This first release by the California-based Dickies contains songs best described as percolating, hyperactive cartoon hardcore, colored with a noticeable bit of Ramones influence. All the songs on this album are frantically fast and very short; over half the selections here have durations under two minutes, and only the instrumental number "Rondo" is longer than three minutes. Most of the tunes here have agreeably goofball lyrics that are often only semi-intelligible.

The Dickies mated their brash, punky attack with power pop melodicism, paving the way for generations of pop-punk bands to come. Their taste in covers must have been particularly provocative to the era's punk purists, as The Dickies' debut album finds them tackling tunes by Black Sabbath (the surprisingly punk-friendly "Paranoid"), The Monkees ("She"), and even '60s folk-rock one-hit wonder Barry McGuire ("Eve of Destruction")

The Incredible Shrinking Dickies. The Incredible Shrinking Dickies was the 1978 first album by the California punk band The Dickies. The album included the group's notable cover of Black Sabbath's "Paranoid", which reached No. 45 in the UK charts in July 1979. It was pressed on four different colors of vinyl (blue, yellow, orange, black) and was produced by John Hewlett, who in the late 1960s was a member of the UK garagepunk quartet John's Children.

The Dickies were amongst the first punk rock bands to emerge from Los Angeles, and the first California punk band to be signed to a major record label and appear on network television. The Dickies' style was campy and humorous with obvious influences from the Ramones.
