Ten years later, thinking about the bands from Olympia in the 2010s kinda blows my mind. It's not just the sheer quantity (there were a lot of notable outfits), but the quality (there were a lot of notably good outfits). Maybe SEX VID planted a seed or some shit, or maybe punks from Olympia have just been drinking from the same mysterious fountain for generations. Last week it was ESCØRT, and today we get a visit CRUDE THOUGHT's first demo released in 2011. Fuzzed out bass and guitar that come together like a soft poo smooshing through a window screen, an awkward stilted pace and vocals that...well, CRUDE THOUGHT mean it, you know? CRUDE THOUGHT sounds fukkn real and you can feel it, you know? At the end of the day I don't really care where they were from (the Olympia thing is still impressive, of course), because CRUDE THOUGHT exist now, in a time and a place where you need them to. I'm gonna listen to "Luxury" a lot of times today, and I recommend that you do the same.
