Sorry Ma, Forgot to Take Out the Trash is a slight but enjoyable debut album from the Replacements, capturing the quartet halfway between the loud, fast punk rock of the Ramones and Hüsker Dü and the classic rock raunch of the Rolling Stones. Most of the record speeds by in a flurry of ragged guitars, rushed rhythms, and hoarse vocals — it's about the sound, not the songs. However, there are a handful of songs that indicate the Replacements are capable of depth, including the bluesy Johnny Thunder tribute "Johnny's Gonna Die," the tongue-in-cheek "I Hate Music," and the near-anthemic "Shiftless When Idle."
