	Double Nickels on the Dime - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Double Nickels on the Dime is an album recorded by The Minutemen on the SST label in 1984.
		The title of the album is a reaction to the Sammy Hagar song "I Can't Drive 55"; the title essentially states that the Minutemen intended to take chances with their music rather than behind the wheel, as opposed to Hagar, who the Minutemen thought did the exact opposite.
		"The dime" is a nickname for the Santa Monica Freeway, a portion of Interstate 10.

	Minutemen - The Punch Line Review - sputnikmusic (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Formed in 1978 under the name The Reactionaries with four members, the band eventually split by the end of the seventies and guitarist D Boon and friend/bassist Mike Watt formed this new band titled the Minutemen.
		The band name sort of has a double meaning, first being the military term of the minutemen and the secondly being that they mostly wrote songs that were just under a minute long (with their later material, they would expand their time more).
		The album does not have as much diversity as Double Nickels on the Dime, but still shows early signs of genre exploration.

	Robert Christgau: CG: minutemen
		As someone who's never had much patience with the mystique of the ill-recorded moment, music overheard just before it slips into the historical void its creators figure it for, I'll make a partial exception for the Minutemen, because I miss them so much.
		I know most of the songs on this mostly live double in versions I prefer, but better than any studio distillation it underlines the crucial point: they lived.
		And given the modesty so intrinsic to their world-historical public ambitions, its muffled, take-a-flier intimacy speaks.

	Jack Feeny reviews: The Minutemen
		Like I said, now and again they hit upon something genuinely impressive - a rollicking groove or high-tempo off-beat rock'n'roll - but more or often than not they, and more importantly the listener, just gets lost amongst the muddled musical diversions and puerile humour.
		Of course, even with the short song times (rarely do they go on beyond two minutes) 43 tracks (FORTY THREE!!) means the CD is filled to capacity; although it was of course originally a double vinyl set.
		I find it amazing that I should be the only person who thinks this album is about three times too long.
