They’re called a punk rock band but I’m not too sure if everyone else out there considers singing over a Bruce Springsteen record (you can still hear the boss (burn in hell Clarence Clemons with your shitty saxophone)) to be punk rock. All those “classic” 80s artists get ridiculed, and I’m all for it. It’s definitely an artifact of the times. And those times were pretty shitty too (in case you’re too young to remember). This won't make much sense to you if you were born after 1982. But then, you won't make much sense to me if you were born after that date. Fuck you Ronald Reagan.

Ah, the 80's! I was growing up scared shitless about nuclear annihilation at the tail end of the Cold War - on Air Force bases home to bomber wings, nonetheless.
ReplyDeleteGood ole Ronnie Raygun! Flashing his reassuring, 1950's Hollywood smiles to the public as his administration went on to be charged with more criminal activities then any administration in generations... it was just his luck that the Soviet Union suddenly collapsed, as the laundry list of crimes committed on his watch by his people were piling up. Horrible president. What a hapless, out of touch pawn.
Dolomite-Tarantula,do you have it?
ReplyDeleteSorry, I don't. I only have "Of the Angels." But I'll keep an eye out for it.
ReplyDeleteI remember buying this one from Manny Lunch at Rocks in Your Head on Prince Street way way back in the day!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I bought this too from Phantom Records in Sydney. Loved it at the time, still do.... Too bad I flogged my record collection years ago.
ReplyDeletehope you've been doing well buddy, glad you got that guitaro album!! the more you talk about psych and shoegaze with me the more i post....pretty sure you and i are at the point with our collections where unless someone focuses our idealism we sort of just grab the first gem that reinforces our aesthetic.
