  • Can't Stand the Rezillos is the debut studio album by Edinburgh-based punk band the Rezillos, released on Sire Records on 21 July 1978 and including the top twenty UK hit "Top of the Pops", part of which was used as a jingle on BBC Radio 1. Unusually for a punk rock/new wave group, the album featured several sixties covers, "Glad All Over" (originally a hit for the Dave Clark Five), "Somebody's Gonna Get Their Head Kicked In Tonight" (originally by Fleetwood Mac) and "I Like It", a Gerry & the Pacemakers hit. The record reached number 16 in the UK Albums Chart. Trouser Press called the band "a blast of fresh air compared to the more serious bands of new wave's first charge" and praised the album as "an action-packed document of their pop/camp approach". In 1994, All Time Top 1000 Albums named Can't Stand the Rezillos one of the 50 best punk albums of all time. The compilers claimed that the Rezillos were "exuberant almost to the point of hysteria" creating "a body of work full of verve, style and humour", which this album "encapsulates to perfection". Punk aficionados acclaimed the album. In March 2003, Mojo magazine ranked the LP in its 'Top 50 Punk Albums'. (en)
