    AN UN-SUNG CLASSIC GETS ITS DUE
  

*by R***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2010*

Even now, 25 years after first hearing this album, I feel The Slits are an acquired taste. I bought this album as a 15 year-old who'd just gotten into punk, expecting another exhilarating blast of British punk along the lines of The Damned or The Adverts. What I heard was so alien to me that I put the album away for ten years. It wasn't until I was in my 20s that I gave Cut another spin and finally understood what I was hearing: three girls (and drummer Budgie, later of Siouxsie and the Banshees fame) exploring their musical passions with no restrictions, crafting something that was impossible to categorize or pigeon hole. It was, I realized, exhilarating in its own special way. How much more punk can you get than a band you can't easily explain to your friends?The Slits began life as the classic DIY punk band - they literally could not play, and made a bunch of loud, primitive, and wonderful noise. Watch them in Don Letts' The Punk Rock Movie with original drummer Palmolive; four girls who can't play and don't give a damn, doing their thing on tour with The Clash. Then something incredible happened: instead of plateauing as a three-chord punk band (Anti-Pasti, The Exploited, et al), cranking out a new album every 10 months, the girls discovered dub and reggae, and kept playing and playing, getting better and better, re-configuring their songs and their sound, and finally released their debut, Cut, a couple of years after they formed.If you're open-minded and are willing to wade into some new sounds (or at least some sounds you don't expect), I can't recommend Cut more highly. Instead of a bunch of technically-accomplished snobs like The Police, you have three uninhibited young women writing and recording whatever they were feeling, without worrying about conforming to anyone else's standards or ideas of what a punk or reggae band should look or sound like. It's a refreshing blast of positive female energy, and 30 years later, it still sounds new.This 2-disc Deluxe Edition contains what every Slits fan needs - the original album, the John Peel sessions (which captured the band early on, when they were still more punk than reggae), two versions of their outstanding cover of "I Heard it Through the Grapevine," four 8-track demos, and the entire album all over again, in its original rough mix. Lest you think all the extras here are extraneous repetition, listen to the original album version of "Typical Girls" on disc one, then listen to the rough mix on disc two. I've been listening to the album version of this song for years, and I'm telling you, the rough mix is a revelation. For the first time, Viv Albertine's guitar is way louder than the piano during the chorus, imbuing the song with a far earthier and organic sound, and the Slits-esque harmonies are stripped from the chorus, leaving just singer Ari Up singing the simple, yet incredibly catchy melody. Her voice is strong and solid, just what was needed on this song. It's so much cooler than the version that wound up on the album, you wonder whose decision it was go with the much busier version.Just one of many surprises on this long overdue Deluxe Edition of one of the great overlooked post-punk classics.

    Pioneering all-girl punk band whose music packs a punch
  

*by G***Y on Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2019*

Cut (1979) is a rockin, stylish, rebellious album that's not your typical punk. The Slits taught me that punk isn't really about sound as much as attitude--and these girls were the real deal.Listening to NPR one day, I caught a segment of an interview with Viv Albertine, which sparked curiosity about The Slits. I am SO glad that I was listening to NPR at that moment. I absolutely love Cut and repeatedly play some songs for hours.My favorites, in order, are FM, Ping Pong Affair, and Typical Girls--I play those over and over and over. I also enjoy Instant Hit, So Tough, and Shoplifting a lot. The rest are good too, but I crave the others more.Damn, I wish I'd known about the deluxe edition of Cut. I'll be investing in that in the future.

    Different...
  

*by R***D on Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2014*

In fact, it's one of the more "different" things I've ever heard...I bought this disc on a whim after authoring the Find a Grave bio for Ari Up, lead vocalist of The Slits, a popular punk-rock ensemble back in the day, though this certainly is not my 'style'. "Cut" was their 1979 debut record and probably their biggest hit. The music fit right in with the punk genre and the cover continues to make the top 10 list of controversial album art...according to legend, it was to include four girls but one of the members quit rather than pose naked, even covered in mud....There's no point discussing the individual tracks, except for a quirky version of "Heard It Thru the Grapevine" which is interesting....OK. I bought it and I called it "different", but I kind of liked it. The presentation and sound quality are fine and it provides a brief trip back in time that you might just enjoy....
