When we were introduced, I couldn't help but react. You're all about the donuts and zero hour contracts. Your a Whole Lotta' Women, You're a Whole Lotta' Man. Woah! Hot Mess! God Damn! ... and when the night arrives, you're something else. I hope your having fun, when your not stacking shelves. Make-up slides off your face, when you're off you're face. Woah! Hot Mess! God Damn! Big Hands, Big Hands, Big Hands, Arrrgh Man! Big Hands, Big Hands, Big Hands! I hope that You're happy. I hope that You're well And all the haters, they can go to hell. Alright? Woah! Hot Mess! Woah! Hot Mess! Woah! Hot Mess!

about

Every cost was avoided to record this album in glorious MONO on only the cheapest and most inferior equipment available.

* contains approx. 3% new ideas.

"Third submission from this lot to the C and this time they have chosen to bribe me with sweets. It's worked. Also, potentially the first time we have reviewed one of their things in the actual year it was released. Oli Saunders and Alex Deller both had nice things to say about their scruffy, low fidelity garage punk in the years 2015 and 2017, and well, three years down the line Numbskull Action haven't exactly gone prog or polished things up so much that you can see your face in it. Everything is blown out and possibly reminiscent of a period where I got quite into garage punk, paying obsessional attention to stuff that people on the Terminal Boredom forum found worthy. Lot's of energy and spirit here, it fits the nihilistic mood whilst I'm a few beers in on week 7 (or so) of lock-down, a soundtrack to being just about ready to resume heavy drinking after managing to do a pretty stand up job of not over-indulging for a while. Let Numbskull Action soundtrack your relapse."

Collective-zine.co.uk

"Minimalist, lo-fi rock’n’roll punk with a snotty streak and a refreshingly healthy dose of self-awareness. This release really hammers home the point that it’s not fancy equipment or production acrobatics that make a punk record good. There are some real standout tracks on here, and no shortage of infectious rock’n’roll riffs, no-bullshit vocals and screaming guitar leads. Mutate With Me adds something new and weird and even a little exciting to the sounds of the early Rip Off Records catalog. Definitely worth checking out for punks who like to do a degenerated version of the twist or those willing to give it a try."

MRR #445 • JUNE 2020

"These are just a few ways that this band introduces this cassette: first, on their website they say “every cost was avoided to record this album in glorious MONO on only the cheapest and most inferior equipment available… contains approx… 3 percent new ideas.” And, on the delightful handwritten note to guide me through this review, an excited exclamation that, “This one is extra horrible!” Both of these things totally got me—I love when bands don’t take themselves too seriously. I love that this tape ends with a song called “Tape Runs Out” that just clunks when the tape stops. My guess is that these folks love to drink cheap beer and this band is a great reason to do that, which is far from the worst reason to put out a cool tape. So, bravo."
