This was released in 1996, on Lobster Records. The lead singer has a very young sounding snotty voice and the guitarist and the drummer sound very talented. The thing that distinguishes Joystick from all of the other bands, is that their songs poke fun at various things (A grand band makes fun of the punk scene). The lead of Joystick can also sing really fast, and he sounds like Greg Graffin in the way he rhymes. Very fast good punk rock that is expected from Lobster Records.
Rating:7.5/10
