Template:Music ratings All Scratched Up! is the fourth album by Down by Law, released in 1996.[1][2] The band supported the album by touring with labelmates Millencolin.[3][4]

Vinyl versions of the album were released as a double album, with Side D consisting of vinyl-only bonus tracks.

Critical reception

The Chicago Tribune wrote that Down by Law "blends punk and pop with knowing ease but without a whole lot of flair."[5] The Bradenton Herald determined that "musically, 'Radio Ragga' (a melancholy reggae number) and 'Far And Away' (the catchy melody switches motifs to rolling drums and stretched guitar sounds a la The Who, then back again) are most interesting."[3] The Tampa Tribune thought that "the band dabbles in dime-store punk and tuneless wonk with limited success."[6]
