The album is very enjoyable, it’s a classic well-done piece but still immature and partially out of focus. If you don’t know The Fixx, they might truly captivate you.

Blue Vomit played an almost equally important role as their more famous heirs in the evolution of the Italian punk scene. Seven tracks where hysterical speed and iconoclastic urgency are dominant, and the dark, introspective despair of Nerorgasmo is still a distant shadow.

The audience goes wild, participating with chants, stage diving, and pogo in the best hardcore tradition. All the songs are for the occasion modernized and, why not, metalized, evident in the solos and double bass drum hits.
