The long out-of-print debut album! Splitsville USA is a fun frolic through pop culture, with some often-silly lyrics backed up by great music. Stewart Mason of The All Music Guide states, "In many ways, from the crunchy glam rock blare of the guitars to the goofy lyrics of songs like the punk-snotty "Sit & Spin" and the self-explanatory "Come Back to the 5 and Dime, Larry Storch, Larry Storch," Splitsville USA is like Redd Kross' early records with the cultural references updated to the early '80s (songs called "Atari 2600" and "Shrinky Dink" will raise a nostalgic smile for anyone who remembers the days of The Facts of Life and The A-Team) and a slightly less sarcastic worldview." And according to John M. Borack of Trouser Press, Splitsville "...goes for pop-punk laughs on its maiden voyage. With song titles like "Come Back to the 5 and Dime, Larry Storch, Larry Storch," "I Was a Teenage Frankenstein" and "Gremlin With Mags," it's pretty evident how seriously this is all meant. Still, Splitsville U.S.A. is often hooky enough — in a Buzzcocks/Redd Kross fashion —to hang in there."
