If You Swear, You'll Catch No Fish

The best of the best. Canadian punkers--headed by the oriental Mr. Chi-Pig--recorded this seminal album in Turkey of all places. Bar none, the greatest hardcore album of all time. I first bought it in 1986, and have listened to it 1000s of times since. Every song is a cherished classic, from "Devil's Voice" to the irreverant "Snapping Turtle". Try to buy the vinyl version, as the liner notes and photos/artwork are amazing. This album changed my life. Buy it. Listen to it. You will never regret it.

The album is cool. I saw SNFU play live in Mankato, MN in 1985, and loved them as a teenager, but in today's world the audio quality comes across as pretty bad. It needs to be either remastered or re-recorded to capture its true awesomeness. If this CD was digitally enhanced to bring out Mr. Chi Pig's voice more, and balance the two guitars in stereo, with the bass and drums in the middle...it would blow your minds even more. Are the original master tapes available? I'll remaster it for free!
