Wailing tunes! Not the subtlety of Black & Decker, but, it's still Heavy Metal, baby.

Critics called it "abrasive and sparked with grit and heat."

but they smoothed out with their melodious harmonic overtones. Recordings just couldn't do justice to the close up experience.

it too safe, it just didn't have that edge the first platter did. It was just too AM.

"Shatter" the third was the break out single from the third album, "Too Close to the Edge", "Too Much RPM" was an 'Industrial Drone' album much loved by House Music aficionados.

They went back to the basics with "Fuck the Suits, This is Production" with cuts like "Laid Off Again" and "Where's the Shop Steward" or "Dammit There's Grit in My Eye".

4-20 experience today but I don't know if I want to tell it. It was a cool thing, though.

some schwag from last year I got burnt on and I've been canning just in case I can get it to potentiate a bit past "head-ache" to mildly buzzed.

Its all I can do to keep from running to Colorado: I got a bunch of that sweet, sweet gubmint stimulous cash just begging to help American farmers through this mess and there's cheap gas to boot.

But no, I'll choke on this weak tea for a month and maybe then.

I have just this minute finished packing the fruits of my labour into jars to cure, so winter lockdown is going to go quickly...or slowly, depending how you look at it.

(It's actually 4/21 here.)
