"The State..." is a stone-cold jam!

Yeah the first one is classic, my favorite piece of vinyl. I didn't like the second one as much and stopped paying attention. At this point in my life I was probably buying cds a lot more than vinyl but for some reason bought Talker on vinyl and Im so glad I did. I think I played it last week. Great fucking record. Really need to get Shorty Fresh Breath on vinyl next. On a related note, another fav from that time is Tar, I bought 2 of their albums and a 7" off of ebay yesterday. Really love the music from that time period. Hard to find stuff like that these days. If you guys have any leads to new bands that capture that kind of sound please share. I am finding myself searching for that old stuff but would like the new stuff too.

speaking of SHorty related vinyl, i was glad i grabbed the Thumb Days reissue that got put out in 2012 (w/ different artwork). i was going to link to it, but it appears to be sold out.

i have some Tar vinyl. let me know if you're looking for something specific (by them, or whoever), and we can probably work something out. i was way into these types of bands at the time they were active & i bought all of their records.

current bands doing that sort of thing:

...i'll add more as i think of them...

Shorty rules so hard. I got the Kaput single when it came out a million years ago. Big'n is another fav from that era.

This is awesome and it definitely captures that Jesus Lizard insanity. I'll be checking out more after work.

Cool links. There's a new band here in LA called Hepatitus with Kevin the bass player from the Cows. Haven't seen them yet, though.

I think the last Tar record I really want is Roundhouse. I just bought their 1st EP (I had bought this over 20 years ago but sold it years ago) and Toast, and a Sub Pop single from Ebay.

I have that Kaput single, as well!

Great Minneapolis band called Disasteratti doing similar stuff to Tar as well: https://disasteratti.bandcamp.com/album ... ack-artist
