Saccharine Trust's "Paganicons LP" is a timely reminder of California's weird punk roots, deep within the SST catalog. Tracks like the sardonic "I Have" and defiant "We Don't Need Freedom" serve up a chaotic energy that explodes the contradictions of punk ideology. Featuring a lyric insert, this vinyl offers a chance to scrutinize their irreverent social commentary, while the tension between chaos and insight keeps the listener on their toes.
