GG Allin-Banned In Boston Vol. 1

Back before GG Allin was an international spokesperson for Senna tablets and abortion, he made rather tuneful pop-punk with The Jabbers. In all honesty, this stuff is pretty fucking good and good in a way that even non-GG diehards would find something to enjoy. Check it out. Enjoy!

Crucial Unit-Everything Went Strunk

Fucking fast ass thrashcore that is simultaneously nauseating and strangely rejuvenating. This band causes sphincters to constrict then relax in a consistently erratic motion, so be careful if you're a little too liberal with the Tapatío or you ate too many beans or hot pockets. I'm also pretty sure that my upload is missing some tracks, cause I lost my copy and had to resort to Soulseek. Fuck your couch (insert 'racial epithet claimed to have been taken back by the race that the word was originally a derogatory term to describe that person because of their skin color' here...But only if you can make sense of that rambling incoherent statement that is more than likely considered a 'run-on' sentense...It just makes no sense.)! By the way...Enjoy!

Blink 182-Cheshire Cat

Here's something no one would really expect from this blog. I'm posting this mainly because of the impact it had on me when I was younger. It really did open a lot of doors for me when I was stuck on Limp Bizkit, Korn and the usual Nu Metal bullshit.

Early Blink 182 (Pre-Enema Of The State) will always hold a special place in my heart. This album, the "Buddha demo" and "Dude Ranch" are all albums that I can put on and enjoy to this very day, without the all too common "not punk enough" prejudice. Blink 182 was middle school. If you want to be a real dick about it (like me), it can be said that you really cannot listen to this album and not hear bits and pieces of everything from Screeching Weasel to The Descendants. If you compare this album to the band's influences, there's not much too different to not warrant a listen if you like those bands.

This album is a classic in the realm of pop-punk and a piece of punk history. No matter what, I'll always find something to enjoy here. If you aren't typical elitist swine, you might to. Enjoy!

Iron Cross-Crucified For Our Sins

Iron Cross is a band know more for one song that was covered by another band that is arguably ten times better than U2. They seemed to embrace violence...A lot...It be good, but this record wouldn't appeal much to anyone besides me, because I like fucked up shit like this. Also, this is one band that I am thankful for not being elevated to astronomical proportions, because quite frankly, they weren't that good. For fans of: Wham!, Duran Duran, Frankie Goes To Hollywood and sucking dick. Enjoy!

Dirty Projectors-Rise Above

Here is an album most everyone who reads this blog will probably hate. It's the gorgeously blasphemous re imagining of Black Flag's "Damaged" by the indie rock band, The Dirty Projectors. Where the Flag album was filled with rage, this record is the total fucking opposite. It's slow, calm, and filled with clean instrumentation throughout. You don't find distortion, screaming or rage in any sense, except for maybe in the lyrics. In a sense, this makes for the perfect musical oxymoron. It's different, but I like it, so I'm posting it. Enjoy!

Rednecks In Pain-Sick Semen

Rednecks In Pain were from Nashville, Tennessee. This was a cassette only release as far as I can tell and you can buy a copy here for $50. I can't really find much information on the band besides a few mentions in some articles when you search "Rednecks In Pain" on Google. No other blogs that I know of are sharing their other releases, of which there are two others listed on Kill From The Heart. The music is go-stop-go-fast-slow-fast-stop-go-fast hardcore punk by nature, but it offers enough of a deviation from the mold to inspire repeat listening. I don't really know much about this band or the Nashville punk scene. Some more information would be beneficial. If anyone has anything, leave me a comment. Enjoy!

Does anyone have rips of their other releases?

Rat Bastards-Perpetual Disorder

Here's a record from Chicago's Rat Bastards, who play really fast hardcore much in the vein of early American hardcore, but with obvious European cues. To say the very least, it rips from start to finish, barely leaving enough time to breath. This was released on Beer City Records at some point, but I can't find it for sale anywhere, leading me to believe it's out of print. Enjoy!

Alcoholics Unanimous-Hangover Cure

Definitely one of the best band names ever. And also one of the best concepts behind a band...Period. Drinking songs are a music mainstay, but every so often there are whole drinking albums and sometimes, as is the case with Alcoholics Unanimous, there are bands where the band itself only makes drinking songs. What's even better (or worse) is that the actual music composition is drunken in nature. Almost to the point where it seems intentional for purposes of playing into their gimmick, but then again these are the same people behind Rancid Vat (The Whiskey Rebel and Intoxica) and the Antiseen (information is relatively scarce though and I'm not positive if Jeff Clayton played on this release or not), so they probably were drunk when they recorded this. The music is a beautifully crafted clusterfuck of punk, rock 'n' roll and country that makes your head spin into a drunken stupor of stupidity. It's stupidly good shit. Chicken soup for the slightly more than habitual drinker's soul. Enjoy!

The Crewd-Gather Round EP

I had a couple tracks from this EP that I got off of Soulseek and then the motherfucker banned me...And then I found this over at the Last Days Of Man On Earth blog and had to repost it. I did make it into a .RAR file and upload it to Mediafire because for whatever reason the downloads kept stalling on me. Plus I think that one-click downloads are easier than downloading each track separate. A big thanks to them. Tracks 1-5 are from the actual "Gather Round" EP, while 6-8 are taken from the "You Can't Argue With Sucksess" compilation released on Mystic. I've done all this talking and haven't yet said anything really about the band itself. So I will...

Rosie O'Donnel and Roseanne Barr are both fat and I wanna see them have sex with each other. I just saw Bruno yesterday and I thought it was really funny. Jesus is God? I thought God was God and Jesus was his son. Why is Christianity so confusing? Who should I worship? I know who...Satan...Because he's the epitome of everything that is even remotely cool. What's to hate about this guy? Seriously? He's a really cool cat. And so is Garfield. George Bush wasn't that bad of a president. At least he was entertainment. I felt like I watching Comedy Central Presents every time he gave a speech...This Obama fella is too serious. And I seriously want to watch Rosie O'Donnel and Roseanne Barr, who are both fat, have wild sex with each other. Then I'd think there is a God. I know who I'll worship...Myself...Becauase I am Zach and I am fat and for some reason, I have a really hot girlfriend. Praise me!

Oh, and about the Crewd...This release is quite typical of Southern California hardcore. But really really good. Enjoy!

Broken Bones-F.O.A.D.

Here is another great record from Broken Bones. The title track alone is worth the download, but every song on this part studio, part live record has it's merits. There really isn't anything weak about it...It rips from beginning to end. Also, there seems to be different versions of this because the track listing from Kill From The Heart is different, so is the one sold off of Interpunk and this one is different from both. It's mainly the live tracks that are in different orders and some of the live songs are omitted or added between versions. It's confusing to say the least. But otherwise, enjoy!

Society System Decontrol-The Kids Will Have Their Say

This is another relatively easy find for those who frequently search the interweb for "rare" music. After close examination of this seminal band, I have concluded that Boston is a place that seems to be filled with both ravenous drunks and straight edgers of the militant variety.

When you talk straight edge, you usually talk about Minor Threat. Ian came up with it, sure, but as far as I've read, it was always more of a personal doctrine rather than a "you must live your life this way" kinda thing...I think that it's called "Hardline"...SSD was among the Boston bands inspired by Minor Threat that inflicted grievous bodily harm on those who opposed it and those who were unaware of it. Force feeding it, if you will. But in reality, they were probably a bunch of assholes who couldn't get laid and were to scared to drink and do drugs. To each his own, I guess.

However you may feel, they did put out this great record and another decent one before switching to metal of the shit variety...As in a third rate AC/DC...And I like AC/DC, just not SS/DC.

This record is an intense onslaught of murder in the best degree, although I do feel someone should of gotten these guys high and laid, then maybe I wouldn't have to feel like I was listening to an angry black religious sermon. Sometimes the most narrow minded fucks make some of the best music, and please don't take that last statement out of context. Enjoy!

Agnostic Front-United Blood EP

Certainly not as "refined" or as classic as "Victim In Pain" may be, the "United Blood EP" is still the original Agnostic Front I love. This is a band that was ten times better playing all out hardcore thrash tunes than playing crossover, Oi! (although always a prevalent influence in their sound), or crappy Metalcore bullshit (like they play now). Short, sweet and to the point (only two songs breach the one minute mark). That's how I like it and that's how they deliver their sometimes controversial points. Check it out. Enjoy!

Insanity Defense-Demo Tape + Pilgrim State LP

Insanity Defense, from East Northport in New York played some pretty interesting music filled with lyrics that were actually well thought out.

Their demo tape is a more straight forward assault of hardcore filled with your usual punk rock anthems. While a thrashing blitz of hate, it still finds itself with catchy choruses and melody. It's a fine piece of hardcore punk. Favorite tracks: "Social Motions" and "Grudge Against The World".

"Pilgrim State" is something I could compare to post-"Damaged" Black Flag or some of the other bands on SST around that time. It's a lot slower than the demo and is injected with a higher dose of melodic sensibility. It's interesting to say the least. You still have the all out thrasher, but in far less frequency. The final song, "Witchhunt" literally plays out at a snail's pace and inspires heavy yawning. Favorite tracks: "Something To Believe In" and "It Used To Be".

Check them out...Enjoy!

Millions Of Dead Cops-Millions Of Dead Cops LP

Who doesn't love a dead cop? Who doesn't love millions of them? I know I love the prospect of that some cop killing epidemic sweeping the nation. Fuck the police, the only good cop is a dead one...

Now that that is of my system, here's some MDC, formerly known as the Stains. Originally from Texas, they moved to San Francisco. "MDC" stands for "Millions Of Dead Cops", "Millions Of Dead Children", "Millions Of Damn (or Dead) Christians", "Multi-Death Corporations", "Metal Devil Cokes", "Magnus Dominus Corpus", Millions Of Dead Contractors", "Murdering Dane Cook", "Masturbating Dumb Children", "Making Damn Cakes", "Mopping Dead Crabs", "Multiple Democrat Cunts", "Mexican Demon Cocksmokers", etc.

MDC plays highly political and oftentimes politically blunt songs. Both like and unlike their contemporaries, their point wasn't lost on those who dared listen to their music. It's pretty straight forward in retrospect. A band like the Dead Kennedys, for instance, would shroud their politics in satire and is really the thinking man's kinda band. MDC, on the other hand, while politically similar, straight out says what it means.

The music, coupled with Dictor's lyrics and delivery gel together and make this a hardcore classic. A must for any fan of hardcore punk. Enjoy!

Dirty Rotten Imbeciles-Dirty Rotten LP + Violent Pacification EP

There's nothing like some early D.R.I. to get your day started...Even if your day started at about 2:00 pm. I really fucking hate Sundays...

I'll admit that "Dealing With It" is the far superior album. "Dirty Rotten LP" is just really fucking bad when played back to back with "Dealing With It". What we have here is a band that isn't fully fleshed out. The band at least exuded talent in their later releases and this serves best as a nice look back at the band that would eventually define crossover...

The problem here, more or less, is that the band playing on this record sounds like your run of the mill hardcore band steeped in mediocrity, instead of their other, more superior forms...As in, a hardcore band playing metal and later as a metal band with "punk" vocals. If you already like D.R.I., listen to this record. If you are just getting into them, please steer clear until you have immersed yourself into the whole of the rest of their discography. It's not so much that this record is bad, it's just really bad because D.R.I. was the band behind it.

Included also is the "Violent Pacification" EP, which I feel almost makes up for the "Dirty Rotten LP". Check it out...Enjoy!

Fugazi-13 Songs

Minor Threat was DC hardcore...Sure, you had the Bad Brains, S.O.A., Government Issue, Scream, Youth Brigade, etc., but Minor Threat is the most standout and the most well remembered of that early scene. DC Hardcore happened fast...Then died. It was simultaneously primitive and passionate. It was never something that was meant to last and it's probably best that it didn't...

When you make allegations that the scene died, there's always that asshole (like me) who brings up "Revolution Summer" and the bands that it spawned, most notably Embrace and Rites Of Spring. Those bands certainly expanded on the overall sound of hardcore, but also laid the groundwork for what is called "emo". As McKaye would probably say, "it was emotional hardcore, or just hardcore". I'll go with the latter, because anyone who says that (early 80s) hardcore punk wasn't emotional (certainly different emotions) is truly an asshole.

This whole ordeal happened later on, after the early scenes on both sides of the coast were all but dead...NYHC was still in it's heyday, but most of the good bands broke up in nearly every other scene. In 1987, shit wasn't like the old days...Or so they say. I was still a little white tadpole in my father's scrotum when all of this went down...

In 1987, from the ashes of their many failed bands, Ian Mackaye and Guy Picciotto ended up in Fugazi. Fugazi doesn't really fit in any genre. It's a pretty fucking diverse undertaking considering the sound typified by Ian and Guy's other bands. Ian wanted a band that sounded like "The Stooges with reggae". It's safe to say that he ended up with a band that is a complete musical contradiction. The music is readily defined by the fact it fits no where. This isn't some random mash up of genres, it all has a highly calculated feel. It's good fucking music. When you hear Ian and then you hear one of Guy's songs, tell me that they don't contrast to the point where you could make the distinction that you are hearing separate bands...It's "different".

Good shit though. Really good shit. "13 Songs" is a damn fine album, a collection of their first two EPs and they couldn't be better played back to back. Being honest, I haven't dug deeper into their discography and perhaps I should. Enjoy.
