Corrosion Of Conformity - Eye For An Eye

 My wife has been gettting after me to take a good picture of our smallest but toughest dog Hoss.  You have to see him to believe him, but if he had been a big dog he would be scary.  I was ripping 7"s, but nothing was really screaming out to me as something that needed to be posted right away.  I started looking through LPs, but damn they take so long to rip, edit, label, upload and post.  If you have your own blog you know what I'm talking about, don't you?  My final product isn't as good as some others though who really put a lot of energy into their rips.  This particular record though is worth it.  For 20 years I just had it on tape and then about a year ago my bro Brian sent the vinyl to me, so I am passing it on to you.  I remember not liking the next album, at this cool site, http://myfatetohate.wordpress.com/2008/05/26/corrosion-of-conformity-animosity/ because it followed the crossover trend that was popular back in the day.  I've grown up a litttle bit and appreciate that one too.  As usual wikipedia has a nice little history for you here, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrosion_of_conformity .  Anyway here's the music

What? Negative Outlook Positive Outlook No Drunk College Town Not Safe Eye For An Eye Nothing’s Gonna Change Track 20 (Green Manalisha) You must go and check out this blog, http://kickthehomeless.blogspot.com/ not just for the FREE MUSIC but for the great writting.  John really puts a lot of time, energy and thought into his great posts.  Keeping with that C.O.C. theme he did a great post on them highlighting their music from the No Core comp cassette.  You can find that here, http://kickthehomeless.blogspot.com/2008/06/corrosion-of-conformity-no-core-comp.html .  I almost like this better than Eye For An Eye.  Be sure and check that out there and leave a comment, but for your listening pleasure I uploaded the tunes with direct links for your listening pleasure (I hope he doesn't mind). :-)

Bikes & VW's

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO COMMENT!

After doing an Airbourne post a little while back our friend Chris over at his killer, Small Take Over/ suggested we check out a band (and a guy) called Danko Jones.  Pretty mainstream like Airbourne, which doesn't necessarily mean bad, but seriously hard hitting rock and roll.  Check out the tune he suggested, and let me know what you think.  Thanx Chris... [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFILyfqavvM] Just a pic I found of a pretty cool bike while surfing around.  A lot of work went into that. I am a little more lo-key and simple in my bike desires.  This was in the local Wheels For You classifieds, but even for that cheap of a price, I would be hard put to pick up one or both of those little gems up.  A vintage Honda CB350 would do nice getting me back and forth to work.  Thinking of motorcycles made me think of this tune, Zeke - God Of GSXR.  I may have to do a full post on them at some point... [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTUccq8ixpE&w=560&h=315] Back when I was in high school in the mid 80's I drove a late model Volkswagen bug.  Nothing fancy, just my ride to get me and my bros from point A to point B.  To be honest with you I was a little embarassed by it back then because it really was nothing special.  Now that I'm older I wish I had that bug back and I realize that what's important is just having a running vehicle.  Fancy cars are a luxury and I'm not a luxurious person.  Back at that time everyone was into slammed mini trucks and the ever useful for city living, big lifted 4x4's.  All my friends though were into VW's and some of them really had some sweet rides.  I've never really looked at a car as much more than a tool but every once in a while I am impressed.  Slammed Sixty and it kind of took me back to when we (my friends and I) all had our VW's.

Ah what the hell here's another one of my favorite Zeke tunes... [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2vKRDgOAko]

MDC 7"s

 I could give you a history I am only vaguely familiar with or regurgitate this, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MDC_(band) and actually KFTH's,  http://homepages.nyu.edu/~cch223/usa/mdc_main.html would be even better, but I don't think I will.  Instead I will remind you of this live post I did a while back, http://mustard-relics.com/2007/12/12/mdc/ .  I think the one complaint about these guys a lot of people have is that they're to "preachy".  My experience though is that most people love to voice they're opinions.  I don't know.  Like everyone these days they have a myspace here, http://www.myspace.com/mdc . The best 7" in my opinion is their first one but unfortunately I don't own it.  Like almost everything these days of internet information overload though, the music is out there, you just need to look in the right place.  Our buddy Erich was kind enough to offer that first 7" here, http://www.goodbadmusic.com/2006/12/26/stains-john-wayne-was-a-nazi-bw-born-to-die-7-rradical-records-usa-1980/

If anybody knows where I can find a rip of their split with Capitalist Casualties, please let me know.  I was bidding on one on Ebay but I don't have the money that it went for.  I'm also looking to hear the Submissives (Dave MDC and Pig Champion) "An Anvil Will Wear Out Many A Hammer" if anybody has that.

  Multi Death Corporations 7"

 

Multi-Death Corporation Selfish Shit Radioactive Chocolate No Place To Piss   Millions Of Dead Children 7"

 

Chicken Squawk Death Of A Nun Kleptomaniac You can get both these 7"s here, http://ferryconnor.blogspot.com/2008/09/mdc-millions-of-dead-copsmore-dead-cops.html, along with a bunch of other stuff. I stumbled across this page, http://www.digitalsharkstudio.com/albatrossdrums/WebPages/mdcaudio.html , from a former, later drummer (2000's) of the band but I didn't take the time to figure out which one.  You should definately check out the page for some insights to some later history and I went ahead and uploaded direct links to the songs you can find on that page.

 

Sick Of It Chock Full Of Shit I Remember Big River (Johnny Cash cover)

As I'm enjoying doing lately I went ahead and embeded some videos for you.  I have both of these shows on VHS, one of which has a good set from Crucifix, but I haven't taken the time (who has that? not me) to start uploading video yet.
