11. Screaming Blue Messiahs – Gun-Shy
Wall of sound punk blues, a torrid fever dream about assassination, serial killers and creepy invitations to play in the woods.

"White Girl" the single from X's Wild Gift (1981) never made the Hot 100, but Rolling Stone named it number two song of the year, and people always sang along to it at shows.
Last time I saw X was at Buck Owens' Crystal Palace 👢

Album Review: It’s all ‘In The Manifesto’ – Sacred Cowboys unveil a collection of attitude-laden gems that burn brightly. Sacred Cowboys have been – and still are – a legendary bunch of misfits together in various forms since 1982, but always with Garry Gray as a mainstay at the reins along with Mark Ferrie. They essentially began in 1982 as a supergroup with Gray from seminal new wave outfit Negatives and Ferrie from the Models. Purloining the band name from Get Smart and the Groovy Guru, the Cowboys left the Countdown set with guru Molly Meldrum announcing that they were … the worst band I’ve seen in 5 years…

The Gun Club, Jeffrey Lee Pierce: exil, identita a anarchie Jeffrey Lee Pierce byl motor i problém Gun Club. Chaos, závislosti, Fire of Love, Miami, Las Vegas Story a hlas, který zněl nahlas.

#JeffreyLeePierce a #TheGunClub odmítli LA punkovou ortodoxii i bezpečný návrat ke kořenům. Mapujeme napjaté vztahy uvnitř kapely i Pierceův celoživotní exil – fyzický, hudební i vnitřní.
Poprvé jsem je slyšel u Johna Kelwaye na českém vysílání BBC.

A game you've already lost
