BLOODBATH: DRUNKS WITH GUNS

These guys was fuckin bad ass. They released a 7" single with a 8 year old kid and had her singing about her 'Fist Puppet'. They all hated each other so much that the band split up but no one would give up the name, so there was a couple different DRUNKS WITH GUNS out there for a bit. Maybe I'm talking out my ass. Its just something I seem to remember. One day I'll upload that Fist Puppet thing.

Jonny Gill and his sister Yanna Trance. Best band ever. I have two of their releases. I wish I had everything. With song titles like Jesus Was Born On An Indian Reservation and Devils Jukebox......

I first heard them on a CITR punk rock show when I was 15. Been a huge fan ever since.  They were so ahead of their time.

BOOK OF THE WEEK: SHARDIK by Richard Adams

When I was 12 I was totally into WATERSHIP DOWN, soon after I read THE PLAGUE DOGS. Then my Mom brought SHARDIK back for me and I just couldn't get into it. 28 years later, I gave it a chance and it's amazing.
What if Jesus was a really big bear instead of a man. How would we interpret his actions? How would his followers worship? That's kinda what his book is about.
It follows a hunter in an ancient tribal society after he discovers a giant bear who has been prophesied to be the return of God to earth. Of course, the bear proceeds to kill some heretics and destroy half the village and wander towards their enemies homeland. This is interpreted as a declaration of holy war. The people heed the call. The story follows the hunter and his people as well as a few other societies as they fight for supremecy. Corruption, slavery, religion, forgiveness and loyalty are some of the themes explored. It would make an epic movie but Jesus freaks wouldn't approve......
