Ramones - Animal Boy CD

 gabba gabba yeah!
Ten years after their 1st album and the Ramones were still knocking out albums full of winning ditties. All the classis Ramones traits are here icluding the gonzoid rock humour of Crummy Stuff and Eat That Rat, the successful experimentation with hardcore on the frantic Animal Boy. The band also demonstrate that they are capable of penning classic ballads with She Belongs To Me (easily the match of the Beach Boys or the Stones). Animal Boy, like the other Ramones albums of this period are hopelessly underrated. In fact everything they did for Sire warrants serious investigation and Animal Boy really is as good as anywhere to begin. Enjoy!!

 Disappointing.
After being in a slump for a couple years and the releasing Too Tough To Die (which was one of ther best albums) was amazing. Can they pull off another great album? NOPE. The production is really bad and it just sounds like they are tired. They tried to pull off another Too Tough To Die, but they failed. It contains some good songs like "Animal Boy" and "Bonzo Goes To Bitburg." But I think that they should have left the political songs to the Clash and kept singing about sniffing glue.
