The Queers - Move Back Home (1995) [2007 Remaster]

Here's the third remastered reissue from The Queers. The Queers are moving back in, so you can forget about turning their bedroom into a den. They sleep all day, never change their clothes, and play some of the most ferociously catchy punk rock in the world, but that doesn't mean they'll kick in for rent. This album tells a moronic tale of some rejects from New England, their failed love lives, their eating habits, their petty gripes, and their dumb pals. Hey, they're singing your life with their words! Remixed & Remastered by Mass Giorgini in 2007.

The Queers - Move Back Home (1995) [2007 Remaster]

Close

A quick scan of the words ("cretin," "psychopath," "rehab," etc.) in the song titles makes it clear that these guys are coming straight out of Ramones-land. And that's just fine, because Move Back Home demonstrates that the Queers are getting better and better at channeling the black leather jacket-clad spirit of their punk forefathers. They, of course, still haven't grown up – Joe still sings about not having a girlfriend and acting like a jerk, but no one else can do it better, save for the Mr. T Experience's Dr. Frank. The best demonstration of how good they've gotten at crafting great pop songs is the fact that it's hard to tell which song is a Brian Wilson cover and which one is an original.
