I've finally decided on my favourite lp of all time.

Zero Boys-Vicious Circle

Bought the reissue today because there was two songs I'd not heard on it.
This record NEVER fails to blow me away. anyone who likes punk rock should own this record. While your at it,get the History Of lp too.

Now I know where MP get their riffs from

 

[Janer]

Checked my HD and I appear to have Vicious Circle.
I can understand why you like this.

 

[Janer]

They're ok....Zombie Vandals are far better, I assumed you would have preferred them as they're that type of genre type sound.

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

Zombie Vandals? That's a woeful name.

 

[Janer]

You don't know of them?
They're right down your street, American NY early 80's Punk which I know you like.

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

Found a myspace for them. you could not be more wrong. So generic,no character, even Stigma being involved could not save them. Also,'99 is not early 80's.
For me the context of where and when has a lot to do with how good a record is.

Nice note from the wife of the dead guitar player on Amazon

Long live the Zero Boyz!, October 15, 2003 By Sheila Howe (Naples, Florida) - See all my reviews
The Zero Boyz were very popular in the 80's in Indianapolis. I was what you would call a "groupie" of the Zero Boyz, and ultimately married the guitar player, Terry Howe (Hollywood).
The band had a very hard edge and was just getting started when they broke up. I have a collection of Zero Boyz albums that I have passed on to my twin boys, because their father Terry passed away 2 years ago. I have always loved punk rock bands, and I think the Zero Boyz were one of the best!

Funny that she only gives it 3 stars though.
Everyone else gave it 5.

I should have put early sounding 80's.
I also think you're being very harsh on them, if they're generic plz point me to more bands like that so I can add them to my collection.
