Black Flag, 1979
I have seen a great many Black Flag photos in my day, but not these Keith Morris ones from 1979.
One of the best radio shows on the planet pops its/his head out of semi-retirement this week. Download or stream DJ Rick’s latest “Art for Spastics” from KDVS at the link.
CIRCLE ONE. Destroy Exxon, baby.
I’ll be stagediving and getting into fistfights tonight at COME’s 20th-anniversary reunion show in San Francisco, honoring the gap between the release of their amazing “Eleven: Eleven” album in late ‘92 and, well, this year, the year of the reissue of said album.
While this slashing track, “SVK”, doesn’t come from “Eleven: Eleven”, it was one of the band’s earliest numbers, as documented on the live disc included with the reissue. This studio version came out on an EP called “Wrong Side”, and was recorded in 1993. See you in the pit or in jail later tonight.
Hey gang, just wanted to make sure that if you enjoy the few things that are posted here on Dynamite Hemorrhage, you may also enjoy my other blog of culture & whatnot, THE HEDONIST JIVE.
Recent posts have focused on the TV show “Top of The Lake”; Moroccan 45rpm singles; Why I Bought a Kobo E-Reader; an amazing Danish film from 1998; Greek 78rpm music; How To Survive Without Google Reader, and more. And that’s just the past two weeks.
Check it out, drop a comment, tell a friend and all that.
You guys heard THE WIMPS yet? I’m pretty new to the cut of their jib, but I like what I hear. This song, “Slept In Late”, kicks off their debut LP “Repeat”.
Other parts of the record are more, uh, “angular” and have a wiry post-punk yet very snotty feel to them. Punkers. We love ‘em.
THE FLESH EATERS and friends in Los Angeles, would have been about 1982 or so.
I believe “Loup Garou” were a spinoff of Australia’s LIPSTICK KILLERS, who had moved to LA, but someone may need to check that for me. You can hear Chris D repeat those words – that band name – at the end of the song “Divine Horsemen”.
