“Public animal” GG Allin plus the Jabbers equals simple, 77-style punk rock with the usual lyrics and GG’s fuck you attitude. (KS) [6] Compilation of early recordings/singles; mostly catchy mid-tempo punk. If you're into melodic KBD punk rather than dirty scum punk this is a great record. (bj) [8]
Public Animal GG Allin und die Jabbers, heraus kommt einfacher 77er-Punk mit GG’s Texten und der typischen Fuck-You Attitude. Kann man mögen oder nicht, jegliche weitere Gefühlsregungen sind überflüssig. (KS)
