Comeback studio album by the American garage rock band ? and the Mysterians released on May 25, 1999 on Cavestomp Records.
Fans may lament that the owners of ? & the Mysterians’ original recordings are refusing to license a CD release of the band’s material, but the group knew how to capitalize on a bad situation. They reunited and released a series of albums of re-recordings of their oldies. Often, these were live records, but More Action is a studio recording that features the classics, along a handful of newer songs, plus a multimedia video. Cleverly, they titled this album More Action, which will certainly make the diehards think of the band’s second album Action, but this should not be confused with the original album. As far as re-recordings go, these aren’t bad at all, and while the double-disc set has its share of filler, it rocks surprisingly hard — hard enough to make it a worthwhile listen for ? and garage rock aficionados.
