Blanks 77 Split 7″
No one in this state has ever done goofy-punk better than Quincy Punx. The Minnesota version of the Meatmen. A couple of albums, a bunch of 7 inchers and compilation tracks to their credit (and probably at least as many bass players). C’mon Bob from the QP’s even released an album by FEAR on his “I’ll Be Dead in Hell Records”. What’s more punk than that?
Once again from the Up the fuckin’ punx blog.

California Sun


Midnight Hour / The Witch


“I Like It Like That” w/ Buzz Barker

The brothers Batson know how to deliver the rock better than most Minnesota rock bands could ever dream of. Amazing covers, and even more amazing originals. If you ever run across the studio version of 6654321…It’s a classic! Post it somewhere so I can link to it.

Hypstrization
Great record. Balls out rock from 1979. Recorded at Jay’s Longhorn in Minneapolis. A very hard to find piece of wax the first time around, the second release is almost as hard to find.

The Murderers

Self Titled 7″ 1996
Bob fuckin’ Murderer. Right on. Was anyone more drunk than Bob? Ever? Drunk punk rock from Minneapolis by way of Indiana. From the Havoc Records website:
Totally chaotic Punk/HC in the Disorder, Bad Posture tradition. At the heart of the Murderers is the legendary Bob Murderer who has kept versions of this band going since the early 80’s. One incarnation backed GG Allin for a while. Bob also played in the Vampire Lesbos and many other bands in the 80’s. Moving to Minnesota Bob got a new line up together and recorded these songs, some new, some from the mid 80’s. Totally irreverent drunk drugged chaos punk with a ton of energy and power. This 7″ is a blast of pure chaos. The Murderers lineup changed several times. Sid From Misery took over on drums when Mitch Useless left to play in Servitude and later Code 13. The Murderers sound changed somewhat later on. Their subsequent recordings sounded more like the US Bombs or Sex Pistols. But this 7″ is pure, hate filled hardcore punk. The Murderers released a split 12″ picture disk with the Jerkoffs on Beer City in 1999. They played a final show and broke up in 2000.

This record went out of print in 2008.

Me

It’s my birthday, so fuck off , I’m not posting anything today.

Maybe you need a date after spending all that time in your basement by yourself.  Maybe you’ve got a significant other, but they are frigid ?  What would I know?  Why would I care?  Maybe you just need a record of it all?

Go away already.

Posting starts again tomorrow.

Armenian Heatwave Dance Party

Recorded live at 1st Avenue in Minneapolis in late 1984 (I think). Originally released as a cassette only and available at Northern Lights and maybe a few other local music stores.

The recording starts out very muddy during the opening of Bliss but brightens about halfway through the song and remains pretty good for the duration.

There are a total of 12 tracks.

All in all, a pretty good example of the UGs live.

Replacements

Live 7th Street Entry 1985

The Replacements show is a classic. It’s from October 18, 1985 and I think it was the first show (UPDATE: it was the Friday night show, #4) of a 5 night stand at the 7th Street Entry in support of their first album on a Major Label – Tim . If you never saw the Replacements in concert, this show is a must. It has it all: the classics, goofy covers and mayhem. Don’t worry, it doesn’t disintegrate into a drunken mess, it is top notch from beginning to end.

Stolen from the Lost Forest After Dark blog.
