  • Pailhead was great! I'm surprised Ian and Al worked together so well seeing as they're from two completely different worlds. Streets on Fire is still a classic. Great skaters, great songs. I'll totally have to check out Chris Connelly's book sometime.
  • Ian talks about them working together in the Wax Trax film.. so that will be interesting.
    The book is hilarious! well worth your time.
  • Yeah, Ian's stories are something I'm definitely looking forward to seeing!
  • I watched an episode of "Abandoned" recently, the one in New Orleans and Six Flags, with Rick McCrank, and Dee Slut who almost became lead singer of Black Flag had nothing nice to say about Ian,...which was interesting.

    I'm honestly not surprised. There are so many stories out there about how Ian in the early 80's was a complete turd of a person. He always bitched at people about little things, was very dogmatic and judgmental, etc.

    One guy said when he was a kid, him and his friend went to this old beat up club to see Minor Threat. While using the washroom, one of the old urinals fell off the wall and made a loud bang. Ian heard it, stormed in and yelled at the kids about how "this is why things can't be good" without even asking what happened or some shit. Apparently, this was very commonplace with him. Oh yeah, there's also the time he made a gang rape joke about this drunk chick at an Irving Plaza show. Go to 9:46

    Here is another band you need to check out if you are into the Industrial Wax Trax sound, LAIBACH. These guys hail from Slovenija, part of the old Yugoslavia, one of the Northern states close to Germany, whereas my parents came from Makedonija, one of the Southern states, close to Greece. Their singing is in Slovenski, Deutsch and English, and their music is a culmination of industrial, edm, and Wagneresque classical/neo political. They started in the very early 80's and are still around. Enjoy!

  • Some crazy shit, Wake!
  • HA! I had a college buddy who listened to Laibach back in 1990 or so. Haven't thought of that band since then.

    Lol, good shit though, and I knew I wasn't the only one who had heard of them.

    Speaking of Pailhead, Lard, Revolting Cocks and other hybrid bands....
    ...does anyone remember The Witchtrials, a hybrid of Jello Biafra and The Sounds from the UK, recorded their self-titled ep in 1981, with songs like The Taser, and Humanoids From The Deep. Pretty awesome shit! Jello reckons it's the most evil record he has worked on lol
  • I'm split on Lard. Some of their stuff was really good, but we thought we should give you a shirt that said "I made it all the way through I am Your Clock" if you actually could. What a horrible way to end an album.

  • Did you give a listen to the Mojo Nixon / Jello Biafra album?

  • Lol, I'm guessing you missed the 30 minute number on Power of Lard!

    Nope, I haven't heard all his side projects. I did see him with Guantanamo school of medicine though....rad!
  • This is one of my favorites hits of 1985!

  • Downloaded some Front 242 the other day. One of my spots is now a little-to-no-traffic situation now too, so definitely going to start rotating more tunes.
  • If you like Front 242, check out BiGod 20 "Steel Works!"



  • Solid, thanks.
  • Yo, this ain't Prince! This ain't Prince! It's Schoolly D, man!







  • Wire. We listen to Wire...
  • Back in the day.. Yuppies!!!
  • I saw DRI two nights ago here in Toronto. Way too fuckin rad! One dude was wearing a bones shirt, too.

  • Do you believe we have a Toronto near where I live as well Macca? The locals call it 'Tronno' as pronouncing all phonics displays a level of intelligence they only feign! ;)
  • Haha, sounds pretty accurate for over here, too.
  • Toronto is a haven for homo-hipsters. While it's pretty bad, it's better than fuckin Alberta. Inbred hick town.
