Heinous cover! This might be the crappiest/ creepiest cover in FLA history. Anyway – to their credit or detriment, these guys don’t look too comfortable on the back cover. They’re no doubt thinking – “if mom comes home it’ll be bad – if dad comes home – FUCKKKK”. We’ll blame the early 80’s and Tampa for their “look”. Otherwise, this record is pretty fukkin awful bad new wave glam glop. The goofy ass singing leaves no hope for redemption. There is some “shredding” guitar from Dorsey Martin – who later joined the far more manly band – the Pink Lincolns. At least one more 7” and 12” exist from these goofballs.
Dorsey was in Rat Cafeteria, too. I recently saw Dorsey on Hillsborough Ave in Tampa, heading east toward the casino in a mini-van. He still has the same haircut as in this pic!
