pills, irrational fear, the smile on a newborn kitten. Oh yeah, and Drive Like Jehu, The Jesus Lizard, Quicksand(first 7"),The Birthday Party, Excuse 17, Fugazi, Babes In Toyland, Voidoids, The Clash, Filth, Nick Gilder, Southern Death Cult, N.O.U., U.O.A., Andrew Eldritch in a white suit holding a sword cane, Jawbreaker, Archers Of Loaf, God Bullies, Mission Of Burma, all that other stuff that our friends used to be into but, now, not so much. And, fuck it, Cringer.
Sounds Like
Nick Cave without the Elvis fixation, Fugazi without the politics.
