"Along with Blondie, Television, and the Ramones, Mumps were pioneers of the NYC CBGBs/Max's scene from 1975-1980, amassing a huge cult following for their wild and unpredictable stage shows, led by the maniacal gyrations of the notorious Lance Loud, the first reality T.V. star. The literate '60s-pop-informed compositions of Kristian Hoffman claimed a lost punk bubble-anthem territory somewhere between the Kinks, Abba, and Wild Man Fischer. Soho News called Mumps a "hard driving, tightly pulled together powerhouse package, with a genuine teen idol out front."This compilation contains everything on their critically acclaimed 1995 retrospective CD Fatal Charm (about which Mojo simply stated "I love it!") plus 10 unreleased songs, extensive new notes in a 24 page all color booklet, plus a live DVD of vintage never-before-seen footage, directed and edited by Dave Markey (director: 1991 - The Year Punk Broke). All tracks digitally remastered in 2005." (Sympathy For The Record Industry)
