Lost Lonely Vicious is a punk rock compilation with 31 bands filling 70 minutes. So, this disc is chock-full of music. I use the word punk in its widest meaning as the music varies from postcore to poppunk, from rock 'n roll influenced punk to ska, from female fronted punk to punkabilly. The essence of all the music can be defined by that one word: Punk. Boot To Head Records captured the sounds of bands worldwide as there are contributions from Sweden, USA, Canada and Australia. Somehow it surprises me that there are no bands from the United Kingdom where punk was invented long ago. Anyway, there are quite some names on this record and some I knew about name-wise only. It's interesting to get a chance to hear their music. The overall quality of Lost Lonely Vicious is above average so if you like punk in whatever form or shape, this disc is your thing for sure.

Check that, Boot to Head is one of the best punk and hardcore labels in America, and the reason for that is their insistence on releasing great punk and heavy bands, whether anyone cares or not. For years no one did. Now, nearly everyone does. And their newest compilation release, Lost Lonely…Similar sounding releases
