ASSÜCK - BLINDSPOT 7"




This is one of the first grindcore records I ever bought. I have yet to hear better. It was recommended to me by Judy from Fast Forward in Providence RI. I think she was dating Ben from Dropdead at the time and he also worked at FF. They both turned me on to powervoilence and tons of other stuff. I remember being uncertain what speed to play it at. I eventually decided that it sounded best on 33rpm. Ha! It's actually 45. The only time I caught them live was with Rorschach, Merel and Dropdead at AS220. Needless to say, it was awesome. Anyway, get ready to watch all your glamgrind/boy bands with their ridiculous swine vocals fall by the way side. Suck ass!

Fast Forward is long gone, but Ben currently co-ownes a store called Armageddon Shop. They have an amazing selection and they're great folks to deal with.
