    The Detroit budget-punks follow last year's eponymous art-scuzz by zinging through 12 anthemic amp-melters in 26 minutes. [Feb 2011, p.989]

    So, yeah, Tyvek (on this album anyway) are pretty trad-punk. Which is not all that bad. When one wants to listen to something that sounds like old punk rock but isn't actually old punk rock, one could do a lot worse than listen to these guys.

Listen to it the way its supposed to be listened to: on your mom's old stereo system, in your basement, turned up so loud that you can't hear your neighbors screaming at you, or the police bustin up your door. After listening to the album, it feels needless to say, it is a debut that leads to something else. The dirtiness, the scratchiness, the raw sizzling **** It takes lo-fi ideas and nurtures them with heroin. Put on some sort of speed that's fast but heavy. Feels really good turned up loud. This album is gritty, messy. But it feels excellent. Oh ya, some good songs are Pricks In A Car, 4312, and Underwater To.… Full Review »
