The Inevitable Backlash - Sex For Safety EP (Hegemony)

The Inevitable Backlash features former members of Saccharine Trust and the Rollins Band and sounds like late 80's SST bands like SWA and DC3. Close to a late-era Naked Raygun crossed with a touch of butt rock. "Le Fou Rire" starts off with some Greg Ginn-ish guitar licks before kicking the tempo up a bit. Fast driving riffage and one acoustic number—in total, five songs just under 13 minutes recorded live without any overdubs. Bring on the full length. - mark

It's that "touch of butt rock" that really makes this review work...
