Band: Hammerhead

[Gardy]

even their feedback alone would be not crap

[Gabry]

I love that band and I love Vaz. It always puzzles me why they weren't / aren't bigger, on an underground level of course. Great rockdudes, great songs / sounds.

[Bill Swansea]

Not crap. Into the Vortex is as close as they got to a classic.

Also the bass on "Meandrethal" - flippin' 'eck!!

[mmmribsmmm]

Agreed!

[Luzwei]

into the vortex is one of my fav 90' records...

[WoundedFoot]

This band is a good band.

Not Crap.

[Wood Goblin]

I've been listening to Into the Vortex, which someone posted on the sendspace thread years ago, quite a bit these last couple of days. Not crap!

[lewdjaw]

Not crap. They mixed being humorous and punishing very well. A bunch of geeks from the middle of nowhere riding gloriously off to noise valhalla.

Minor, minor waffle. The lyrics all should've been cryptic, personal -- the stabs at politics made me wince a little bit, before I started rocking the fuck out again.

"I kicked Sebastian ... right between the legs!"

Saw them last night. Decidedly not crap, and still completely relevant.

This I like to hear.

I'm coming up for the amrep 25 show and I'm hoping to hear some stuff off Ethereal Killer. I love everything they put out, but EK is such a classic to me. Did they play a little bit of everything when you saw them?

They are mostly playing stuff from Into the Vortex and on, not to bum you out but when I saw them they mostly avoided Ethereal Killer, much to my regret, though they were probably better live then I remember them being.

I'm just happy to get to see them, even if I don't get to hear Tuffskins. I read somewhere they may have some CD-R's of new material available at the show.

[mmmribsmmm]

Anyone in LA going to the post retardist amrep bash?? Please grab one of these for me....unless they're 50 bucks or something stoopid.

[Bill Swansea]

Does that have new material? Is that even a record?

It's a Melvins split w Hammerhead. I don't know if the Melvins side is unreleased, but the Hammerhead side is. Apparently it's only for sale at this post retardist bash thing in LA and a NYC show.

After having some Vaz on the office computer for a while, I finally managed to remember to bring in some Hammerhead.

I was listening to it on Thursday, and more than one student asked me how I could manage to stay cheerful whilst listening to such angry music.

I never thought of Hammerhead (or much of what I listen to at work) as "angry."

I've never thought of Hammerhead as "angry" either. Have your students ever listened to Damaged? That's sort of what I think of as angry music.

My students range in age from 18 to 21 and are mostly disinterested girls from Long Island.
