total fucking destruction - compact disc version 1.0

released: 2004
label: bones brigade

do you remember the band brutal truth?
do you remember the direction they went into after their NEED TO CONTROL album?
this is exaclty like that.
and speaking of brutal truth: the band's second drummer (richard hoak aka the man of many faces behind the kit) does what he does here as well as provides some vocals.
i'm really really hoping that you nodded your head in a "yeah! i totally do!" manner after my asking those questions.
and if you didn't....
well....
i'm not going to hold that against you as i'm practicing the art of patience.
and guess what....
this band has an album called ZEN AND THE ART OF TOTAL FUCKING DESTRUCTION which you should really check out as well.
and then check out brutal truth's KILL TREND SUICIDE ep.
that's what they'd released after the above mentioned album.
and then check out everything else brutal truth released.
even the albums released after SOUNDS OF THE ANIMAL KINGDOM.
truth be told that's kind of where i lost interest in them.

"but what about this band? we're not talking about brutal truth,bro. come on,grampa."

this album is mostly made up of demos and a show they played in philadelphia.
and if'n you're interested in covers there are 2 of them here.
they cover "yes ma'am" by d.r.i. and "jesus!" by feederz.

listen.
you're either going to check this out or you're not going to check this out.
but if you don't: that's on you.
you know that kid that lives down the street from you?
the one that eats spaghetti while taking a bath?
he digs this band.
are you going to let a kid that eats spaghetti while taking a bath be better than you?
yeah yeah yeah.
you're all talk,kid.
get offa my lawn or i'm gonna let the squirrels loose on ya.
