Zuma and Tonights the Night

And I guess since everyone seems to be mentioning a Steve record,
Viva Last Blues, is worthy of praise.


I really like the sound of Innervisons, especially the drums.

Drunks With Guns - The first side of Second Verses - Recording quality is completely fucked, but in a great way = sounds like it was recorded underwater, but somehow adds to the total evilness of the music. Their lyrics weren't so hot, but that guitar tone gave birth to AmRep noise-rock, says I.

Drunks With Guns - "Wonderful Subdivision (original version)" - The sound of this song is just unbelievable...probably the one professionally recorded track in their catalog. Heaviest rhythm section sound I've ever heard in my life, except Swans.


I am in total agreement, but the track Zombie should be included in there as well. I want a copy of the later version of Wonderful Subdivision. I don't have that one.

"Zombie" is included with the entirety of the first side of Second Verses - it's the leadoff track. Jesus God - it's just evil. Do you know how to play "Zombie"? I've been trying to figure that one out recently.

I can send both versions of "Wonderful Subdivision" to the EA mailbox and you can compare them.

What's the address/password again?

Both are equally astounding, though in different ways. The later version (if I am correct) was recorded during the same sessions for what became the first side of Second Verses and has that kind of sound - guitar upfront, fucked but beautiful recording quality, Mike Doskocil howling like a maniac...you know.
Life...life...I know it's got its ups and downs.

I was hanging with a few crusty punkers yesterday who kept listening to Leftover Crack's "Fuck World Trade" and saying how great the recording was. I never really listened to it before, but yeah, it has a great sound. Cheers.

Hail Mary and Born Against have excellent fucking recordings. So raw and ballsy.
