Marble – Spinning Around (2017)

Another re-issue of an old album released a while ago. This is the Japanese reissue of the Taystee Records original release. It’s remastered and includes some bonus tracks that the original version doesn’t have.

The Coup de Grace
First Avenue Mainroom
Minneapolis, MN
27 May 1989

This was the era of the demo tape. They must have sold a metric shit ton of those Bombs Away tapes. I think everyone in town expected these guys to get real big on the metal scene, including themselves. Not sure why that never happened. I know they had some sort of deal with a major label, and put out an album on Red Decibel.

I went to high school with the bass player, Curtis. I remember watching them practice in his parents basement once. Really nice guy. The singer, Jimmy was the metal hipster in town (I don’t mean that in a bad way), and went on to play with Andrew WK.

Listen to that crowd sing along for a band that hadn’t existed in a decade! That is the power of the Strike. What a F’n great band!

D4 may have been the most nationally well-known band on the bill, but everybody, including D4 knows that the Strike were the best band on the bill. If I remember correctly, the Strike headlined the night, because who wants to play after them?
