Paganicons

Paganicons is the debut EP of punk band Saccharine Trust, released on December 10, 1981 through SST.

Inspired by Minutemen,[2] Saccharine Trust desired to make an album that experimented with different forms of rock.

[2] Guitarist Joe Baiza considered music "a conceptual art project".

[1] In Journals, Kurt Cobain of Nirvana ranked Paganicons as one of his top fifty records.

[4][5][6] Allmusic critic John Dougan was less enthusiastic, criticising vocalist Jack Brewer's performance as "especially irritating and pretentious", though further writing that "there are indications that there's an interesting band here, especially in the abrasive guitar playing of Joe Baiza.
