Nobody did Birthday Party-era Nick Cave better than David Yow.

Scratch Acid is awesome. "Greatest Gift" never leaves my head.

I like that one Jesus Lizard album, but I rarely listen to it.

Yeah i posted a topic about this same thing a little while back. Scratch acid's greatest gift cd is a must, compiles all of their songs. I can't decide who I like better between Jesus Lizard and Scratch Acid. Was just watching some live Jesus lizard the other night, some incredible stuff. I think Goat and Liar are their best albums.

Wow, that bump got a pretty good result.

I remember something on Beavis and Butthead about the Jesus Lizard. To the effect of "they're not really trying at all, but it kicks ass." :lol:

Check out David yow and helmet on the encomium led zeppelin tribute. best track on there.

The Jesus Lizard is good and all, but really guys, Scratch Acid blows 'em away.

I just listened to Goat today and it is very very good

This is probably one of top 10 fav bands of all time already

I'm listening to Blue. Which is a little mixed. Some fucking amazing tracks, and some I just totally tune out to. Still gotta digest it tho for sure.

And yeah I won't act like I'm beyond Goat, it is really wonderful.

I got a live scratch acid cd a little while back but it gotten lost and yow is so drunk and insane on it. I do have a jesus lizard/scratch acid/ short film on video still though. I wish I coulda seen them when they were still together bands never come out anymore that are as exciting.

I've only heard that song "Puss" that they released with Nirvana on the A-side. It's really good though.

Dev · **Posted:** Tue Jan 20, 2009 7:56 am

like yeah people think that post albini sucks, but I can tell you that Blue is a better record than Down for example

Mrmattsitwrame · **Posted:** Tue Jan 20, 2009 7:54 pm

I think Shot is one of the best albums ever. Especially the first four songs. Such an extremely tight band.

Mrmattsitwrame · **Posted:** Tue Jan 20, 2009 8:00 pm

I have all their albums except for Blue. And I need to get another copy of Shot. I have actually not really heard anything off Blue. I have yet to listen to Quie yet either.
