It's Go2 that's not so hot.
Word, ERawk. The cover of
Go2 is much, much better than the music.
White Music, however, is teh awesome.

Yup, fucked that up. I was thinking that Go2 was first. White Music is a good disc.
I stand by the assessment of Damned Damned Damned though. It's lumbering and, well, boring. Rudimentary. "Machine Gun Etiquette" stomps the shit out of it.

To hear them tell it, Grand Champeen.
Centro-matic seems to work as well. I love that record but, they've been making really amazing records since then.

Although it would be very unfair to call it crap mclusky's first album is crap compared to the following two (but then again many records are).

Foetus. Those first two albums suck. I mean, I could see what he was trying to do, but...ecch. There are two things called "bass" and "focus". Then he became awesome on Hole. Really and truly fucking awesome.

Most all of that early punk rock was rudimentary. So what? That was part of it's charm, sweeping away the old guard and creating a new foundation.
The first Damned album beat the shit out of the followup record, in my opinion.
