Fuzztones: Lysergic Emanations
Lindsay Hutton, Sounds, 20 April 1985
HEY HEY hey everybody. You were stunned by their debut 45 and transfixed by the live mini album. Here, with the advent of the group's full length elpee, the cult of Fuzz recruitment drive reaches full tilt. This is one band your parents will never approve of, no matter how many Marilyn records they went halfers on.
