They are all at the forefront of the recent crop of Minimal Weird Punk.

Spider, Teeth, Spits and Blank Dawgs are good shit. Never heard of Black Orphan.
Sounds pretty fuckin' minimal, though.

Also who the fuck is CCCandy??

Pub Rock has that nebulous "before punk-punk rock" thing going on but also some twangy country type stuff tends to get lumped in.

Also the bastard Northern Soul offshoot Popcorn. Whats the deal?

What is the line of demarcation between synth and minimal synth?
What is the threshold for minimal?

Mike, I'll preempt your response by saying I'm not making fun of the genre here.

Also: Regular Rock vs. Rec Room Rock

beautiful music... bah.

How do you know if a band is good or not if you only make 3 public appearances a year???

it only takes me once, while it take syou a few times to scratch your head and check everyone elses reaction to make sure it's ok.

you might just be missing a few chromosomes.

like you didn't know.

is Bazooka being a party pooper?

it has to be a party first for me to poop on it! and if it was a party, i wouldn't.

Yes that is true. I get most of my musical cues from whoever is within arms reach.

you were buried deep under a thick layer of Bill Withers and Anita Baker 45's from the dollar bin if memory serves.

I'll be giving a lecture on the differences between hard psych, heavy psych, heavy rock and all it's bastard offshoots followed by a few musical examples of each.

Also I will be doing this:

Just got home and found a hotspot to steal WiFi.

What about fucking WILDFIRE?!?!?! Some pretty heavy jams on that one. That bass shit on the last track is like over the edge.

ZIPPER...another good one.

And Stonewall fucking slays, Head Over Heels is pretty good too minus the Lil Red Rooster cover for the last 7 minutes of side A.

Morgen is pretty fuzzy but not nearly as hard as Vincebus Eruptum in my humble opinion. Awesome nonetheless.

My profile picture might be making fun of people but my love of heavy rock - be it psychedelic, progressive or otherwise - is straight from the heart.

Mike,

I'm not trying to make fun of people.
You know the heavy shit is sacred to me. Seriously dude. You know this.
I smoked some hash and listened to Toad and that shit seriously rocked my world.

But what is the yardstick by which an album is judged as Heavy Psych. It wouldn;t be outta place to play Maypole or Liquid Smoke between George Brigman or Dark or Horse in a DJ set.

And the cover if Sabotage is pretty psychedelic in its own way. Way far out.

also the Vallejo sleeve is superior although I do dig the knights Templar vibe of the first Dust record.

And yeah, BODKIN. Fucking RAGER!!!!
