The Sonics doing their classic Strychine, from 1965.

These guys were punk 10 years before there was a word for it, and were grunging out Seattle 30 years before Cobain et al came along.

Can I make a request to the mods please? Well, Dunph, as heā€™s the only one with any power. Can you give the authority to Farmer or Fagan to remove posts they deem undesirable from this thread please. The embarrassment of being associated with Brian Adams or that Bizarre drivel will kill this thread and eventually the forum.

Or just kill Totti. Carryharry can be amusing at times, Iā€™ll put the Adams thing down to youthful exuberance, or overindulgence in drugs.

So we still havenā€™t banned carryharry from this thread then no?

Nothing wrong with the last 2 songs posted. Never heard of the first one.

That Urge Overkill song has been playe to death, shit sick of it.

Farmer knows the score, very impressed with your recent recommendations above too. :clap:
