If The Jam, Oasis and The Sex Pistols had a lovechild through a messy affair. Impressive considering its creative direction was put together by a couple of teenagers. Extremely derivative, but full of energy and the odd memorable track. Good opening and closing tracks. In need of a polish and more sparks of originality, but I still applaud the effort.
