SONIC BOOM OF THE WEEK

SELF REDUCTION • VICTIMS

Death is the only way to go, and if you can glamorize the ultimate solution to excess leisure time, allude to Socialist Slammerers Against The N-N-N . . . and be a Commie plugger you’ve got the Alternative Chart sussed.  Slightly Television, but slightly better than most channels of aural communication.  Makes absolutely no mistakes.  This week’s Single Of The Year is The Reds track, Self Reduction.  (B-side: Victims.)
