Dirty Rotten Imbeciles-Dirty Rotten LP + Violent Pacification EP

There's nothing like some early D.R.I. to get your day started...Even if your day started at about 2:00 pm. I really fucking hate Sundays...

I'll admit that "Dealing With It" is the far superior album. "Dirty Rotten LP" is just really fucking bad when played back to back with "Dealing With It". What we have here is a band that isn't fully fleshed out. The band at least exuded talent in their later releases and this serves best as a nice look back at the band that would eventually define crossover...

The problem here, more or less, is that the band playing on this record sounds like your run of the mill hardcore band steeped in mediocrity, instead of their other, more superior forms...As in, a hardcore band playing metal and later as a metal band with "punk" vocals. If you already like D.R.I., listen to this record. If you are just getting into them, please steer clear until you have immersed yourself into the whole of the rest of their discography. It's not so much that this record is bad, it's just really bad because D.R.I. was the band behind it.

Included also is the "Violent Pacification" EP, which I feel almost makes up for the "Dirty Rotten LP". Check it out...Enjoy!

Dirty Rotten Imbeciles-Dealing With It

Dirty Rotten Imbeciles or DRI is pretty much the first, and the best when it comes to crossover. Some asshole will probably come along and talk about some super obscure band that came before that was faster and "crossed over" prior to DRI's formation...Fuck, I might even know of some...But thinking long and hard on something as trivial as that is completely fucking pointless. This album and "Crossover" are my favorite records in DRI's catalog. I am not much for "Dirty Rotten LP" as some purists might be, because it is of way lower quality and sucks the shit out of Martha Stewart's anal cavity. To me, "Dealing With It" is the definitive DRI album. Enjoy!
