New Rise Against single, album out in June. This has grown on me a lot this week. https://open.spotify.com/track/74zUPQTB6HMnfS1cagJnd8?si=N3M5wEMeSGKXziOQi8_yGA

We are the nowhere generation
We are the kids that no one wants
We are a credible threat
To the rules you set
A cause to be alarmed
We are not the names we�ve been given
We speak a language you don�t know

If the chorus is too poppy for you, skip to 1:30 or so for the �you sold us the gently caress out� part

I thought his lowest was going on Daily Show and trying to convince Rob Corddry that punks could be conservative/republican and still be cool

Yeah, it�s wild how that�s even a venue at all. I�m in the area and wanted to bowl there pre-pandemic but they were always full. Really need to prioritize getting over there once I get the good needle.

Glad you all l like it! They sent me some patches when Beyond Human blew a speaker out in my old car and just kinda got a special place in my heart for it.

Also if you listen to LPOTL and remember Henry giggling about a band called Intercourse sending him a shirt with an alien on it- that's the band called Intercourse.

Chicago has such an amazing music scene, I really miss it. Back in the day I lived a block away from the HotHouse's Milwaukee location and the poo poo they brought through this narrow loving room with no ventilation, it really lived up to its name.

Today's WaPo featured a review of Bad Brains' first two albums and found concert footage from CBGBs. I really like them but hearing they got homophobic with Bob Mould when they stayed with the Huskers in Minneapolis is pretty disappointing

guessing you haven't heard the Bad Brains/Big Boys story, then

Tim Kerr posted:

ON BAD BRAINS:
I have had to tell the Bad Brains/Big Boys story at least once every 5 or 6 months for the last 30 years. So much information, misinformation, peoples' "truths," and hearsay have been written, that even when facts are given, is usually accompanied by some sort of disclaimer. As Chris Gates said recently, "It's their Altamont." The Bad Brains have tried to downplay this whole Austin incident and/or put the blame for it onto us or just Biscuit. It has always been looked at by them (and others) as a gay issue, when in fact for us, that was only a small part of a bigger picture. In a scene where everything was based on community, they took money from Biscuit and defaced property of the very people who had opened their home to them (Beth and I). In all the years that people have stayed here, we have NEVER had a problem except when the Bad Brains stayed.

The facts...

The Bad Brains came to Austin to play a show we had set up. They stayed at our house (Beth's and mine). Most of the door money that night had gone to the Bad Brains because as always, most of the door back then would go to help out the touring band. When the show was over, HR had complimented Biscuit on the show and he then asked Biscuit if he was gay. Biscuit said yes. The HR/Bad Brains freak out began and here is where the accounts of the story get skewed by others who were not even there. Biscuit DID NOT make a "pass" at HR -- period. Beth and I were both there and this did NOT happen.

In all the years we all knew Biscuit, even though he was certainly not a saint, the man never acted inappropriately. His sexuality was never at issue. Biscuit had acquired for them, in good faith and below cost, something they needed and he was told they would pay him the next day. Needless to say, after the big freakout at the show, when we all got back home, things were now uncomfortable and stressful for Beth and I. Even though we did not agree with their views we wanted to stay respectful to their beliefs for the rest of their stay with us. It most likely would have been left at that, but the next morning, while I was at work and Beth had stayed home from work, MDC came over and started it all back up again. Beth called me at work and was really upset. By the time I got home there was a yelling match going on in our little front yard. The subjects ranged from women needing to be at home, barefoot, cooking, and having babies to holy religious sermons. EVERYONE but Earl was involved not just HR . Beth was in the kitchen in tears and I had to go out and put my (shaky) foot down to stop the whole ordeal. MDC left but it still took the Bad Brains several hours to leave. We still were courteous to them, but Beth and I were both emotionally drained and the atmosphere was very uncomfortable by this point. We gave HR a foam pad for his bedroll and tried as best we could to help them speed up the process of going.

When they were headed out the door HR handed Beth a thick sealed envelope addressed to Biscuit, so we did not open it. I can believe the possibility that money was put into an envelope by one of the band members as the documentary states, but in the emotionally charged atmosphere of that afternoon, and after all we all had been through the night before, I have a very hard time believing that there was ever a friendly message on the envelope as depicted in the documentary's animation. We certainly did not receive anything saying "thank you, Bad Brains."

When they finally left, we discovered that they had defaced an historic poster in our bathroom that had actually gotten Raul's (an original Austin punk club) shut down. They could have easily told me it offended them and I would have covered or removed it. I also saw that the big 3d oversized post card of the pope that I was using in a painting I was working on was now gone. That escalated the whole affair for Beth and I as we had NEVER had any band take or deface something of ours. The next day when we gave Biscuit the sealed envelope that was supposed to contain the money he was owed, there was no money. There was a multi-paged letter/sermon/rant that ended with "�may you burn in hell, the Bad Brains." When word got out, sides were taken, as all the zines reported on the incidents and then printed letters from readers. They stressed the gay issue rather than the whole disrespectful way we all had been treated. The Big Boys started getting mail from all over, pro and con on the gay issue even though we had never made a band issue of Biscuit being gay because, IT WAS NOT AN ISSUE. A year or so later we were finally sent the money owed by one of their crew.

As hard as they try to downplay it, it really was a huge deal at that time in the DIY community. Other bands even wrote songs about it. Chris is right, it was their Altamont and became a big part of their history and some say downfall. Like Ken Burns documentaries, the Bad Brains one will become a truth and the Austin incident will become a small footnote.

Just goes to show you that history is indeed his story. I'm just adding a footnote of my own for the record.

I may sound like an old man saying this but I listened to it yesterday and found the noisiness to be a barrier to my enjoyment of it

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy some noise rock and I love HEALTH, for example. It just felt like, in this case, I would have enjoyed it a lot more had it not been so noisy. I could hear some songs I probably would've liked underneath the noise.

Maybe it was just some part of the studio process? Seeing them live would probably change how I felt about this material. Or maybe I just need to listen to it again. I'm watching that video for An Iteration and I like the way that one sounds.
