What bores you about them AHD? I think they're one of the most repulsive hard drug driven bands out there. They were all big time junkies around the time of that album. A million death metal bands can grunt about death and pain, but EHG really mean it. And what have you got against egg gargling vocals? Mike's screams just ooze with filth, disease and addiction. But hey, to each their own.
I love great Rock n' Roll.  I like good Rock n' Roll.  I don't think disease or pain or addiction are substitutes for legitimacy in Rock.

Between 1981 and 1985-some really hard core punk was coming out of the undergound--out in Washington DC,it was spearheadedd by one of the GODS of the hardcore scene-was the BAD BRAINS!!!
Bad Brains - Big Take Over (Live 1982)
Supernatural?...perhaps. Baloney?...Perhaps not!" Bela Lugosi-the BLACK CAT (1934)
Interviewer-"Does Dracula ever end for you?
Lugosi-"No. Dracula-never ends."

I heard this on the radio yesterday, thought it belonged here
14 The Vandals - So Long, Farewell

Also, this is one of my favorite punk songs
Vandals - Euro Barge
yeah no.

Henry Rollins-who was from DC-and was hanging out with Minor Threat-who in turn were mentored by the Bad Brains personally-was recruited by west coast band Black Flag-and punk history was made!

Black Flag - Rise Above

I remember buying these f**king records and freaking out-it was the most outrageous s**t I had ever heard--!
I bought this record in 1984-sweet satan! I loved it!

02 Dead Cops - America's So Straight by MDC

Supernatural?...perhaps. Baloney?...Perhaps not!" Bela Lugosi-the BLACK CAT (1934)
Interviewer-"Does Dracula ever end for you?
Lugosi-"No. Dracula-never ends."

I agree-the VANDALS are fantastic-I stated listening to punk in 1983-I was lucky enuff to hear some great s**t when it was fresh-and I just watched a film the other day called AMERICAN HARDCORE-which reminded me how great these insane kids were-and diverse! You had Bad Brains,Black Flag,Minor Threat,SS Decontrol,COC,DRI,and the mighty MDC-just to name a few!
and of course-the architects of West Coast Hardcore-the CIRCLE JERKS!

circle jerks-backed up against a wall

and for you folks who wanna actually here what there saying and playing-

I agree with you to a point AHD. It's not the fact that I think they are legitemate because of their substance abuse. I just think they're an honest band singing about what they know. What would have happened to a band like The Stooges if they didn't use drugs?  :smile:

I guess that's a fair point.  My all time favorite record of any type is FUN HOUSE on which we hear IGGY snorting a lot (probably pink cocaine)...  :teddyr:

Don't get too close, it's dark inside.
It's where my demons hide, it's where my demons hide.
