MAXIMUMROCKNROLL: Thank You, Mother Dear Album Review

Although now only an online concern, MAXIMUMROCKNROLL has a long and storied history covering punk and hardcore going back to the 1970s, including a review of Human Sufferage in the January 1985 Issue 21. Although an image of the review isn't online, I was able to track down a transcription via the JimmyButtons Blog:
HUMAN SUFFERAGE - "Thank You, Mother Dear" 12"
The production on these acidic thrash compositions is
extremely basic, as on their debut LP, but HUMAN SUFFERAGE
earn high marks for improved songwriting and a sense of
passion that's almost tangiable . "Take It for Granted" is a
snappy hardcore number worth special mention, but the lyrics
on all these songs show that this band is extremely articulate,
too . A must-get . (SS)
