Plastic Surgery Disasters / In God We Trust, Inc. Review

07/13/2005 4:17 AM, AMG


This reissue compiles the Dead Kennedys' follow-ups to the hardcore classic Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables: the eight-song EP In God We Trust, and the full-length Plastic Surgery Disasters. If neither record is quite on the same level as Fresh Fruit, they frequently come close; the Kennedys' hyperspeed aggression and Jello Biafra's righteously snotty rants haven't been toned down a bit. The two-fer reissue is an excellent way to dig deeper into the band's catalog. ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide
