Chuck Biscuits - R.I.P.



1965 - 2009. Chuck Biscuits (Charles Montgomery), drummer in Black Flag, Circle Jerks, Samhain, Danzig, D.O.A., Fear, Weirdos, Subhumans, Social Distortion, Run DMC, and on and on and on, died of throat cancer on 10.24.09.


I'm not one for tributes or whatever, but this motherfucker was an animal, and easily will go down as one of the top five drummers in all of punk/hardcore. He slayed everything, all the time. Big ups.


So, there you go, a little bad news to darken your day. Sorry, but you needed to know.

    Aww, fuck. I did not know this. He was one of the best - I'll post that '82 Black Flag demo tonight - the one with the 'My War' and "Slip It In' material played with twin guitars and at light speed courtesy Chuck Biscuits. That first Danzig LP is the shit, too.

    I think this hoax was perpetrated by the makers of Count Chocula/Frankenberry/Boo Berry family of cereals to boost sales.
