Chemical People - The Singles 88/98 LP (Hey Suburbia/Italy)

Listening Notes: I am nostalgic for very little music of my youth, but dang it I still really like early Chems. Max Factor heirs, porn positive SoCal punk pop, junk food lovers whose love of melodies connects them musically to the likes of All, Big Drill Car, and Samiam, and a welcomed release for Cruz records devotees.

Mood: Make up free Kiss
