Sad how The Decline is damn near prophetic 15 years later.

If you guys are ever interested in selling punk vinyl please contact me, im always looking.  Bad brains is one of those bands you have to listen thru the record a few times.  Like a LOT of punk/hardcore, they tend to grow on you more and more, I wouldn't consider bad brains to be a "first listen" band.  But nonetheless extremely energetic, talented and influential band.  My favorite cuts are probably black dots and pay to cum.  You have probly heard this, but apparently they were all classically trained jazz musicians .  Also HR was noted for being a huge homophone -- very anti-gay (Rastafarian)

Bands like Bad Brains, Minor Threat, Black Flag, Cramps will always mean the world to me.  I remember first hearing BB in middle school and was blow away.  In a predominantly white punk scene, how crazy it is that 4 black dudes from DC pretty much started the hardcore punk genre.  HR is a nutcase, i've meet him several times.  Weird dude.  I don't know if they were trained musicians but they started as a jazz/funk/fusion band.

hahah sorry about that -- knew the word, didn't type it right.   Oh well heres whats on the platter for today..  2 EXTREMELY different sounds.  Both very enjoyable to me.   Up 1st its Youngstown's finest, Mr. Stiv Bators and the Dead Boys debut LP.  After that im changing directions completely and playing some Latin Dance comp from the 50's.  Its great -- Latin music paired with some red wine and crank the heat to 85, pittburgh can actually be a tolerable place to live!
