Our Take

Ah, D.O.A. 1978, what a blast from the past! This album is like a time machine throwing us back to the punk rock heyday of the late 70s. With their raw, unapologetic sound, this Canadian band delivers a punch to the gut with each and every track.

From the relentless energy of "The Enemy" to the rebellious spirit of "World War 3," D.O.A. 1978 doesn't hold back. Frontman Joey Shithead's snarling vocals cut through the noise like a chainsaw, leaving you feeling exhilarated and slightly bruised.

The production may be a bit rough around the edges, but that's all part of the charm. It's like listening to a live show in your own living room - sweaty, intense, and undeniably punk.

Tracks like "Fucked Up Ronnie" and "Disco Sucks" are anthems for the disillusioned and disaffected, capturing the essence of the punk movement in all its gritty glory. D.O.A. 1978 is a reminder of a time when music was raw, unfiltered, and unapologetically loud.

So, if you're in the mood for a trip down punk rock memory lane, crank up the volume and let D.O.A. 1978 transport you back to a time when safety pins were fashion statements and rebellion was the name of the game. This album may be over 40 years old, but its rebellious spirit is as fresh as ever.
