"It's no surprise that Cleveland has a musical history that includes some of punk's most nihilistic-sounding bands. From the noisy rage of Rocket From the Tombs and Electric Eels to the Pagans—check. These guys were the second wave, along with the Pagans, as this stuff was recorded in '78-'80, instead of the early-to-mid-'70s. They still have a Stooges influence, like the rest of those bands, with violent gigs and wild stage antics, no fashion statements, slogans, or other contrived bullshit. Kneecappers were the antithesis of melodic punk, opting for a gritty, depressive garage rock feel. The tracks vary in length; "Emergency Room" is seven minutes long and all sludgy, molten guitar nastiness, while some of the others ("Blood on the Windshield", "Urban Kill", or "We Will Bury You") are a more aggressive two-to-three minutes, with blazing guitar and mean vocals. There's a mix of cheaply recorded studio stuff and live material. Just look at the song titles and you get a feel for the sound." - "vandaleyes" & rateyourmusic.com
