BUDDHA_(LP)

Blink 182: Tom DeLonge (vocals, guitar); Mark Hoppus (vocals, bass); Scott Raynor (drums). Recorded at Double Time Studios, San Diego, California in 1995. All tracks have been digitally remastered. Consisting of demos, Blink-182's first album, Buddha, may be a little generic, but it's nevertheless a solid skatepunk record that illustrates the group's flair for speedy, catchy hooks and irreverent humor. There are a few weak cuts, but on the whole, it's a promising debut. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
