Where and When Bought: In Your Ear Alston, trade for Dope Guns and Fucking In The Streets Vol II 2X7" in 1990 after the cd came out

Gwiz-gau Letter Grade: A-

Sad To See It Go: Yes

The classic third single, I believe final  of the Doskocil/Seitrich era, was a classic B-side. "Culture is my enemy! Music Is My Enemy!" rails the closing track of the side.  

Drunks With Guns first wave of singles were perhaps among the most important releases of what was to be called "noise rock" before it was just hardcore.  The back cover is adorned with HC stalwarts like Misfits, Fear, COC and Urban Assault.  Message stickers like "Brian Jones Died For Your Sins" and "Kill Boy George" round out the wall.  There was no aspiration that they would represent something bigger in this 500 pressing.

I was pretty psyched to get a trade from the In Your Ear wall.  Conrad let me have this for the Dope Guns and Fucking In The Streets Vol 2 double vinyl after the cd came out around 1990. For some reason that one has barely cracked $20 max on the Discogs market, it used to be worth much more.   The bastard got what was to become a very high end single by NOFX called The PMRC Can Suck On This for like nothing and now that one is a high end $500-$1,000  piece, but I really didn't care about NOFX and he didn't think it was worth anything at the time.  Years of trying to unload this for $50 and $40 failed, and it finally went out the door for $29.99 where it sat at the last year or two.

So much for my crown jewels that went this week!

Nobody really listens to Bob for blind spiritual uplift or at least I didn't.  The Christian records were the voice of a wrathful God and everybody ripped "Wiggle Wiggle" apart when Bob just wanted you to enjoy life and dance. For me, I look to Bob to push intellectual, sonic or my own nostalgic buttons, if I'm gonna be hon
