Hickoids - Waltz A Crossdress Texas


The Hickoids second LP on Toxic Shock. Another hilarious ride with the cow punk Texans. Although not as edgy as the first LP, it still kicks ass with some classic songs like Queen of the bar-b-q and Brand new way.

Toxic Shock, 1989

Taken down due to copy right violation, sorry!

Nip Drivers - Oh Blessed Freak Show


The second LP from the Nip Drivers. In the Destroy Whitey post I stated that this album wasn't so good, but after a few more plays I have changed my mind. There are some good tunes on here and it deserves a listen. There is even a cover of Duran Duran's Rio. And besides, Mike Webber had one of the best punk voices ever.

MDC - Millions Of Dead Cops


A killer first LP from Austin, Texas's MDC who later relocated to San Francisco. Blazing fast political hardcore at it's best, released on their own label.

Articles Of Faith - Give Thanks


One of the most talented punk bands I've heard. Articles Of Faith from Chicago were a step above other hardcore bands at the time. This is an amazing album and is definitely required listening.

7 Seconds - The Crew


Do I really need to say anything? When I saw these guys play the P.A. system died so they went "unplugged" for a while but it was still awesome. A friends band opened for them. They sucked, but at least they got up there.
