Album Notes & Community Reviews

Serving as the sophomore effort from the West London punks, 'God's Lonely Men' delivers a blistering, high-speed barrage of three-chord rock and roll. The band maintains their Ramones-indebted simplicity but benefits from slightly more muscular, cohesive production values. It remains a highly regarded, unpretentious slice of classic British '77-style punk aggression.
