Royal Trux : Classic or Dud ?

that doesn't sound healthy.
unless he thinks JSBX are so unabashedly atrocious and soul-less (which they are) that you've "got to love them" for wearing their inanity on their sleeve instead of hiding behind "art".

isn't there a part where they get chased by government dudes in Nixon masks?

They're my favorite band, and I saw it once about five years ago, and have never had the desire to see it again.

it makes hagerty's tv show pilot look like What's Happenin' in comparison.

neil haggerty lying ona floor

wow

that live clip is pretty sweet

way better than the studio version but maybe because of all the cyberflegm

In school I thought these guys were like supernatural heroes and their music magical filth. I don't think my perception has changed a whole lot. Can't stop listening to Veteran's of Destruction today, but Pound For Pound is the one I got first so the one that still makes me giddy.

Disorder

Sickazz Dog is Kickazz tho!!

I just got the new TK Webb album and playing it made me want to pull out some Trux. I just listened to Pound for Pound. I pulled out Thank You as well.

SMALL THIEF THEN!

Veterans might be my favourite record by them, though lately i'm listening to "singles live unreleased" and it's awesome.
don't like pound so much i must say

I never really like Veterans before but it's really kicking my ass today

it's their most accessible after Thank You, but it works fine.

Still, I don't remember Sickazz Dog being so weird! Who else actually sounds like this?

Holy Shit! What is this?

how is the Radio Video EP btw?

i don;t know but i want it xpost

its a comic book, I've thumbed through it. It has a lot of um, rambling word balloons about art theory from what I recall, pretty boring actually.

That sounds so great!

tbh I'm nowhere near complete on this band. Largely due to me falling in love with them as a fifteen year old far far far from good record shops. It took about two months for my local to order accelerator for me, and I've never heard a note of Sweet Sixteen (why I was on amazon just there)

In my head Sweet Sixteen sounds so amazing by the way!

If I could record that album, oh man!

"This giant 64 page comic features the crazed adventures of Royal Trux. "Like night janitors in the Temple of the Most High, they carouse through the psychic refuse of an unsuspecting nation. Whether playing rock and roll or fighting for justice in the realm of the unseen, they are known by one name: Royal Trux."

awesome!

i think ive got that comic kicking around somewhere
