2008, Epitaph
The back cover of the CD proudly proclaims 14 songs, 23 minutes. The Red Aunts' first album for Epitaph Records, true to the punk ethic of this record label, runs like a Ramones record. Once one song is over, another one starts, with the same manic energy of its predecessor. Alienation seems to be a theme on the album, particularly songs like Krush and Hate (which contains the lyric I hate everyone but you). But instead of being angry, the music seems celebratory (particularly Mota and the opening track, Freakathon, which is their standard). Even though the songs seem like blueprint punk, slide guitars and unexpected changes keep the songs from being predictable, which is often a problem with much of the music on the Epitaph label. ~ Brian Flota, All Music Guide
