Northern Ireland natives The Undertones were formed in 1976 and disbanded seven years later. Though they only made a small impression in their day, they've been appreciated more since their demise. The Undertones wedded sharp hooks to incessant driving music and were something like a more Beatle-ish Ramones. This self-titled album was their first full-length release, and it's chock full of spunky pop nuggets.
Songs like "Here Comes the Summer," "Teenage Kicks," "Jimmy Jimmy," and "Family Entertainment" manage to braid angst and hope with anthemic verve. Feargal Sharkey's unique voice has a crisp and clear tenor, flush with vibrato. While he pushes his singing to its upper limits over the furiously rocking band, his voice retains a purity that harks back to the crooners of decades prior. Unable to make any significant inroads in North America, The Undertones were ultimately undone by commercial frustrations. However, their music has aged far better than that of many of their punk and new-wave era contemporaries.
