About
An awful lot of punk sarcasm courses through 1982’s <i>Zipper Catches Skin</i>. It’s particularly biting when Cooper takes aim at the shallowness of ’80s culture; he howls the ruthlessly crunchy “Make That Money (Scrooge’s Song)” from a greedy banker's perspective, and the zippy New Waver “I Like Girls” stars a slimy, Porsche–driving womanizer. Backing him are some of the hardest guitars since the ’70s; the staccato riffs driving the slasher-flick ode “Tag, You’re It” are as sharp as razor blades.
