Valborg - Glorification Of Pain - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Tuff Darts' self-titled 1978 debut is a gritty, high-energy slice of New York punk and power pop with a sharp, sarcastic bite. Emerging from the legendary CBGB scene, the band blends tough-guy swagger with clever songwriting and tight musicianship. Tracks like Inch(Your Love Is Like) Nuclear WasteInch and InchAll for the Love of Rock 'n' RollInch combine sneering vocals with punchy riffs and hook-laden choruses. There's a dark humor running through songs like InchMy Guitar Lies Bleeding in My Arms,Inch showing a band that doesn't take itself too seriously-even while rocking hard. Produced by Bob Clearmountain, the album has a polished sound that doesn't undercut it's raw attitude. Though short-lived, Tuff Darts captured the spirit of late-'70s New York with this underrated gem.
