RENNY WILSON - Punk Ex LP
Insert with liner notes.
Highly recommended.
Nicely priced. One copy only.
Punk Explosion / Extension, or Punk Ex for short, is the latest musical detour from the loins of Canadian avant-pop artist Renny Wilson.
Recalling snotty ’70s punk, cornball classic rock and scratchy ’90s garage punk, the album makes more than subtle hints at the past while painting a clear picture of the future. From the lighter fare of “Youngsters” and “Clean” to the cheeky cock-rock of “Stiffed” and the guttural, cartoonish power-pop of “Escaping Alive,” Punk Ex offers a variety of leather-jacket-bound jams, as one would expect from an album made over so many years.
A unique vision of teenage punk draws on influences from Crass and The Oblivians to the mainstream radio rock of Foreigner and Ted Nugent.
