If so, then World War IX has already one the first battle with its album Panic Attack. Though often used as insults, the words drunk, loud and obnoxious are taken as compliments when applied to punk rock. WWIX takes the sound back to its inebriated origins with bands like the Sex Pistols. While other so-called punk bands are writing songs, WWIX writes anthems. From the first track on Panic Attack, Thank God It's Monday, WWIX establishes its anti-disestablishment creed and carries it throughout the entire CD with tracks like Body Dump, Hungry For Beer and Level 10. This fun album will go down smooth and fast like chugging a six-pack of Pabst Blue Ribbon.

WORLD WAR IX: Panic Attack (Elis Eil)
Tough-sounding debut by what may be New York City's best straightahead punk band right now...jetbomb rhythms meet total down-and-out attitude in the NY streetwalking cheater way that makes you want to exhume Stiv Bators' corpse. This is tough stuff, from the guttural CRUNCH of the guitars to the sentiment expressed by such odes du life as 'Fucked Up All the Time' and 'Hungry For Beer.' Production-wise it's ace-I want this guy to produce my album (if I ever get around to making one before de bomb goes off). Snarling hate voiced by a rag-taggedy bunch o'outsiders who don't give a fuck-what could be more affirming in post apocalyptic Amerika? Bombs away, baby, as the Jonestown said (special credit for covering GG's immortal, NYC Tonite...cool!)

From the scum-laden, misanthropic streets of New York City come four upstarts called World War IX. Their goal? To get "fucked up all the time" as their song blatantly states. Their music is reminiscent of the negative Hate Pop of the Jabbers, only with better songwriting and a few more brain cells. I plan to listen to this CD and lose a few brain cells of my own.

WORLD WAR IX - Panic Attack (www.eliseil.com) I had the opportunity to see WWIX at CBGB, sharing a bill with Good Grief and The Nerve! Their CD can't even come close to the shear manic-ness of this band. But that should not exclude one from wanting to listen to this wild
