Pillsbury Hardcore, "Wanna Check Out My Record Collection?"


Limber archivist jabberwocky, way pre-MITB: "Got all the Dischord, almost all the Touch and Go, almost all the Dangerhouse / I got the Bags single / Yes L.A. too / My record collection, my record collection / It's rad! It's rad! It's rad! It's rad!"

Sissy Spacek, "Song 9"


The preamble and constitution of a "new genre" (Tano, 1999). Wiese, at his best, and Ronnau push the misanthropic agenda. Masochists only.

BRUNCH: Siege


Speed trials, the Weymouth way. With Deep Wound, a heroic foil to the might-makes-right crew monkeys crowding the Common by '84. Consummate brutality, smarter and heavier, telegraphing a grave new world.

"Life of Hate"

The Cheifs, "Eddie's Revenge"


Tattered harmonies run wild in the streets. Dyslexic Southland stomp indigenous to the SST micropolis: a steady diet of Weinerschnitzel, a surfboard, a conscience. "Guns don't kill people. Songs do."
