Description
Originally perceived as a novelty surf act due to the first album, subsequent recordings showed them to be a fierce garage rock and roll band, in the mold of the 13th Floor Elevators and The Seeds. -- Wikipedia

THE AMAZINGLY RARE
!!! TEST PRESSING !!!
=AND=
!!! NEAR-MINT !!!
"Everything is original on Drop Out, though sources of
inspiration aren't far off at any turn, however reused and
remade.
"Codeine" has a more epic swoop and cautionary feel than
the Sonics gave to "Strychnine," and "I Saw My Death in a
Dream Last Night" isn't quite the Electric Prunes, but the
same sort of not-quite-borrowing crops up song for song, and
not too badly at that.
Some songs, such as "I Can't Pretend" and "This Ain't My
Time," have just enough of a crisp kick to remind you that
they were recorded in 1980 rather than 15 years earlier."
