Album Review

Canada's early answer to new wave sounded suspiciously like classic '50s and '60s rock & roll with the amps turned up and the lips curled back in a sneer. In a lot of ways, Teenage Head skirts the edge between new wave and punk, often sounding like a slightly more versatile version of the Ramones. Lyrically speaking, it skips from one degeneracy to another and is often a bit on the stupid side (like many other punk classics, come to think of it), but the music is solid enough throughout to make that irrelevant.

These boys know how to rock & roll. This album was the soundtrack to many a Southern Ontario hipster's nights of merriment in the suburbs or r'n'r up at the lake. Gordie Lewis would fry an incredible mélange of punk, rockabilly or roots rock from that old Gibson guitar, Chuck Berry’s influence never far from the surface of his fantastic fret work. At the live shows Nick's drums played like a possessed machine gun behind Steve's chomping and distinctive bass. Frankie was our homegrown Mick Jaeger. They were truly special.

Biography

Formed: 1976 in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada

Genre: New Wave

Years Active: '70s, '80s

Often billed as Canada's answer to the Ramones, Teenage Head were in truth just as much a new wave band as they were a punk rock outfit. They had a similar affection for pre-Beatles rock & roll, especially rockabilly, as well as a sense of trashy fun that made them a terrific party band when they were on. Their songs were unpretentious celebrations of all the classic rock & roll staples: cars, booze, girls, partying, and teenage rebellion. Notorious for inadvertently touching off one of the...
