speed

speed were bruce "bruce bruce" dickinson's band before samson and well before iron maiden. their sound is pretty garage-metal with what sounds like a pink fairies and 1960s influence to the fore. the organ - particularly on "man in the street" - is straight out of "nuggets." all of the info i could find is here, but who needs info when you got rock? (excuse, please, the rough sound quality and confusingly labeled mp3s.)

side a - man in the street
side b - down the road

venom "senile decay"

i'm not sure where exactly this song originates from, though i know it was compiled on from hell to the unknown (but not the 'expanded' version from heaven to the unknown). all i know is it's one of the more obnoxious venom songs i can think of, approaching master/repulsion territory with relentless thud.

btw, i got this mp3 on soulseek. which somehow smacks of mp3 blog poseurdom.

venom - senile decay

sorry for the week off, things have been weird. i'm thinking of going with a theme for the next post: CRUDITY.
