Found on Bandcamp while looking for their 1987 LP Endlessly Rocks The Cradle. Sometimes I get lucky and find a band puts their discography on Bandcamp and it is much better quality than what I have. Unfortunately, the aforementioned release is vinyl-sourced and is not any better than my copy. HOWEVER, they also posted an unreleased album produced by Mitch Easter called Drive In,. also from 1987. It is quite good. Jangly/power pop sounding, and IMO a more consistent sounding album. Quite a few gems on it. I like how on Bandcamp you can listen to the entire songs before deciding to purchase, plus a good way to check for vinyl noise at the start/end of tracks. Granted, my hearing is not the best, but this sounds pristine to me. Wish their first release also sounded this good.
