Blindspot

From 1988 until 1997 Assuck were one of the greatest Grindcore bands on earth. Every fucking bit as important as Napalm Death or Terrorizer. Not an opinion but a fact. Deal with it, buddy.

cdg said...: I was also at that Seattle show (at the Goat House). Easily one of the best shows of the 90s. I saw Cap Casualties and Assuck (with the Misery Index lineup) both a couple of other times after that, but they never were as good as that show.; July 15, 2011 at 9:32 AM
Anicon said...: I missed them on their last tour in 98 and have lived in regret ever since.; July 15, 2011 at 10:32 AM

Jesse Carter said...: me, 1997/98, 16 years old, smoking massive amounts of shitty weed, playing Zelda II, and playing Assuck over and over and over again. I don't know if I like them more than ND, but hoenstly, I reach for their recs a helluva lot more.; July 16, 2011 at 6:10 AM
Media Tree said...: i fucking love this record! i've been wearing out this 7" on a regular basis for the last 13 years!

Anonymous said...: You could also say ass suck.

Last tour was 1998? Hmm they must have played Minneapolis, but that year The Bombshelter had closed down (due to the riots).; July 16, 2011 at 11:08 AM

BenMech said...: Been meaning to try this band's wares. This seems like a nice place to begin.

Cheers Aesop!; July 17, 2011 at 2:31 PM
BUZZARDSTEIN said...: saw these guys with Man Is The Bastard play one of the most amazing shows ever in a gutted trailer in the middle of a Bilouxi MS trailer park. The venue was called the Little House and I saw Hickey there once as well. Remember the place Aes?

At that time (had to been 95-96) Assuck was my favorite band and they completely destroyed. I was 15 or 16 years old and I felt so punk and negative. I still do.

to this day I wear an Assuck shirt at least once a week. No regrets.; July 21, 2011 at 2:15 PM

What it's about.

It's about sharing hard to find and special recordings. It's not about taking anything away from the artists themselves. Of course if something is in print and you like it, buy it. If you have legitimate claim to something posted here and want it removed, just write me and I'll do so. It's definitely not about furthering any sort of political agenda, you might find some things here that you don't agree with. The views of the bands are their own and don't necessarily reflect my ideology or political views. Of course comments and suggestions are welcomed, but don't be hurt if they aren't responded to or taken. I will do my absolute best to be accomidating. Want to contact me? Do it here:

please put "cosmic hearse" in the subject heading.The main thing to remember is to enjoy the music and share the site with friends. Thanks for riding in the Cosmic Hearse.---Aesop
