“The Once Over Twice”, X-Wild Gift—NPA

This way: The Once Over Twice

Near Perfect Album

It's a hard choice between the first and second LPs by X. Both are fantastic. This one is the one without Soul Kitchen so it edges out the other by a hair. Wild Gift is the second studio album by American rock band X, released on May 4, 1981 by Slash Records. It was very well received critically, and was voted the year's second best album in The Village Voice's Pazz & Jop poll. Wild Gift was later ranked at number 334 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.

Wild Gift showcases the band's unique punk rock style, which infuses roots rock, country, blues, R&B, and rockabilly.
