Listening to fIREHOSE for the first time in a million years. I got a bit fed up with their albums somewhere along the way, but Ragin' Full On is so good. Obviously they were always going to be underpowered in comparison to D Boon's stun guitar attack, but there's so many moments where everything meshes so beautifully that, in the context of this record at least, I couldn't really give a hoot.

You Don't Know Mojack - Two Canadian punkers leisurely dissecting every SST release chronologically with the occasional interview along the way, good fun.

important news from that account — we can buy the Ginn family house in Hermosa Beach for a cool $1.4 million

Amazing, it's not how I pictured it at all, I wonder if that structure at the back is where Rollins lived.

Just got email saying that Wienerworld are rereleasing a bunch of prime SST stuff (Husker Du, Flag, Brains) on vinyl. Weird. Pretty sure that the bands involved won't see any money from this...

...from what I hear, certain SST bands had the same issue even when Ginn was releasing the records! (/snark)
