3·11 days agoI first heard of The Cramps through their cover of Primitive, originally by The Groupies. I liked that version, but never gave The Cramps a more thorough listen. Back in 2022 I stumbled upon their song Call of the Wighat and I fell in love with it instantly. So, of course, I had to get Smell of Female on Vinyl when I started collecting.
I found Swervedriver through the incredible soundtrack of Road Rash for the Playstation 1, way back in '95 or '96. That game introduced me to many bands that I still count to my favorites today. Soundgarden, PAW, Hammerbox and Swervedriver. Back then it was just good music, but by now all of these songs bring so much nostalgia with them. This album especially brings me back to those days.

Fell in love with the slower side of metal about 10 years ago. Somewhere around then I listened to Dopesmoker for the first time. Today I stumbled upon a sealed copy of the 2022 repress in my local record store, first time spinning it right now. I had to turn the volume way up, but damn it sounds so heavy.
I discovered The Black Angels while playing “Spec Ops: The Line”, many many years ago.
Here are some more photos of the beautiful double LP gatefold. It’s the 2023 rerelease.
Stumbled upon their album Geneva years ago. Liked it a lot but never listened to the rest until a few months ago. Should have done that much earlier.
Now if they would just rerelease Geneva on vinyl.
Suicide
I discovered Suicide through Henry Rollin’s fantastic cover of Ghost Rider. Listened to that one dozens of times since first hearing it in The Crow back in 95 or so. Four or five years ago I had an obsession with that song, downloaded every cover I could find and finally listened to the original for the first time. Well, now I play this album once or twice a month, I guess I went full circle after 30 years.
You are very welcome.
2·6 months agoListened to that one again just yesterday. I really like El-P and his part is great, but it just doesn’t fit the rest of the song, in my opinion.
Sorry my lord, here you go.
