Most people are completely unaware of what he was doing at the begining of his career, and how vital and real that music was. Very different from the stuff that made him popular.
Hell yeah, man! I love the first disc of that king biscuit live collection, done just before he was going to break out with the Joker. That's just great shit.Spectrum 4/28/03

this was one of my favorite bands to come out of the 90's. So glad I got to see them live before their demise. Seconds Before the Accident is such a good live disc, White Trash Heroes and Dead Red Eyes give me chills.NCBRI wrote:Archers of Loaf - There is a video at the VH1 page (click the link for the page) for "Web in Front". The video is pretty bad, but its a great song and if anyone has the soundtrack to Kevin Smith's Mallrats you will recognize the song.0 -

Thelonious Monster was an great band, especially live. ...Baby, you're bumming me out in a supreme fashion is one of my favorite albums. I'd love to find that one on CD. Wonder what Bob is up to these days.
Great to see them mentioned here!"You're no help," he told the lime. This was unfair. It was only a lime; there was nothing special about it at all. It was doing the best it could.

one of my all time favorite bands. Check out "You're Living All Over Me". your life will never be the same."What’s Orphans? I don’t know. Orphans is a dead end kid driving a coffin with big tires across the Ohio River wearing welding goggles and a wife beater with a lit firecracker in his ear." - Tom Waits0 -
Comus - Folk/Prog from the early 70's. They released two albums in their carreer, First Utterance being the only one of importance. They are very weird, but also insanely good
Blue Cheer - Early hard rock
Robin Trower - Amazing guitarist0 -
