They accidentally appeared in my playlist the other night against my will.
I did not mind.
Listen to robot hive/exodus and from beale Street to oblivion.
One is the last of their "hard era" albums and the other is the first of their "blues era" albums. Both are excellent
Okay. Holy shit.
These guys undeniably do rock. This is kind of the kind of thing I thought had died and went away for awhile there, before realising it was just mainstream programming eschewing REAL rocking quality stuff for the pop pap or otherwise "harmless" product they DO shill for..
I WOULD HAVE booked these guys for a show, if I got this as a demo. Obviously. Only a huge faggot wouldn't. Man, I maybe should get back into that business again. It chuffs me splendidly how my old place is tertiarily legendary; having only been a little dive WAAY outside of Los Angeles... but we did a thing that needed doing, AND it paid the bills, for a time!
I'd hate having to book communist bands just because they "rock" now, though. I was pretty apolitical back in the day. I wonder where I went wrong, because thinking back to my disdain for it all seems like the correct position now... but now is clown world and then was... only nascent clown world, and our 60s/70s/ and 80s outlook precluded noticing how shit everything was getting, assuming that everything was just going to get better over time due to REASONS...
Jeez. Sorry. I digress. This rocks.
For some reason, it makes me somehow more warm and happy to have one in the chamber in the pistol at my hip now. Music that does that is special. American. Perhaps SACRED.
I told you brother they are the gospel. Idk what their political leanings or backgrounds or whatever are. I don't care they make great American rock and roll they are just some dudes from Maryland and that's all I wanna know lol.
And as far as being apolitical I get you. Shit didn't really get bad till about a decade ago. Everything was moving up until they started pushing hard for identity politics because they were losing control of the masses. What you were doing was helping then lose that control.
These both sound relevant to my interests. (pic8.co)
HELLLLL YEAHHH BROTHHEERRRRRR
