The Donnas - Get Skintight [RM, Purple/Pink Swirl] [Vinyl]

1999’s Get Skintight was The Donnas’ third album in three years, but, with such bangers as “I Didn’t Like You Anyway,” “You Don’t Wanna Call,” and “Hyperactive,” the girls show no sign of songwriting fatigue. Production by Steve and Jeff McDonald of Redd Kross adds a little bite to the songs, but they’re already showing their teeth—the wannabe boyfriend putdowns are as ferocious (“A boston baked bean is the size of your head/I heard you even wet your bed”) as they are funny, and the libidos are, um, lively. There’s also a Mötley Crüe cover (“Too Fast for Love”), but The Donnas’ songs are better. Remastered for vinyl by Mike Milchner at Sonic Vision, and reissued complete with a 4-page insert featuring the original insert plus band commentary. Purple with pink swirl vinyl!
