Free Music Notes for I'm Stranded
Free Music Review: Top notch, brutal Aussie rock'n'roll!
Hit: 5 Stars
This is the kind of album by the kind of band that blows stupid labels like "punk" or "pre-punk" outta the water. The Saints pretty much follow in the footsteps of all the great rock'n'roll bands who had the guts to play music with soul and play it loud. F.M. radio would be so much better today if the network dweebs who claimed to love rock'n'roll had played this type of stuff instead of inventing the lame a#%s "classic rock " genre which pretty much sentenced music fans to 25 years of Zep and Framton! In the late 1970's "I'm Stranded " set a new high water mark for red-blooded rock'n'roll. Go buy it....NOW!Free Music Review: Seminal and enduring

(I'M) STRANDED was the first punk rock album released anywhere on the planet (the Aussies got there first!) Musically it exemplifies much of the genre, with its full-speed guitars and raw sound, but the Saints went a bit beyond. Their excellent songwriting featured a few more chords than was the norm later, they weren't afraid of guitar solos or slow songs, and instead of the usual punk yelp, the vocals were delivered with a wonderfully cool drawl/sneer -- comparable to Dave Vanian on the first Damned album. More than two decades later, this album remains an unbeatable adrenaline rush.Free Music Review: Never mind the Sex Pistols, the Saints kick major butt!

"(I'm) Stranded" is the greatest punk rock album of all-time, perhaps even the greatest rock album, period. The early Saints played Rolling Stones-style raunch 'n' roll with a crude ferocity that made the Sex Pistols look like the overproduced concept group they actually were. "(I'm) Stranded" is punk rock without the B.S. politics/posturing of the Clash or just about any other band calling itself punk in the late 1970s. The perfect soundtrack music for polishing off a six-pack. Buy this sucker now while it's still available domestically!Free Music Review: If it wasn't for the Saints, you wouldn't be here!

I've told some people I used to work with who had minimal appreciation for the punk bands that started it all, "If it wasn't for them, you wouldn't be here." They would just tell me I was full of it, but it's true. The Saints helped define punk rock and this record is a testament to the fact that, at the time they were brilliant. As time moved on, so did the band and they weren't able to recapture their original glory and fury. "I'm Stranded" is a must for any collection. Oh, well. At least we've got the music, it still survives!Free Music Review: extremely good album

This is one of the best punk albums. It is a lot like the dead boys, but actually slightly better, higher quality songs. And even more energy. If you like dead boys, you'll definetly like this. messin' with the kid is a great bob dylan-esque song. But the rest are just great intense rocknroll. Definetly buy this if you like stooges and early punk. seriously. its so good. It's way better than the clash, pistols, maybe dead boys, as good as the damned's debut. Its so good.
