emusicIt's the return of the ignoroids. D.O.A. are back as a three-piece: Joe Kiethley, Brian Goble, and Ken Jensen. Straight-ahead classic D.O.A. punk. Produced by John Nomeansno Wright.


"A surprising comeback is that of Vancouver's D.O.A., who split up in '89 with a series of emotional farewell gigs but couldn't stay dead. Not only that , but the (now) trio goes back to their early '80s solid punk sound eschewing the more commercial hard rock of their later days: "Too Fuckin' Heavy" even sounds like a riffing update of Hardcore '81's "Fucked Up Baby/Ronnie." Joey "Shithead" Keithley's distinctive growl always sounded best on top of fast and angry guitars, as it is here on such burners as "I Played the Fool," the AIDS-aware "Use Your Raincoat," and the opening "Already Dead," while the best songs are written and by bassist (former Subhumans vocalist) Brian "Wimpy Roy" Goble, such as the anti-boob tube "The Living Dead" and the closing "Phantom Zone," Both pure, mid-tempo punk at its best, with big guitars and memorable tunes. And kudos for the ozone conscious "Hole in the Sky," a song Al Gore would like if his wife had better taste. A fine welcome back and a return to a better earlier form." - Rockpool
