They've never gotten their due. Life Time, Weight, and End of Silence are all classics in my book, and most of their other stuff is almost as good. :thumbsup:

Not my kind of music. I prefer it when Hank does spoken word. Interesting that the Big Day Out bookers got him to replace AFI after they cancelled, not to play music, but to do spoken word. Hard to imagine how that would go with 40000 punters there for the music.

Whoa, spoken word for 40,000 people!? I can't imagine that going over well. I can see a few thousand people really digging it, but the rest will probably be crushing beer cans on their heads until the music starts again.

I threw "Weight" on last night, oh man, that's one amazing record. Still sounds incredible.

I can't even count the amount of times I've seen both the Rollins Band and Hank doing spoken word. The first time was 1991 at the Old Lion Pub in North Adelaide on the End of Silence tour. It was fucking amazing. Lifetime is my fave Rollins Band album. Savagely aggressive, almost scary. Genius.
