Definitely a blog to follow! I've had a great time with her stories of the Cramps, Stiv Bators, the Ramones, etc. And this is just the start! Thanks, Kopper!

We discovered Kicksville 66 just recently. Great stories, memories, and ephemera Linna's got.

Miriam of Norton Records fame has a new blog, y'all. Here's the link: http://kicksville66.blogspot.com/ And the RSS feed: http://kicksville66.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss Dig it!

My friend and I just found a tape of an old 1980s punk radio show. We couldn't identify one song and thought the garagepunk community could help. The lyrics go:

Fast Attack, Fast Attack, Fast Attack, Fast Attack
Speed into the ocean but it can't come back
stopped up for a motion but it won't come back
its a Fast Attack

C'mon Russia, C'mon Ronnie
C'mon Russia, show us what you've got

OK Ronnie we got the A-Team
to solve all the problems of the nuclear submarine
Why should we spend all of our money on a fast attack


There's more about Russia and Ronnie and Fast Attack 4X


Any help with this song?

Their Chiswick label singles weren't bad.

These SD records aren't worth the smashing - ALL of them. REPLAY: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tQ19tAw6h0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mFXtkzOzx0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckjuux3UE7E

Antisocial was an ok song. That's about it,imo.

As the old saying goes the only good nazi is a dead nazi. I like 'Surf Nazi Goes Nutzoid' by DSC-GB - http://www.myspace.com/dscgb Which is dedicated to the nazi singer in badkardriver.

yes brother
you are right but that has always been like that by every turn of the century the repetition started so if you really want to hear something exiting and new we have to wait for that alien transplant that enables us to hear different frequencies or maybe we should just wait for someone to invent a new instrument
you know charlie parker wanted to have nothing to do with the academics by improvising the shit out of his sax until he dies of an exhaust and has an overdose of heroin
he was probably turning in his grave when he found out that it took the academic world over 30 years to analize his improvisations and that's what kids learn in school today as modern harmonics to become the great jazzer but i gotta tell you i played with a couple of those learned musicians they can play anything you tell them to play better then you could ever play it but they play with their heads and not with their guts like we do
so don't worry as long as we stick together there is always a chance that those unheard sound come knocking at your door
just be patience

hey Tobi...

yes, i had some Ultimate Spinach records when I was in high school, yeah, not you average hard rock! hahahaha! as i know you for about 20 years i always witnessed your ability to not give a fuck what was hip and cool and do your own thing. i have always been proud of your for that! your theory about the 'new sound' is true to an extent. i feel like since the hit of 2000 now all we can do is mash all these international styles together to make anything 'new'. and it still ends up sounding like something we've heard... oh well, next life - next planet - next frequencies!

hello Brother Panti-christ
i know there is more out there, very obscure stuff, like the ultimate spinach or zerfas . have you heard of them?
what i learn since listening to music is that when the press says "this is the new sound" you can always go back in time way back in time when troglodytes ruled the world and find a band that did exactly the same but never made it
for my own music career i can say the same like i consider myself under the underground because i'm too avantgarde
to swim along with the regular underground maybe in 20 years someone will digout the stuff i did and calle me a pioneer
who knows
keep on with sonic nightmares its the only radio i listen too

whether or not the clash is punk is in the end irrelevant they were an amazing band hard working producing tons of great songs and giving generations to come the pleasure of rebellion against their parents or something else
remember in the stone roses first big interviews they said this is rave music & then like 5 or 6 years later ravers became xtc popping cokeheads that go to clubs & listen to a rhythm-mashine and call it music or just listen to what they call soul music or rhythm & blues today it makes me puke
yeah i think the ramones started it all wherever they went they left a trail of new bands but one of my all time favorites of british 77 era punk were the drones or what about the jam the first 2 albums were very punky before they got labeled mods
anyway i just got the dvd called unknown passage it's the dead moon story, now check this movie out and tell me why aren't they in the r'n'r hall of fame

Isn't PUNK the name the tough guys in prison called the little guys they fuck in the ass?? That's what I heard!

I know I'm taking this a bit further off topic, but I think Johnny Singles brings up a great point about the Sex Pistols being considered THE defining British punk band. I would take this a step further, and say they've been anointed as THE defining punk band period. And it's a bit nauseating. It's as if it's too difficult for the listening public, and music industry as a whole to actually listen to the music - but instead define the pioneering punk movement based solely on perception. You mentioned their Today Show appearance. I'd say that, along with the 60 Minutes piece done in the U.S., defined not only the band, but the entire punk rock scene to an unacquainted audience. Since then, I think there's been a bit of a backlash by the true music fans, such as yourself - annoyed that punk became this label, associated greatly with the Pistols, and upset about the lack of recognition for the other great punk acts of the era - most notably the Clash. And while I agree there are things to scoff at regarding the Sex Pistols - you mentioned both McLaren and Vicious (and the band was over once Matlock left, as far as I'm concerned). Also, it's annoying seeing the overly simplistic recognition place upon the Sex Pistols. However, the backlash against the Pistols by music fans is generally unwarranted, and is often not based on the music itself.
Btw - we all know that THE defining punk band is really the Ramones.

yeah i hear what you're saying ... but that's my point, i don't think you can categorize The Clash's sound.

the clash are punk, it is their attitude that was punk all the way from the way they looked to the way they sounded
did you know that the word punk was first used by a radio dj from texas in 1966 describing the standells sound?

Thanks a lot !!! We need a band name now... any ideas??? Gas-House Gorilla said:

Here you go. And good luck:

She fights like a cornered animal.
And she shows all her claws.
Says all the wrong things to hurt me.
She just knows them all.
One second and she's so shy.
Then she just blows up.
It's like dropping a stick of dynamite,
In a Dixie cup.

She's volatile.
She's my baby.
Nitroglycerine.
Nitroglycerine.
Nitroglycerine.

She'll tantalize me.
Till I got to explode.
When I'm up there with her.
You just go go go.
Then she starts to bite me.
Man I just don't know.
She starts taking chunks of flesh.
Like a dog on a bone.

She's volatile.
She's my baby.
Nitroglycerine.
Nitroglycerine.
Nitroglycerine.

I just don't know.
What'll happen next.
Will she want to fight with me, or
Will she just want sex?
I say girl you get us killed.
She just laughs and says,
Baby, if I die with you,
It'll be the answer to all my prayers.

She's volatile.
She's my baby.
Nitroglycerine.
Nitroglycerine.
Nitroglycerine.
