Welcome !      Swingin' Utters Angels Pissing On Your Head Album: BYO Split Series 2 Genres: Punk A run-of-the-mill South Bay punk anthem for sad sacks everywhere. Punk might not be dead, but mediocrities like this aren't exactly keeping it in rosy good health.

But man, I sure wish Bonnel and his boys could've married the sentiments to music that's a little more inventive or emotive. The Thin Lizzy-like harmony guitars that open the song are nice, but they quickly dissipate in the wake of the band's generic three-chord riffing. I mean, just exactly how "punk" is it to be a pale imitation of The Clash or Sham 69? I love those bands, too, but I'd rather hear someone build on their legacy than reduce it to its blandest elements.       Dan Epstein     Dan Epstein is a Los Angeles-based journalist and pop-culture historian whose work has appeared in L.A.
