DeBaser hosts a single long-form review of The Stick Men by pretazzo. The review presents the Philadelphia group as a fiercely experimental, abrasive funk-punk act from the early 1980s. Their two early albums were compiled on Insatiable (2001). The writing is intellectual, ecstatic and emphatically positive.
