Virgins with a miscarriage… it seems impossible but former New Mexican Disaster Squad singer/guitarist Sam Johnson managed to distill a solid album from this paradox. That raw and rusty voice of his is still intact and obviously invokes a lot of NMDS flashbacks but that 80s hardcore feel they had going, rears its ugly head just as well. Even though Virgins is more melodic than NMDS ever was. If Dillinger Four would cover New Mexican Disaster Squad, I imagine this is what it would sound like.
It’s in-your-face punkrock that doesn’t so much tackle political and social topics as it throws pipebombs at them and along with some nasty yet tasty punkrock sounds, I’d say that Virgins did a great job of having their cherry popped.
Score: 7.5 out of 10
