"Forget Green Day, Blink 182, Rancid, or just about any other band calling themselves "punk." The Candy Snatchers' self-titled debut rocks with enough energy and anti-PC attitude to level the hordes of radio-friendly "hardcore" bands that are popping up everywhere nowadays.Along with the New Bomb Turks and the Oblivians, the Candy Snatchers are one of the few bands that are bringing nasty Stooges and Dead Boys-inspired punk rock into the 1990s.If you're lucky enough to still believe that rock 'n' roll is the music of irresponsibility and arrested development, do yourself a tremendous favor and get this CD pronto!"
The best album of the 90's

"O.K. folks this record is 100% pure raunch'n'roll mayhem! The Candy Snatchers rip into their tunes like no other band currentlly calling themselves "rock'n'roll". There is a certain element of danger and violence lurking on this record that ain't so subtle. This album kicks right into sonic overdrive and just keeps gettin' wilder and meaner. Larry May tears his voice to bloody shreds as the rest of the band slash and burn through one blazing song after the next. This stuff is just plain GREAT. Period. These guys played to an almost empty house in Toronto and STILL TORE THE DARN ROOF OFF OF THE PLACE! Really kids, The mighty Candy Snatchers give it their all. The least that YOU could do is worship them like they deserve to be worshipped!"
