Folks who keep up with the Facebook page know by now that I've been a big fan of 
Naked Raygun
 for years. So I started foaming at the mouth when I heard they were recording new material. Of course, I wasn't sure if we were going to get 
Throb Throb
 era 
NR
 or 
Raygun... Naked Raygun
 era. Kinda neither on this 
2 song 7' release. 
The sound leans more towards an in between point placed somewhere in the middle of 
All Rise
 & 
Raygun... Naked Raygun
, but skipping over the quality of 
Jettison
 & 
Understand?
.
Though I can't expect a lot from a band that hasn't recorded in like, 12 years, this left me satisfied as an 
NR
 fan. Not completely blown away, but it didn't piss me off. It's another  item for the 
NR
 section in my record collection. I'm waiting to see if they shake off the rust on their sound over the next few 
7"
 they release. Hopefully they'll release a collection of these songs on disc or better yet, release a full record. Fingers crossed for another 
Jettison
. (Yeah, I expect too much)
