I hear The Ramones. Mike DaRonco hears Cheap Trick and The Muffs.
17 Years Review
by Mike DaRonco
When one thinks of GMM Records, it's immediately associated with gruff street punk, drunken oi! punk and a bunch of hardguys/girls that could take on anybody that merely gave them a wrong look. 17 Years don't fit this description at all. Rather, we got this rock out power-pop that could be compared to the likes of Cheap Trick or the Muffs. Not that any of this is light hearted or corny -but admittingly, the fact that a lot of this album sounds the same can make this pretty boring at times- rather this is some of the catchiest three-chord punk that doesn't stretch over into the boundaries of cheesy pop-punk.
