Free Music Notes for Just an American Band
Free Music Review: essential hardcore punk
Hit: 5 Stars
Dude, what's up with people writing bad reviews about the sound quality and the songs not being as good as when Slayer covered them? First off, the recording quality is great and remastering was done well. Its punk rock, it wasn't recorded for a bunch of money by music biz types. Second, this is early 80s punk. Slayer covered half the album has a tribute to that genre cuz without their punk influenced they'd be abunch of cornballs with guyliner pretending to worsphip Satan. Just listen to everything before Reign In Blood! That aside, Verbal Abuse was a punk band from Texas featuring the old vocalist of Sick Pleasure. They played thrashy and sounded a lot like Sick Pleasure. Like MDC and DRI they played extremely fast and with a slight metal influence. Also like MDC and DRI they moved to San Fransico to record their album and stay at the Vats (an infamous house that some cool bands practiced at). They began playing crossover thrash before a lot of punk rockers were cool with heavy metal. Eventually that sound caught on and dominates hardcore punk to this day. This is their only good album, the other ones only really share the band name. If you like Circle Jerks, JFA, Minor Threat, Bad Brains, DRI, and stuff like that you'll definetly like this. I love hardcore punk and this is one of the essential albums of that genre. The other half of the cd is a live concert of them opening up for the Ramones, which is great cuz it shows some of their great material that was never put in the studio. Verbal Abuse rules!!! Although, I like Slayer I wouldn't recomend this to most Slayer fans. Its not metal. Metal blows. This isn't polished studio crap with extended solos. Its raw and juveniele. Just remember, no punk rock means no Reign In Blood.
Just an American Band Poster
Perhaps you remember these guys from the early 80's. Or you may remember them from Slayers' punk cover full length in which they covered five Verbal Abuse songs. Either way this was the first full length done by Verbal Abuse. Its a total hardcore master piece right from the early 80's. Speed, anger frustration and rage all made this full length what it is.After many years of this being out of print Beer City has once again made it available to the masses. Not only does this CD contain the original 'Just an American band ' full length but it also contains a set live from a show that they opened for The Ramones! In this live set are a few songs that have never before been recorded by Verbal Abuse. Not to forget all the power and adrenaline you get to experience from a live show.
