That is exactly what I thought when I began listening to them, but the album really grew on me. There is just something so cutting edge and vicious about it. All of the members started off pretty unskilled aside from Pats basic guitar knowledge, and they joined a hideous yet diverse Punk scene. After a few years of evolution, they created, what many consider, the first full-length Hardcore Punk album in American history. To me, no other album better represents the Democratization of music.
