    Second Coming is the fourth studio album by punk band The Dickies.[4] The album contained covers of "Hair" and Gene Pitney's "Town Without Pity."

    In 2007, the album was re-released by Captain Oi!, with the Killer Klowns From Outer Space EP as bonus tracks.

    Critical reception[edit]

    Trouser Press wrote that "while hardly the promised resurrection, Second Coming is still a perfectly (dis)respectable showing from one of our national treasures."[5] Alternative Rock wrote that the band was "bitingly, ferociously back to (near) best."[6]
