Snatch a shameful record from your former self...

There was a second Tonio K album? Jesus. Jules and the Polar Bears... the Yachts? Fuck.

..No way. No way! Two Alan Parsons Project albums? Go to your room!


Man, my cousin Tom Tucker had two 8-tracks in his gorgeous copper-colored Chevy van: I, Robot and one half of The Beatles' 1967-70. Although I was only eight or ten years old, whenever he'd pop in the Alan Parsons Project, I would beg him to put in The Beatles. And I was not a fan of The Beatles.

I haven't thought about Jules and the Polar Bears in years. Never heard 'em, though--I drew a line in the new wave sand after the Cretones and the Fabulous Poodles.

My mind is being blown. I kinda want to hear these bands now.


I have "Everybody's Mad at Katherine" on an ancient mix tape somewhere. And that one decent Fabulous Poodles song I can't remember the name of. Kinda sounds like the Kinks.

The members of Tommy Tutone once wandered into a downtown Louisville club where my band Malignant Growth was playing; they did not stay for more than two songs--and our songs were about two minutes long.

The members of Midnight Starr hung around much longer, but they were visibly drunk and were most likely just tripping out on the crazy white folks. Nice guys, though.

I'll let the artists's own biographies help you figure out what my shit smells like.

Lyrics such as "Sick of all your faces/stick of all your lies/Sick of getting pressured into things that I despise" from "No More Mr. Nice Guy" were shouted out like battle cries from the crowds at their explosive live shows at CBGB's Hardcore Matinees. "Wall of Hate", "My Reason", and "Telltale" are other songs off the demo that gained them the reputation of being one of the heaviest and truest sounding New York Hardcore Bands. They kept it raw, but were able to add tricky melodic riffs and insightful lyrics.
