3 stars The first impression that prevails while you're listening to the opening track " Father Cannot Yell" is a definite feel of proto punk music (although the track clocks at seven minutes). As such, I can cope with some comments that are related this debut with the Velvet. The crazy and hectic closing guitar part is a jewel in the genre.

Some ultra acid feel are experienced while you're listening to "Outside My Door". A dark psyche trip, a complex human experience. A musical battlefield.

Now, I can hardly feel great emotions while listening to this "Monster movie". Fun at best (but not for long), this album doesn't hold too many catchy items. The second side long "Yoo Doo Right" doesn't really bring any background to story.

I quite like the sub-title of "Certif1ed" review: "The Dinosaur of Prog vs the Monster of Punk". You et it all with this!

I rate it with three stars for its historical value. No more.
