Hi Dinos, Psychedelic Moods, Part 2 came out on CD (on Collectables) in 1993, with 8 bonus tracks (none by the Chuijuas). I imagine copies can still be ordered. The liner notes don't have much to say, other than that the band was from Ciudad Juarez in the state of Chihuahua, and the tracks come from a 1968 demo-only album. I don't think there are any other comp appearances by this band.

I just picked up the latest issue of MAGNET, the "Year In Music" issue, and they had an article on the Oblivians. The last two paragraphs of the article hit just a little too close to home for me... "But not everyone has been seduced by the Oblivians' brand of soulful sleaze. 'If the kids don't hate it, it ain't rock'n'roll,' says Eric [one of the three members], echoing the motto of his Goner label. 'It gets truer every day.' "It's safe to say the Oblivians don't have much of a constituency among the wide-legged citizens of the Big Pants Nation, because they are real rock'n'roll. As a result, all-ages shows rarely appear on the tour itinerary. 'We have a hard time not drinking,' says Eric. 'That, and we don't know any ska songs.'" (written for MAGNET by Jonathan Valania, who BTW is also the leader of the Psyclone Rangers) Am I the only one who finds the statement a little disturbing, especially since I agree with it? You know times are changing when someone makes a statement like "If the kids don't hate it, it ain't rock'n'roll." And you also know times are changing when you find yourself agreeing with that statement. I must say, not only do I find the oversize pants repulsive, but I can't say I care for a lot of the music today's kids are into. Especially as far as punk rock is concerned. I hate NOFX and Pennywise, and that's the so-called "punk rock" of choice among today's teenagers. I'm not sure what's worse - A) the notion that today's kids just have punk rock totally wrong and seem to prefer shit music over the real thing, which happens to be my own opinion, or B) the equally disturbing possibility that, at the age of 28, I'm simply turning into an old fart who is completely out of touch with the current trends and what today's kids are into and that it's ME who doesn't know shit about punk rock today.

That's right. Someone else can correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is that Infinite Zero is a joint venture between Henry Rollins and American label head Rick Rubin. At the moment, American Recordings is in a very shaky position - they've been in financial trouble for quite some time, and they've either dropped or lost a lot of their roster; until recently they were the US distributor for UK indie Too Pure. Latest word has it that American is parting ways with Warner and Rubin is moving his label to Sony. > If so, I'm gonna have to look at the M section next time I'm at the store. > This should be pretty well distributed. Maybe, or maybe not, for the reasons I gave above. If you do find the Monks CD, get it, because it's a pretty cool record. It does take a while to grow on you, though. I think the best way to appreciate the record is to understand the context it came out in - it may seem a bit hokey to people today, but as I understand it, by the standards of the time it was just outright confrontational. And it's hard not to get taken in by the record's general weirdness. I mean, c'mon, how can you not like songs like "Drunken Maria" or "Boys Are Boys And Girls Are Choice"? - - John Lee ==================================================================== To unsubscribe from Bomp, send an e-mail to majordomo@bolis.com with "unsubscribe bomp" in the message body.

I'm with John on this one, though I'm more bemused than disturbed by the fact that, somehow, every generation seems to find something that pisses off the one that came before. One could easily go back through the years and replace "oversize pants" with "dyed hair," "ripped jeans," "platform shoes," "long hair," etc. >what's worse - A) the notion that today's kids just have punk rock totally >wrong and seem to prefer shit music over the real thing, which happens to >be my own opinion, or B) the equally disturbing possibility that, at the >age of 28, I'm simply turning into an old fart who is completely out of >touch with the current trends and what today's kids are into and that it's >ME who doesn't know shit about punk rock today. I hate to say it, but I think A is an outgrowth of B. But you're narrowing the field too much by suggesting that because you're not into the music today's kids are into, you don't know about punk rock today. You might also take solace in the fact that you're most likely completely out of touch with what today's grown-ups are into.

You might also take solace in the fact that you're most likely completely out of touch with what today's grown-ups are into. ... Hey, I qualify as an adult and I resemble that implication, I think. I mean, who expects adults to be tracking down CDs by the Hate Bombs and the Untamed Youth and so on. I don't begin to understand how musical tastes are formed. I've always felt "Kids gotta have their own music" so I've tried to let my kids have theirs. Guess what, my teenage son listens to Hendrix and Santana. Go figure. I don't care much for today's punk either. What really worries me is that, in attempting to find music which pisses off earlier generations (Evan's statement) we get...Marilyn Manson. Yikes, is this guy's act pathetic or what? 7 years older than Evan Bob Pisciotta ==================================================================== To unsubscribe from Bomp, send an e-mail to majordomo@bolis.com with "unsubscribe bomp" in the message body.

I've been thinking about this for a while, and the recent Johnny Kidd thread reminded me... Well, the question is basically; can anyone think of anything worthwhile to come out of 'this green and pleasant land' in terms of rock and roll prior to the Beatles? I mean, it's taken as fact Britain was a cultural oasis until 1963, but there must have been something, right? I have compiled my own extensive list of pre-lennon/mccartney British r'n'r, and it goes something like this: Johnny Kidd and the Pirates Screaming Lord Sutch and the Savages Hrmmm...Anything to add? 2.) As I understand it, around the time of the Beatles there was a Liverpool based r'n'r band name of Rory Storm and the Hurricanes for which Ringo origanall played drums. Ringo was a flash dude, the band were flash dudes, and supposedly better than the Beatles (although I can't remember by what term of reference). Anyhow, incorrectly tipped to be the next big thing, they ended up pretty obscure - remembered only by people who read Record Collector and breath thru' their mouths. Anyone know what happened to them? Any of their stuff been re-released worth picking up?

Bong Ritual -- Rump Shakin' Floozy (audience tape, Turf Club, St. Paul; 8/7/97) Forced by nonavailability of formal "product" to play an audience DAT I made of these boys last summer, I watched with amusement as the host of the local music show preceding ours pawed frantically through our CDs, exclaiming "how come I didn't get this!?!" The man was STOKED. Okay, their name doesn't fall out of the standard surf/instro rulebook, but this powerhouse Minneapolis instro trio just flat out FLIES. An occasional cover (Satan's Pilgrims' "Haunted House" and Billy Childish's "Lie Detector") find their way into the sets, but this band's output is far and away original. We love these guys, who will -- fairly soon -- have a 7-inch out featuring "Moondisks" and "Sex On The Wagon Train." SPLISH SPLASH, I WAS TAKIN' A BATH... THE WET SOUND SET Space Cossacks -- Red Sunrise (Space Cossacks/Fathoms split 7-inch EP, MuSick) Los Mel-tones -- Break Point (Surfin' At Black Point, Halakahiki) Fathoms -- Fathomized (Space Cossacks/Fathoms split 7-inch EP, MuSick) Untamed Youth -- The Hearse (Untamed Melodies, Norton) THE _R_ WORD SET Ray Harris -- Come On Little Mama (The Sun Box, Charly) Johnny Burnette -- You're Undecided (...And The Rock'n'Roll Trio, Official) Charlie Feathers -- One Hand Loose (I forget...)
