THE MEATMEN.

When I was a young buck just entering high school, I witnessed these guys along with The Crucifucks.
That experience made my 14 year-old mind re-think what music was all about.
Add a skateboard & a few tokes of the dreaded "Pinconning Paralyzer"and things got even more fun, ya know?

This is pretty much all you need in your collection as far as The Meatmen are concerned, and you should have this already. If not, here's your chance to score a magnanimous collection of CLASSIC MIDWESTERN HARDCORE.

"GOD'S FAVORITE DOG".

Way-the-fuck-out-of-print comp. from Touch & Go Records featuring cuts from Butthole Surfers, Killdozer, Scratch Acid, Big Black, Happy Flowers and Rick Rubin's band, Hose.
The Happy Flowers jams on here are perfect for clearing the fools out of your house when you want to end the party!

Remember when Touch & Go wasn't "just another indie label" filled with pussy bands?
Reminisce, fuckers.

NEGATIVE APPROACH.

A band that certainly needs no introduction, here's probably the only other CD you need by them besides the also-excellent "Total Recall" collection.

These guys probably influenced more hardcore bands than any other - no doubt about it - and John Brannon can scrape a bong cleaner than anyone else I have seen in my life...

D/L Negative Approach - Ready To Fight: Demos, Live and Unreleased Tracks 1981 - 1983 right here.




Now playing: Ratos De Porao - Obrigando A Obedecer
