PAGANSCleveland punk gods of the post-Dead Boys era.
Of all the bands that burst out of Cleveland in the mid- to late-'70s punk explosion, one of the most unjustly ignored was the Pagans. Despite breaking up in 1979 (they, however, reunited several times since), these grimy bohunks played fast'n'loud piss-and-vinegar garage rock that valued alienation and, at times, extreme bad taste. Led by the honking rasp of Mike Hudson and the rapid-fire guitar of Mike "Tommy Gunn" Metoff, the Pagans never played it safe, nor did they enter the rock & roll wars wanting to win any friends. And this, ultimately, was a good thing, for like their pals the Dead Boys, their anti-star pose and carpe diem attitude meant that their best songs (and there are quite a few) sound as if they were set to auto-destruct at the tune's end...

Possessing more ambition than ready cash, the band pulled together a long-player
from tunes recorded at live shows and during lo-fi sessions held in Hudson's basement
(with everything recorded live to two-track through a PA mixer).
The resulting LP, The Pink Album, issued in a run of 500 copies,
became a collector's item overnight...(AllMusic)
