By now you know of my love for the pummeling San Francisco band Burmese, so here's their very hard to find debut Burmese Is Dead. You get a number of snarkily titled Burmese originals and a few covers of material by D.R.I. and The Misfits, showing this band's well documented reverence for the ol' '80s hardcore.
How much more Burmese is there??????
ReplyDeleteThanks for this it's the only burmese i didn't already have!
ReplyDeleteLeaving today to drive from New York to Florida to Cali I'll make sure to listen to this when i hit unholy traffic in DC.
I like to get ripped, sit right in front of the speakers, and blast this is at eleven. So much bass it makes my taint tingle. So in that sense, I have had intimate affairs with this album. Just don't tell my girl.
ReplyDeleteDamn, I was all hyped ... then ... the only Burmese I don't physically own (well aside from the new 10" pic disc) ... but this is the same as the mp3 file I've had for ages ... alphebetical order ... not numbered ... it drives my obsessive tune nature round the fuckin' bend!! Any idea on the actual running order of these songs Aesop? Would be a huge help ... thanx in advance ...
ReplyDeleteAlso amazing place here man ... been hittin it for awhile now ... other than LLN stuff haven't really downed anything ... or made a comment ... but I'm a fuckwit ... so ya know ... anyhow most interesting blog out there man ... always shit I've never heard of ... a true original ... kudos!

Hope to see some people there, and if you're in the area, definitely try to make it out, should be a great show. Thanks for this, Aesop!
ReplyDeleteI love this kind of music. Thanks so much for sharing.
ReplyDeletegreat band!Aesop,have you ever seen them live?i've read some great stories about their shows.
ReplyDeleteI have seen them. My band Ludicra once played with them. Nothing really insane, they played their songs. They were great.
