Dirt. That’s pretty much what this is. Black and White is a collection of every song recorded by this early-`80s British crust band. There isn’t really much great about this band. Basically, I had to send $9.00 to Profane Existence for two CDs of really, really, really bad Crass with a screechy female singer. The first disc starts out sounding just like Crass, minus the musical talent of Penny Rimbaud and Pete Wright. Dirt also has a “slogan,” revealed on the track “Democracy.” Rather than the insightful and memorable Crass slogan, “Fight War, Not Wars,” Dirt has “Object Refuse Reject Abuse,” which makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

don't listen to this moron.. Capitalist Casualties are really good. Power to the violence! "Eh, well you know... Punknews has its valuable minds, but the general population... Well, let's just say that's one gene pool you wouldn't wanna dive head first into. "I guess this means I'm part of the rampant homophobic jokes that have gripped the site as of late. I like I belong now." Your right. I'd much rather make a baby with stevejones then crooky. I hear his name is a hint towards his true nature in the pants. Eh, well you know... Punknews has its valuable minds, but the general population... Well, let's just say that's one gene pool you wouldn't wanna dive head first into. People sure are giving you more shit than usual will. Did you piss in someones cereal or something? Well, no, it just seems that the reviewer fucked up his facts a few weeks ago and I combined that with my opinion to come to the conclusion that he's not really correct when he says Dirt is a 3rd rate Crass. God forbid someone have a different opinion than Will.... This is true. I always just assumed these albums had already been reviewed...I mean they are staples of the genre. Seems kind of ridiculous not to have something archived on em. hey at least its not another radioheadidolator review. theres no place for any "i thought this was punknews.org"comments.. Feeeding5000 is to crust punk as Crazy Toledo is to nu-metal. Meh, Capitalist Casualties own this kind of stuff, anyway. The bastards! What are they playing at? I don't like the music, don't like the words, don't like the senitments, well keep it for the birds and bees, boys. I can't find any Aus Rotten records, so I can't bash them. I heard 1 track, and the singer sounded Rollins-ish, so that's a plus. In all seriousness, I think Will is the coolest guy ever. I think my biggest problem with this record is that Deno's vocals just really piss me off. Maybe if the singer was Eve Libertine or Exene Cervenka... Hmm, I think the reviewer's mention of Nausea is much more applicable to Dirt than Crass is. Both Nausea and Dirt have more traditional song structure than Crass, and both offer almost exclusively throaty female vocals, unlike Crass. If this guy bashes on Aus Rotten, we'ze gonna have some words... Harsh. I dig her voice a lot. That girl's voice is endlessly entertaining though! I love the tracks "Hiroshima" and "Little Wooden Gun." I can't really remember how the rest of them go but this still deserves way more than one star, especially given the grading curve on this site. This band had more to say then most of the crap on here day in day out. isn't most dirt brown? Or is that just an US thing? "Dirt has “Object Refuse Reject Abuse,” which makes absolutely no sense whatsoever." Sooooooooo. I knew alot of kids when I was in highschool that were into this band. I always wondered what the hell that logo thing was. Is it like a demon cat or something? Am I just stupid and not seeing something obvious there? Uh... You obviously don't know what you're talking about that and you've shown that from the start when you credited Crass with "interesting chord progressions." Those were incidental! |
