I seem to remember a second guitarist, with Erik still playing drums too, but I could be wrong. For me personally, this was as dark period for the band. The songs seemed to slow down, the guitar solos seemed to get longer,

- [Vile](http://MNPunk.com/?p=156) - Demo Vile was Minneapolis' metal version of the Mentors. Pure porn-metal. Fast, hard and explicit. As far as I know, this was the only thing ever released by the band. Vile was made up of former (and future) Impaler members Mike Senn & Gilligan. When Vile broke up, Gilligan went on to become Miss Glenda
- [Big Mambo](http://MNPunk.com/?p=603) - Cat Hair Haven Okay, not much "punk" here but c'mon, it was produced by Bill Batson for fucks sake. Pretty typical indie rock for the time (1987). I don't know much about them. If you do, post it as a comment. Get it here .

- [Test Monkey](http://MNPunk.com/?p=599) - Demo I wish I knew more about these guys. Test Monkey were a sort of industrial/noise/punk band from Minneapolis. They played a lot at First Ave., likely because their guitarist worked there. I saw them a few times, but remember liking this tape a lot more then seeing them live. That's just my opinion though.

Thanks to the help of Taco Sean, history was made. "Theres a whole lotta hardcore goin on, goin on
- [Compilation](http://MNPunk.com/?p=226) - Lung Cookies Compilation Smoke Seven/Your Flesh The influence of Your Flesh was pretty heavy since almost half the bands are from Minnesota. Classic early 80's Minnesota punk from Final Conflict, Otto's Chemical Lounge, Willful Neglect, Boy Elroy, Red Meat & Ground Zero. Check this one out! Get it here .
- [Otto's Chemical Lounge](http://MNPunk.com/?p=223) - Self Titled 7" from 1983 One of the oringal Refelx Records. Only one track here, but worth a listen. Also worth the history lesson over at MVX's Punk Vault. The lineup for this 7″ was: Dale Nelson: vocals Paul Osby: guitar John Anglim: drums Tom Hazelmyer: bass Get it here .
- [Suicide Commandos](http://MNPunk.com/?p=84) - Burn it Down The Burn it down video! Suicide Commandos were probably the earliest MN Punk band. I can honestly say that I love just about everything they've recorded. My most recent favorite is the Live CD from Sound 80 that aired on KQRS a million years ago. I honestly just don't see ol' KQ92
- [Suicide Commandos](http://MNPunk.com/?p=219) - Make a Record What can I say about the band largely credited with starting the whole MN Punk scene? Released in 1978 on Blank Records, these guys were the godfathers of MN Punk. Just a short list of bands that were influenced by them: Husker Du, Replacements, & Soul Asylum. Um, those bands, and their
- [Quincy Punx](http://MNPunk.com/?p=216) - Shot in 1996. A 5 piece here (I don't ever remember a 2nd guitarist), with Frank on Bass.
- [Quincy Punx](http://MNPunk.com/?p=212) - (me) This was the 7" that started it all! Local kings of the drunk punx, these guys knew how play some classic style punk rock with a sense of humor. Great record. Great band. If you don't own it, you need to! I hear they still play an occasional show now and then. Get it
- [Libido Boyz](http://MNPunk.com/?p=209) - "Beaten Man" (by Outcry) In the early 80's Outcry was my favorite HC band. I got to see them a few times, and they had that awesome record on Positive Force. Outside of that EP, and the "Another Shot for Braken" comp, that was about it for them in the 80's. Long after they broke
- [Blind Approach](http://MNPunk.com/?p=207) - Restless Nights The first release by these St. Paul skinheads. 3 songs on black vinyl. Hardcore with some serious asperations for metal. I shot video of these guys back in 1989, just before they broke up in the 7th St. Entry. You can see that video over at BasementShows.com . Guitarist Matt Henderson
- [Bloodline](http://MNPunk.com/?p=204) - Can't Rest on the Times I don't have much to say about Bloodline. I was never into the whole skinhead hardcore stuff. Bill was a really nice guy. Original roadie for Blind Approach. Founding member of Extreme Noise. I think they played in our basement once or twice. This would have been their 2nd record,
- [Disturbed](http://MNPunk.com/?p=199) - Disturbing the Peace The late Earl Root was Minneapolis metal. No one did more in this town to promote metal, than Earl did. He was in bands, ran record labels, owned a record store, and had a late-night metal radio show on KFAI for more years than I can count. Disturbed was one of Earl's
- [Man Sized Action](http://MNPunk.com/?p=195) - Claustrophobia Man Sized Action are one of my favorite 80's MPLS bands. Claustrophobia is their first record, put out on Husker's label Reflex Records. This is really a great record and worth the time to download. Also, take look for the link to Five Story Garage, their 2nd album which is also a gem! Stolen
- [Cows](http://MNPunk.com/?p=193) - Cunning Stunts Honestly, the cows always struck me as a bit to artsy. I saw them a couple of time, and I own the first album, but it didn't do much for me...couple of good songs...just not my cup of tea. Maybe someone else has a better story to write about them. Stolen from the
- [The Short Fuses](http://MNPunk.com/?p=178) - Get the hell down Second album by the Short Fuses . I really don't know much about the Short Fuses. Maybe someone could educate me. Until then...I stole this from City Pages: AS TWIN GUITARS roar like Sabbath's Tommy Iommi in a cutting session with the Stooges' James Williamson, Fuses frontwoman Miss Georgia Peach declares,
- [The Short Fuses](http://MNPunk.com/?p=188) - #1 First album from the Short Fuses. From the awesome Son’s of the Doll’s blog. Get it here .
- [The Short Fuses](http://MNPunk.com/?p=182) - Duchess hustle Third album from the Short Fuses. From the awesome Son’s of the Doll’s blog. Get it here .
- [Impaler](http://MNPunk.com/?p=150) - Decay If we had brains...we'd be dangerous My personal favorite Minnesota metal band. Impaler. I first discovered these guys from my friends in Death Squad. Impaler & Death Squad were both from the St. Paul area (like myself) and backyard keg party's and metal just seem to go together....so it's fitting that the first place
- [Midnight Evils](http://MNPunk.com/?p=174) - Breakin' It Down Hands down one of Minnesota's mightiest rock bands of the 2000's. The Midnight Evils were the real deal. Screamin' and howlin' garage rock. A must own record! Posted on the "Born in the basement" blog. Wooo! Get it here . Midnight Evils on Drinking With Ian Midnight Evils Thunderbird Beerland Austin, TX
- [Assrash](http://MNPunk.com/?p=170) - Jesus was a drunk More crust than a PB&J. Split with Flees and Lice also posted here. Get it here .
- [Dragnet](http://MNPunk.com/?p=168) - Life in general Another posting stolen from the Willfully Obscure blog. I know nothing of them other than this record came out in the 90's. Get it here .
- [First Avenue](http://MNPunk.com/?p=166) - Hayday Okay, First Ave. is not a band, so why I am listing them here? Simply, no single place has done more for the Minnesota punk scene than First Ave. They gave the Ramones & Black Flag, a place to play. They helped foster this whole punk scene, from the Suicide C0mmandos, Hypstrz, Husker Du,
- [Rifle Sport](http://MNPunk.com/?p=161) - Primo Rifle Sport were another of that first wave of punk bands in Minnesota. They are also one of those bands that I don't know much about. In the 90's Chris Johnson started his own record label, Big Money Inc. Which, in it's heyday seemed to be putting out a new record twice a week.
- [Suicide Commandos](http://MNPunk.com/?p=159) - Suicide Commandos - 1977 - Mark He's A Terror 7'' Suicide Commandos - 1976 - Emission Control 7'' I just keep stumbling on Commandos stuff. Here's two very long out of print Commandos 7" EP's. posted on the isksp blog. Both very much worth your time to check out. Get them here .
- [Porcelain Boys](http://MNPunk.com/?p=92) - If you were real 7" EP I love the PB's and this record is probably their best effort. Not that their other stuff is bad in way, but this one is my favorite. It is also probably my favorite THD Records release. I do admit that I am somewhat biased, in that I've know the
- [Disembodied](http://MNPunk.com/?p=143) - Early 7"s and Broz Keep split If God Only Knew The Rest Were Dead (1996) Diablerie (1997) Heretic (1999) Here's another band I know nothing about. I was searching to see if anyone had posted the "No Slow...All Go!" compilation, when I came across this blog posting of just about everything Disembodied had released. Naturally,
- [Assrash](http://MNPunk.com/?p=136) - Up the Punx You have to love the name. Minneapolis crust band. Posted on the Blog of least resistance. Get it here :
- [Subversives](http://MNPunk.com/?p=132) - Tomorrow belongs to no one 12" EP (Vulture Rock 1996) Who would have ever thought the term "Minnesota" and "Oi!" would ever be used in the same sentence? Well the Subversives were a Minneapolis Oi! band featuring the one and only Ollie Stench on bass guitar. I don't know much about the rest of
- [Hüsker Dü](http://MNPunk.com/?p=65) - Live at the First Avenue, Minneapolis, MN (8/28/85) I found another blog posting, this time with a Hüsker's live show from 1985 at First Avenue. If you like this bootleg, check out the final Hüsker Dü album, "The Living End", which was a compilation of live tracks from the bands last tour. Who would have
- [The Suburbs](http://MNPunk.com/?p=69) - Love is the Law Found another blog posting. This one is from the "Lost bands of the new wave era" blog. It has a decent write-up of the Suburbs. I personally never cared for the Suburbs, but that doesn't mean that I don't recognize their place in the Minnesota punk scene. To me, a punk/hard
- [Libido Boyz](http://MNPunk.com/?p=77) - Hiding Away Probably my favorite band of the late 80's, the Libido Boys were at the top of this state's punk scene much like Dillinger Four are today. Every show was a big show, and everyone I knew had all their records the day they came out. Hiding Away was a disappointing record for me.
- [Swingin' Teens](http://MNPunk.com/?p=80) - Step Out And Meet Allah! EP / Transfixation LP Originally from Iowa, these guy relocated to the Twin Cities and put out a couple records on Susstones . You remember them. They played everywhere. I was never sure why nothing more came out of them. I really liked them, and they didn't seem to have
- [Threadbare](http://MNPunk.com/?p=86) - Threadbare - 1994 I was personally never into the heavy emo stuff, but Chad and I lived in the same house around this time and man could they shake the fucking walls when they practiced in the basement. The THD house was a 3 bedroom house with 5 guys living in it. A total shithole,
- [Suicide Commands](http://MNPunk.com/?p=119) - Complicated fun - Live at the MN State Fair 2007 Old punk don't die, they just play less frequently.
- [Magnolias](http://MNPunk.com/?p=117) - The Magnolias are one of my favorite "bar" bands to see. Locally under-rated on the punk scene probably because they are so popular at the bar shows. Always a good show no matter what. I've been catching their shows since before the first Twin/Tone record came out. An ever revolving lineup, with the one constant
- [Impetus Inter](http://MNPunk.com/?p=106) - Impetus Inter - Havana The Whole Music Club Minneapolis, MN 6/3/95 Watch it Here This is another band that used to shake the walls practicing at the THD House in Minneapolis. Mark lived there, and was in this band at the same time he was in Destroy!. Of course Erik was also in D4. Dave
- [Dillinger Four](http://MNPunk.com/?p=100) - Live Patrick Costello of Dillinger 4 LET THEM EAT THOMAS PAINE
- [The Soviettes](http://MNPunk.com/?p=98) - The Soviettes - "Multiply & Divide" The Soviettes - "Tonight"
- [Scooby Don't](http://MNPunk.com/?p=16) - Scooby Don't Better than the last This was their first and, as far as I know, only EP. They had a split with another band, and some compilation tracks, but I'm pretty sure this was the only record they put out themselves. This was Billy Morrisette's pre-Dillinger Four band, although this recording pre-dates his time
- [ Dirt Poor](http://MNPunk.com/?p=58) - Dirt Poor Uptown Bar & Grill, Minneapolis, MN Date Unknown Rocking the U-Haul out front of the Uptown Bar & Grill, in Minneapolis, MN. This was a Supersuckers & New Bomb Turks show inside the building. Outside the building it was pure chaos. This is one of those urban legends of Minneapolis Punk Rock. I've
- [Compilation Tape](http://MNPunk.com/?p=45) - Kitten Reflex C. The Kitten comp is one of the defining moments in the Minneapolis punk scene. A document of the punk and hard core bands that put Minnesota on the map. It has since been re-released on CD by Garage D'or Records . It probably sounds a whole lot better than this tape ever
- [Hüsker Dü](http://MNPunk.com/?p=8) - I thought I'd start the first post off with something that everyone would recognize. A few video clips of some obscure TV appearances. Hüsker Dü on Good Company April 1986 If you grew up around the Twin Cities, you remember Good Company as the late morning talk show hosted by Steve & Sharon Adelman Hüsker
