"If you're fed up with pretentious, overproduced albums and long for the sound of simple, rough hewn guitar rock, then the Milkshakes are for you. I personally love this band, but most of my friends have never understood my taste in music. Every time I listen to this album, I want to go out and buy a cheap electric guitar; a couple of cases of beer and then sit in my garage with three other dimwits like myself and crank out Milkshake tunes."

"First off, anything these blokes recorded is worth checking out. (NOTE: Most of their back catalog is rare and extremely hard to find.) I have all of their back catalog except for their 4th release and every records SMOKES, baby! Talk about underrated! Sheesh! These gents could have snuffed out most of what is called GARAGE ROCK (The White Stripes, The Strokes, etc.) these days. Here's my advise, if you are into good GARGAGE/BEAT rock n' roll, you cannot lose by buying this here CD. In fact, buy all of the CD's listed on this website and PLEASE SUPPORT REAL AUTHENTIC GARAGE ROCK N' BEAT. Well...what are you waiting for...........start your MILKSHAKES collection today."
Good times a go go

"Billy Childish, man of over 200 record releases, rocks out with 30 of The Milkshakes most garage stomping cuts. If you like 60's garage punk this the cream of the crop."

"The amount of garage rock post 1970 is probably larger than most people realize. And the 80's was a prime time for these bands to get back that groove. Many were quite good, but Thee Milkshakes is topnotch, grade A rock and roll that is serviced wonderfully with this loaded disc. I've heard maybe half their proper albums and all of them are excellent. A huge testament to what these guys could churn out with such a simple setup. Underrated and well worth anyone's time who remotely enjoys garage rock."
