The Last belonged to the LA/Hermosa Beach scene and were pals of punk/hardcore bands like Black Flag or the Descendents; but they didn't play hardcore and actually not even punk, rather a blend of rough pop, surf and underground from the 60s with a hint of punk rock - like a combination of the Beach Boys, Velvet Underground and the Ramones. Good single. [7]
The Last sind die Beach Boys, die Ramones und Velvet Underground - und zwar auf einmal. Der Punk-Einfluß ist vielleicht nicht so stark, eher klingt mir das Ganze wie rauhere Sachen aus den Sechzigern. Gut.
