POINTED STICKS "Perfect Youth" orig Canadian punk SUBHUMANS NM
1980/Canada/Quintessence Records…..here’s a gorgeous original Canadian pressing by this Canadian punk power pop band. The cover is in nice VG++ to NM condition with light corner wear and a small scratch lower left side were there is a small amount of paper missing, otherwise the cover is solid and clean with no splits or delete! The vinyl is in strong VG++ to NM condition with only a handful of near invisible super light inaudible sleeve scuffs. This copy also includes the custom inner sleeve, the inner sleeve has a split on all three sides, otherwise nice. This is a beautiful copy and would make a nice addition to any record collection! Please check my auctions for other rock and psych lp’s. Thanks for looking and good luck should you decide to bid!
Nothing about Perfect Youth sounds half-assed — credit in particular for ending on what might be its best song, "Part of the Noise" — while there are two strong points to the band that anchor everything down. First there's Nick Jones' vocals, high, snotty, but never totally harsh, a delicious little whine (and this is meant as a compliment!). He has a smooth, easy way around his lines that works wonderfully — check the break saluting "the young Canadians" on the title track or the sweet verses on "American Song," sounding like he's gently cascading down the descending arrangement. Meanwhile, Ken Montgomery aka Dimwit brings plenty of energy and skill from his previous Subhumans gig to never simply be a timekeeper, as can be heard in the subtle but strong fills and shifts on songs like "When She's Alone" and a great cover of the Sonics' "The Witch"; he might not be Rat Scabies but he's a good rival to his fellow local drummer Chuck Biscuits. Getting Bob Rock in to handle one of his earliest productions turned out to be an inspired move, with the deft additions of brass on some songs adding extra punch.
Please DO NOT bid if you don't plan to follow through with the transaction Satisfaction Guaranteed. I have been selling records by mail order for many years. Check my feedback and bid with confidence!
