Dr Matt Destruction - Curly Sue

Long awaited impressions tracks by tracks from 
germsburn07 of the old official Hives forum :

Constipation: Really sounds like Nic on lead vocals but the chorus has a different voice which sounds like it could be Pelle (especially at the end, "diarrheaaaaa"). Speaking of the chorus, this is one of thes funniest things I've ever heard. It makes me think of Devo. Also at the very beginning, it sounds like theyre gonna play the Bad Brains' How Low Can A Punk Get

Feet: Again this sounds so much like a young Nic, this is the first Sushi song I had heard before this and the ska element of it kind of bothered me, but Chris' drumming on here is really good.

Ramanda: Now this is Pelle on lead vocals. I agree that the Cheap Shots version is better than this one, but this isnt too bad either. Sounds like Nic has some distorted backing vocals on this. I always liked the guitar solo on this one, but it sounds like it was put lower in the mix. Also I don't know if anyone has the lyrics for Ramanda but is he singing "In the shower washing off my dick?"

Nymphomatic Dentists: "Getting a boner, getting ready to bone her." This one sounds like both Pelle and Nic are singing lead with Pelle doing some sort of falsetto. I like the guitar riffs on this. I read once that people used to compare them to the Dickies. I could see that comparison with this song.

Radio Boss: I have no clue who is singing lead on this one, but whoever it is, it sounds like their vocals were sped up to Chipmunk style. Nice bass solo in the middle followed by a great guitar solo. I think this is probably the catchiest to my ears of the bunch. I liked the abrupt ending too.

We've Got Hives: This is definitely Pelle singing lead and doing little skippy de beep bop thing in the vocals. Nic on background vocals again, more good punk rocking.
