Various Artists – Untitled 21 : A Juvenile Tribute To The Swingin’ Utters


For over 20 years San Francisco’s Swingin’ Utters have been contributing awesome songs to the punk community without getting the same amount of recognition for it as other punkrock outfits out of California. Thanks to Red Scare, there is now a tribute that fits them… a whopping 31 bands paying hommage on one album!

Going from Fucked Up and Dropkick Murphys to Teen Idols and Cobra Skulls, they’re all on here along with a bunch of young upstarts. And while most of these bands all stay fairly true to the original versions, this album is a pleasure to listen to. If I had to pick two favorites, it would have to be Useless ID’s version of “Unpopular Again” and Off With Their Heads’ take on “Next In Line”. Do yourself a favor, check out this tribute and then pick up a couple of Swingin’ Utters albums while you’re at it.
Score: 7 out of 10
