So I remember seeing this a whole lot when I first moved out here.
Boy Elroy (1983)
Let's face it the cover is terrible. The band name is pretty terrible too.
Consider the back cover too. I mean, that attempted mustache alone....
That's not Art Direction so much as self sabotage.
However the actual record itself is great. No really. It is.
A Twin Cities band that could have easily played with either of the two Minneapolis bands that aren't Prince you're thinking of when I said "Twin Cities"
Vintage squirrelly high school punk rock that doesn't really give a shit (see aforementioned mustache). Absolutely a lost classic that somebody needs to revive.
I'm not even kidding.
