Husker Du - Zen Arcade (1984)Everybody is supposed to regard Hüsker Dü as one of, if not the greatest exponents of American hardcore punk. As such, we are all supposed to bow down to them and admire their "influence" on those who came after, right? They were the ones who, along with the Violent Femmes , encapsulated the very essence of what it means to be a teenager in the eighties. Indeed, if you try to bring some sort of order to the tracks, it appears you are listening to the somewhat sorry tale of a disaffected, disillusioned, alienated youth who drifts away from his familiar ...Music Emissions3 February 2012

Meat Puppets - "Monsters" CD Review (MVD Aud ..DOWNLOAD : Meat Puppets - Live at Georgia Theater, Athens. GA 11-08-89 The Meat Puppets kicked off the tour for Monsters tour in December of 1989 at The Coach House in San Juan Capistrano and, in a review of the show, the L.A. Times said : “ As individual and uncompromising as the band's approach is, it is still difficult to fathom why the Meat Puppets haven't found the larger success of the Replacements, Bob Mould and other contemporaries. There is a distinctive, imaginative song craft at work in the Puppets' recent material which, coupled with the trio's blistering musicality ...BrooklynRocks: NYC Music Blog25 January 2012

Meat Puppets - "Up On the Sun" CD Review (MV ..DOWNLOAD : Meat Puppets - Live @ McCabe's Guitar Show, Santa Monica, CA 5-3-85 ( Up on the Sun tour) In 1985, the Meat Puppets released their third full-length, Up On the Sun , and this disc was the turning point for the band’s sound. There is no sign of the band’s hardcore roots on any of the disc’s twelve tracks as the music continues on the acid-drenched, country-punk path that the band started down on Meat Puppets II . The music on this disc has held up well over the years and there seems to be an ongoing debate among fans ...BrooklynRocks: NYC Music Blog21 January 2012

All I Care About Is Now - Top Ten 2011"The beginning is over. The end hasn't come yet. All I care about is now." - Nucky Thompson - Wise words from Mr. Thompson, erstwhile bootlegger and burgeoning mafia man incarnate of Boardwalk Empire. But to fully concern ourselves with the now we also have to look back, take a little pilfer through the banks of what has come before in order to concern ourselves with the pressing matters of today. 2011 was another great year for music, the old vanguard was in full force with stellar records coming from the amazing PJ Harvey, a reformed The Feelies, Mogwai, Radiohead, Tom ...beautiful pigeon18 January 2012

Music: Gateways To Geekery: SST RecordsGeek obsession: SST Records Why it’s daunting: Greg Ginn , founder of SST Records as well as its flagship band, Black Flag, recently announced the release of his own electronica-influenced music. It might have been the final straw for most SST fans—if most SST fans hadn’t given up on the label long ago. By the time Ginn started squandering SST’s good name in the late ’80s, the label had already done more than any other single entity to promote and propagate underground American rock in the post-punk era. In fact, SST’s legacy has become so exalted ...The A.V. Club13 January 2012

Meat Puppets - "Huevos" CD Review (MVD Audio ..DOWNLOAD : Meat Puppets - Live @ Variety Arts Center, Los Angeles, CA 1-22-88 Always a prolific band, The Meat Puppets followed the April 1987 release of the very accessible Mirage with Huevos , which came out just six months later. This time out, the band are going for a bluesy, riff-rock power trio sound akin to the James Gang or ZZ Top. In the liner notes for the reissue, Derrick Bostrom said: “ At this stage of our career, we weren’t punk enough for our old fans and we were too punk for our new ones...we decided we’d hit a ceiling ...BrooklynRocks: NYC Music Blog20 December 2011

Meat Puppets- "On My Way" CD Review (MVD Aud ..DOWNLOAD : Meat Puppets - Live @ KCRW Studios, 1-16-86 (contains live versions of many of the songs from On My Way ) The Meat Puppets’ Up On the Sun (1985) was a staple of my college radio days and there was a rumor circulating at the time that the popularity of the disc was going to lead to the Pups signing to a major label. At this point in the band’s career, Curt’s songwriting had significantly matured, leaving no trace of the speedballing freaked-out punk from the band’s first disc. Drummer Derrick Bostrom noted that, after the lengthy Up On ...BrooklynRocks: NYC Music Blog17 December 2011

Down the Punx? Why'd A Bunch of Rad Videos G ..L.A. Weekly : On Wednesday morning, several punk bands awoke to find their videos had been removed from YouTube. They were understandably irritated; that’s almost worse than running out of beer. In their places were notes that they’d been yanked due to Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) complaints lodged by SST Records—the legendary abel founded by Black Flag’s Greg Ginn, formerly based in Los Angeles but now in Austin. The allegation? That these videos were using unauthorized SST music. But that was not so… Read and comment. From thedailyswarm.com.The Daily Swarm17 December 2011
