2024 repress. After a debut single in 1977, forward-thinking Edinburgh punk band The Rezillos signed to Sire, leading the band to record their acclaimed debut Can't Stand the Rezillos in New York, where co-produced Bob Clearmountain drew out the best of their abilities. The anthemic "Top of the Pops" reached the UK top-20 and spirited punk covers of The Dave Clark Five's "Glad All Over," Gerry & The Pacemakers' "I Like It," and Fleetwood Mac's "Somebody's Gonna Get Their Head Kicked In Tonight" added to the appeal. The band would soon split and reform as The Revillos, but nothing beats the power of this unmatched debut LP. Four bonus tracks included, great stuff!
