Re Post: Bhopal Stiffs

I met this guy last night at the Face To Face show at HOB in Anaheim that complimented me on my Naked Raygun shirt. Started talking about another Chicago band, Pegboy, to which I had asked him if he had heard Vince & Steve's first band, Bhopal Stiffs. To my surprise he hadn't. I told him about this site of mine where he could find all their music plus many other great Chicago bands. Not too sure if he would remember the site name seeing as he was pretty drunk. So if you did and you found it, this one's for you, & if you didn't then this one's for everyone else who's been wanting this since the link went dead. If you want more info on the band check out my original post here. Enjoy!

P.S. Fuck the House Of Blues! Racist Bastards! Got kicked out of last weeks F2F show cause some 6'5 white guy started shit with me & my girl. I'm only 5'8 and they kick me out saying I fronted him. Fat ass white security guard threw me out and said "Get out of here you fucking mexican!" I replied, "I bet you voted for McCain, didn't you?" Security: "You goddamn right I did!" I just laughed & said, "Guess what? Colors win bitch!" Don't you just love the racist world we live in?

No Trend II

Much to my dismay, I had no idea I had requests for the live No Trend show when I posted their Inner Ear Session way back when. So now that I figured out how to get updated on new comments, here you go! Recorded in 1983 at The Marble Bar in Baltimore, MD. This set features 5 songs that are not found on neither the inner ear session or any of their other records. Good stuff. Enjoy!

Note: If you've never heard Karma Nights off their second album, then please for god's sake get it here! Perhaps their best recorded song. Ridiculously awesome! KARMA! KARMA NIGHTS! Makes me wanna do the jitterbug.

Minor Threat/Youth Brigade

Here's a nice Austrian comp. that's got both Minor Threat's & Youth Brigade's first demos. Never been that big of a Minor Threat fan, so I've always loved the Youth Brigade side. Especially since it has four unreleased tracks not found on their sole E.P. The tracks here are much more raw then the ones found on their seven inch. Get this if not only for the thirty three seconds of pure manic bliss that is I Object. Great stuff. Enjoy!

(#2 on the Minor Threat side says it's Filler, but it's really Stand Up.)

The Dicks II

Peace? 7'' recorded in San Francisco with Spot. Released on R Radical records in 1984. What the hell can I say about these guys? If you don't know them by now, then you need to be shot! Believe me, it's from the heart.

Re-Ups II

Quite disappointing. I finally took the time to go through all the posts here on I Have A Brain In My Ass. It seems as though all links up to last month's Volcano Suns Greasy Spine 7'' have either been looped or deleted. That's a whole shit load of music gone. Like I said, quite disappointing. I now have the difficult task of going through all the posts (all the way back to Dec. 2007!) & re-uploading them all using sharebee. It will take some time, but please bear with me. Believe me, I hate going to sites & finding something I've been searching for for quite sometime, just to find out the link is dead. So for for all you music lovers out there, don't despair! I'll be re-uploading all posts starting with the most recent ones. I'll also include some new artwork scans. If anyone would like to see any certain one post re-upped sooner, please let know and I'll make those priority. For now, both Squirrel Bait records are back up due to requests. Long live great music!

Really Red

I'm not too sure exactly what it was about Texas that inspired so many pissed off kids to make so much great music. From bands like The Next, Hates, Huns, & Legionaire's Disease Band to The Dicks, Big Boys, Offenders, MDC, & of course, Really Red. All their records were released on their own CIA records, starting with the Crowd Control 7'' in 1979. The next year came the Modern Needs 7''. 1981 saw the release of both the Despise Moral Majority E.P. & the magnificently untouchable Teaching You The Fear LP. With 1982 came perhaps their best 7'', the New Strings For Old Puppets E.P.

As their final output, the Rest In Pain LP came out in 1985. Released a year after they had already disbanded, this album may not be as great as their last two releases, but it still harvested some great songs. Youth Culture For Sale is still one of my favorite tracks along with Nobody Rules, Personal Hell, & Balance of Terror. On second thought, this album is just as great as their two previous. The only tracks that bring the album down are the agonizing Star Mangled Banner & the unbelivably excruciating Just The Facts, Ma'am. So there you have it, legitimate rips of every record from one the greatest Texan bands ever. (except for Teaching You The Fear which comes from a remastered CD. What are you gonna do?) Enjoy!

Re-Ups

It's recently come to my attention that Zshare has been looping certain links. I found out my Rifle Sport Voice Of Reason post was one of these. I've re-uploaded the link which you can find here. If Zshare continues to loop links I'll be forced to use a different host. If anyone comes across any other looped or disabled links and wishes to have them re-uploaded, please notify me and this will be done so right away. Thanks!
