Review by Adrian Niculae

Stiff Little Fingers' album Gotta Gettaway is a punk rock masterpiece that showcases the band's raw energy and political consciousness. From the opening track "Gotta Gettaway" to the closing anthem "Tin Soldiers," the album is a relentless assault on the establishment and a call to arms for the disenfranchised.

The band's signature sound, characterized by Jake Burns' snarling vocals and the driving rhythm section of Ali McMordie and Brian Faloon, is in full force on tracks like "Suspect Device" and "Alternative Ulster." But the album also features some of the band's more melodic and introspective songs, such as "Wasted Life" and "Nobody's Hero."

What sets Gotta Gettaway apart from other punk albums of the era is the band's willingness to tackle social and political issues head-on. The lyrics address topics such as sectarian violence in Northern Ireland, police brutality, and the pitfalls of conformity. This gives the album a sense of urgency and relevance that still resonates today.
