One of the best Boston bands you've probably never heard of. Both Clay Tarver from Chavez and Kenny Chambers from Moving Targets (both guitar) cut their teeth in Bullet LaVolta. The Gift sounds like Black Flag, Naked Raygun, Motorhead and Dag Nasty all mixed together and was produced by Paul Q. Kolderie. Kenny and Clay just fucking wail all over this album. This was released on Taang! Records in American and Sub Pop in Europe. The band were close friends with the Lemonheads and toured Europe together in 1989, also Clay Tarver and the Lemonheads's Jesse Peretz were Harvard roommates. This album is long out of print and fucking amazing so grab this shit up.
