schlong - pooploops ep (1994)

Think of Operation Ivy. That Tim Armstrong would go on to form Rancid makes a certain amount of sense. That Jesse Michael's future music would take a mellower vibe with reggae undertones also makes sense. But Dave Mello joining Schlong? I wouldn't have predicted that.

Had the pleasure of seeing them twice, once in Fresno in 1994, and a reunion show in Sacramento a few years ago. They were amazing both times. Schlong is one of those bands you have to see to fully get it. On the surface it may all seem like one big dick/piss/poop joke, but these are some extremely talented dudes. Plus, Punk Side Story
 is one of the greatest things ever.

Anywho, I had to use Audacity to fix a couple of skips my record had (hey there's a game - see if you can find the edits!), so if you would like a "pristine" version, go here and purchase The Unessential Schlong, which has the Poop Loops EP and a bunch of other stuff.

    many years ago I caught Schlong with Victims Family & No Means No it was a great time. Thanks for bringing back that memory with this post... I haven't heard the Poop Loops 7" in a long time.... rad!

    three of the most musically proficient punk bands ever. must have been a great show. I saw VF & NMN play together, Schlong was not on the bill.
