Buick Men is the debut studio album by the American rock band Hagfish.[1] It was released in 1993 on Dragon Street Records.[2] Eight of the album's tracks would be re-recorded for the follow-up Rocks Your Lame Ass.

Critical reception

[edit]

Trouser Press wrote that the band "sets broad locker-room humor against cuddly (if raucous) power pop riffing. Since they’re as willing to mock themselves (see 'New Punk Rock Song') as the outside things they lampoon, it’s hard to hold the dopiness of, say, 'Lesbian Girl' against Hagfish."[3]
