Hello,

I just checked out your site and man I have to say, rock out! I have only one complaint though, you need a free hooker give away.

Herbert

Amazing! Your e-mail address is exactly the same as my friend’s e-mail address. But surely he wouldn’t be so lame and bored as to send me a stupid e-mail, would he? And hey, I live in the Mission now – “free hooker giveaway” is my middle name. In fact, there’s a hot, young, tight piece of ass that lives in the alley behind my garage. His name’s Jimmy “The Hammer” (go to county jail for details on his nickname) and he offers discount summer rates. Don’t thank me – I live to serve.



Ed,

Are you sure you got it right about the Rubber City Rebels? You could always have someone else review it. It seems odd that the critics below are so off base.

Thanks

Rod Firestone. [Note: Rod is the vocalist/guitarist for the Rubber City Rebels]

"this is the most important punk release of this year" – Americore Magazine

"The Rebels ... show us how it's done." – Amplifier Magazine

"...everything a punk record should be" – San Diego Punk

"...one of the best punk albums I've heard in a while." – Utter Trash

"...how it is so many other 'punk' bands can get it so wrong" – The Plague

"this band is doing everything RIGHT." – Babysue

"Hard, fast 'screw me to the floor' music!" – Waste NY

Well Rod, I must admit, I’m a bit embarrassed. I can’t believe I actually PUBLISHED the wrong answer in my review! Okay everyone, go back to the Rubber City Rebels CD review, scribble your screen out with a sharpie and write this new AND 100% CORRECT review in its place:

“The Rubber City Rebels’
Pierce My Brain is THE most important punk release of the year. The Rebels really show us how it’s done. Not only is it everything a punk record should be, but it’s one of the best punk albums I’ve heard in a while. How is it so many other “punk” bands can get it so wrong? I mean, come on! This band is doing everything RIGHT. It’s hard, fast “screw me to the floor” music!”

Thanks for the hint, Rod. I actually had been screwed to the floor when listening to your album, but I forgot to include it in the review. You can’t see it right now, but my face is totally red. You: 1, Me: 0.




Eric, thanks for the crappy review! It turns out as time goes by those are the ones i keep and show to people years later. Plus, you get BIG BIG edgamacation points for misspelling our name, which as I recall, is the ultimate fuckup from a writer who shares their opinions with the punters. I only wish you were there when punkrock was developing, so you could have misspelled "The Lewd" too. Hell, I'll send ya a Lewd record if you'll promise to print that we cover that Turbonegro song "Mobile Home".

Well done, I think I'll poke around to read more of your stuff, laughing does make a fella feel better.

Where is the misspelling? There are usually two types of errors: Those due to lack of thorough knowledge on the subject, and those due to accidentally hitting the wrong keys on the keyboard, and I assure you that any errors that you find on my end are due to the latter, and the latter only. Sorry you’re not happy that I’m apparently the only person on the planet who didn’t like your album, but it certainly doesn’t make me wrong.

And I’d love a copy of The Lewd. Hell, I’ll even review it if you’ll promise that it doesn’t completely eat ass. Seriously, whether or not you completely hate me, thanks for stopping by, and hopefully you’ll stumble across something on the site that doesn’t make you want to slaughter me.

P.S. You spelled my name wrong.
