Sun., August 8, 10-12 PM
It was a fun, high energy show this week. I even got a number of requests, but I couldn't find any of them back in our depleted, mis-alphabetized stacks.
1. Vibrators, "I Need a Slave," CBS Records, 1977.
2. Dicks, "Dicks Hate the Police", Alternative Tentacles: Reissue of track originally on Radical Records.
3. Avengers, "Car Crash," Dangerhouse Records, 1977.
4. Cosmic Psychos, "Crazy Woman," Mr. Spaceman Records, 1985.
-----------------------------------------------
5. Threats, "Pacivity," Playlist Records, 1981: From the Scottish 7" comp Backlash!
6. Chronic Disorder, "I See Red," Self Release, 1984: From the Fred 7". Great Connecticut punk/hardcore. Nothing funnier than listening to Connecticut boys say, "Oi! Oi! Oi!"
7. Damned, "Feel the Pain," Stiff Records, 1977.
8. Metal Urbain, "Panik," Cobra Records, 1977: Wild French synth punk. If you like this, check out the comprehensive Metal Urbain retrospective on Acute Records.
9. Fat Day, "Lil' Things," 100% Breakfast Records, 2002: Check out Fat Day at the Werehouse on Aug. 26. Each tour is different. Two years ago they wore and played home made synth helmets and did songs mostly composed by fans of the band (who sent in a write-your-own-song postcards included in their last record). This time is sure to bring something else. They now have out a singles retrospective and soon have out a new album.
