AMONG THE THUGS

 

1994 East Bay punk that sounds like...well, it sounds like East Bay punk from 1994. It sounds like sweaty shows - shows that were sparsely attended, but intense and transformative for the people who were there. It sounds like JAWBREAKER were the unspoken influence on even the bands who claimed they didn't like JAWBREAKER. It sounds like 924 Gilman Street on a Saturday when you didn't even know who was playing and you just went because....because that's what you did, and that's where you went. It sounds like the band that you bonded with in Columbus or Pueblo while you were traveling East and they were traveling West (or vice versa), the band who you still consider friends today. At least that's what it sounds like to me.
