Overall, while not particularly innovative, it's precisely for that reason that it's appealing. As ever, Jack 'Choke' Kelly's throaty, slightly gurgling vocals define the image of the four ice hockey fans." Stewart Mason of AllMusic added "16 Valve Hate is a fully aggro blast of old-school hardcore, so defiantly true to the style's roots that it sounds timeless instead of retro, complete with Jack Kelly's familiar hoarse but surprisingly expressive vocals."16 Valve Hate - Slapshot Album AllMusic https://www.allmusic.com/album/16-valve-hate-mw0000647877 2026-05-04 en Track listing 37:27 Jack Kelly, Chris Lauria and Blair Borden Watch Me Bleed 2:17 How Much Can I Take 2:27 Secrets 2:04 Do What You Want 1:40 16 Valves Hate 3:51 Teach Me to Kill 3:30 Johnny Was 2:57 The Truth Hurts 2:09 Desensitized 2:25 108 2:14 I Want You Dead 1:43 Bigmouth Strikes Again (The Smiths cover) 3:04 L.O.S.E.R 2:35 If You Had 2:08 I Knew I'd Lose 2:37 Personnel Slapshot Jack "Choke" Kelly – lead vocals Mike Bowser – guitar Chris Lauria – bass Mark Mckay – drums Technical personnel Rich Spillberg – engineer, photography James Siegel – recording Jason Richardson – artwork Karl Trout – graphic design References Category:1996 albums Category:Slapshot (band) albums
