While most of the Jam-inspired mods were out on the town on their Vespas, showing off their cool threads and talking about the young idea, the Gas were sulking and pouting at home, leaving only occasionally to barge into the club and confront their girlfriend (who was dancing to Northern Soul with a member of the Chords or the Jolt) in an embarassing screaming row. Perhaps the angriest of the neo-mod bands, their anger wasn't in the least political; check out some of their song titles: "Ignore Me," "The Finger," "Definitely Is A Lie," "Losing My Patience." We very much like their album and all of the singles we've heard, but this one has a distorted, thundering sound to it that is particularly appealing.
