Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album has a Bayesian average rating of 69.7/100, a mean average of 68.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.5.

14 songs in just over 15 minutes. A perfect descriptor of what the 1980s would have to offer in American punk music. The hardcore style was sharpening its edges and trimming off what wasn't needed...boiling down to songs that are barely one minute in length each. As Lester Bangs said in his quasi-review of this album in 1982, "Hardcore is the womb."
They didnt have the agression of Minor Threat, the talent of Bad Brains, the cool guitars of Black Flag or the importance of The Germs, but it exemplifies everything fun about the genre.
more punk rubbish

The 12YO version of me that listened to this over and over on cassette would have sworn this compact little gem was longer than 15 minutes.

A 14 year old version of me would probably give this a chance and like it.
One of the best hardcore albums ever!

This is the greatest 15 minute "LP" I own! It's literally every great element of rock and roll and punk and hardcore just jammed into the amount of time it takes me to get to work! It's amazing! And if you wanna know my vote for greatest sub 1 minute song ever - it's "Red Tape" all the way! OMG! It's got drum fills and a couple quick guitar solos all stuffed in there! You gotta hear it to believe how perfect it is.

Fun, and certainly not bad. Bit too short though...so it's difficult to rate.
