D Generation - No Lunch (1996)

Posted By: Shar'EmAll

Date: June 30, 2013

No Lunch is the second album released by New York City glam punk band D Generation. It was their first with Columbia Records after leaving their previous record company. The album was produced by The Cars frontman Ric Ocasek. The album would prove to be D Generation's most critically acclaimed, with reviewers citing New York Dolls and Ramones as strong influences. The tracks "No Way Out", "Capital Offender" and "She Stands There" were taken from the record as singles.

D Generation's eponymous debut album for EMI Records was sunk by a glossy, mainstream production that rendered them more hair-metal than modern-day punk. After the record stiffed and EMI dropped them, the group headed over to Columbia Recrods, where they recorded No Lunch with producer Ric Ocasek. Unlike its predecessor, No Lunch keeps it simple and dirty. D Generation recalls the sleazy hard-rock of proto-punkers like the New York Dolls more heavily than the speedy punk of the Ramones and, occasionally, they sound like the Clash at their most anthemic. In short, they're an angry hard-rock band that plays fast and loose, whether it's the furious "Scorch," the insistent "No Way Out" or the melodic glitz of "Not Dreaming." No Lunch has a few weak patches, particularly when the band tries to slow things down, but it is the album that justifies D Generation's long-simmering hype.
