The Ataris/Useless ID
Let it Burn (2001)
jockyfa
Useless I.D. lays down some good tracks on this album… but the Ataris outshine them at almost every turn. This is a band in the process of finding out if they are going big, or going home. Brazil is a long ways to go home to, so hopefully they go big. It's always reassuring to hear a band that gives no apologies for sounding raw… and that is exactly how Useless I.D. sounds. I would suggest getting to the live show if you can, as for this album - well, buy it for the Ataris, and enjoy the "bonus" of having two bands for one low cost…
