Fear Won't Eat My Soul Because I Don't Have One


The couple-three Tight Bros singles that I own have always struck me as being pretty great, but I also've got two of their albs which I've never had the patience to listen to all the way through. I dunno, they just never struck me like the singles did, for some reason. Although I'm listening to "Runnin' Thru My Bones" now, and this one track that I ripped from "Lend You a Hand", and shit's sounding pretty alright. Pretty fuckin' keen now, hoss. Maybe I've changed my mind about this whole Tight Bros thing. But not enough to make me go back and rip any more songs from this album, besides this one that I already ripped about 5 years ago. Does that make me lame? Probably, yeah.

Usually a picture of the record goes here, but fuckit, you probably
wouldn't even have noticed if I hadn't pointed it out

Do You Know Where The Gas Is, Baby

If you're like me, you might've bought this record way back when only because it had The Champs on it, not knowing anything about the grimy balls-out mess that is the Tight Bros From Way Back When (are some Karp/Behead The Prophet guys). Tight Bros' Jared Warren gets compared most often to Bon Scott, I guess, but I think he sounds more on this 7" like Paul Stanley, or, more to the point, John Stabb's impersonation of Paul Stanley with J.S. and The Cupids. Even better, the Fucking Champs song on the flip side is a dead ringer for Thin Lizzy, but whatever-- if you like RAWK at all you should be digging it, despite the somewhat crunchy vinyl that this was pressed on.
