Product Description
O.G. Seattle rockers and the reverends of the irreverent the Young Fresh Fellows are back with I Think This Is, their first full album since 2001, and 25 years since the release of their ground-breaking first LP, Fabulous Sounds of the Pacific Northwest. Before grunge and way before indie was so indie, Fellows Scott McCaughey, Tad Hutchison, Jim Sangster and Chuck Carroll (and later, Kurt Bloch) were issuing their signature shotgun blasts of punk energy and wry lyricism. I Think This Is is no exception. Produced by Robyn Hitchcock, the album is a compendium of punk, college rock and 60's pop, from the propulsive guitar rawk of ''Shake Your Magazines'' and ''After Suicide,'' to the psych-tinged melancholy of ''The Guilty Ones'' and ''Never Turning Back Again.'' With I Think This Is, the YFF remind us that two guitars, bass and drums, plus a barrel of beer is still the perfect recipe for success. Or maybe failure. But that's cool.


1. The Guilty Ones 2:19
2. Lamp Industries 2:02
3. Suck Machine Crater 2:55
4. Let The Good Times Crawl 2:32
5. Never Turning Back Again 2:21

Gosh - I remember likeing them back in the late '80s when MTV used to show their video for 'Picture Book' on 120 Minutes. I didn't find out until long after that it was a Kinks song. I love the Kinks, but I actually prefer YFF's version just since I head it first.

Also sorta remember the songs 'Debbie Gibson is Pregnant with My 2 headed Love Child" (something like that), and some rude song about Amy Grant not being able to make up her mind if she should sing pop or God songs.
