audio jihad, vol 1 (2001)

Obviously, these mix CD's were not carefully curated. They were just slapped together randomly. No real rhyme or reason. You have to understand - this was before iPods and iTunes and Spotifies and Google Play Musics and RDIO's and Groovesharks and Pandoras. The point wasn't to come up with a perfect mixtape of hair metal power ballads to show that girl you like that you do have a sensitive side, not that I ever did that or anything, but simply to cram together a bunch of songs I liked so I could listen to them in the car without lugging around a suitcase of CD's. That gets you something like this. Just picking shit at random. Hardcore, pop-punk, garage, whatev.

Also, I never even liked Boy Sets Fire, so I have no idea why they keep popping up on these. Weird.

Lastly, the name of the comp. Cringe. So bad. So, so bad. And waaay too soon. I apologize to everyone. And yes, there's a volume 2. Egads.

the kid goes crazy

Big shock - Hair Metal lyrics are among the ridiculous human contributions to the universe. But even among those low standards, sometimes I come across something that makes me go to sing365 and verify that the stupidity I just heard was correct.

It just happened. Sometimes I will revisit some of the albums that shaped my small-town metal youth. So on goes some Y&T. Contagious (1987) has ridiculous lyrics throughout, but one song is just the filet of ridiculous lyrics: "The Kid Goes Crazy".  And within that filet there is a sub-filet, a lyric that stopped me cold and demanded immediate blogging:

My hair is long

I got my red Reeboks on

Oh yeah, I'm lookin' pretty cool

Ok, you have long hair. That's pretty cool I guess. But, and maybe I'm getting old and don't remember a particular late 80's fashion fad, but red Reeboks? Was that a thing? That wasn't a thing, right? Unless you were a member of the Atlanta Hawks in the middle of a game or were Sammy Hagar, there's no way I would have ever seen someone with red Reeboks (or any other athletic shoe) and thought, "That dude? Yeah, he's lookin' pretty cool". You are Dave Menaketti:

You could have mentioned your sweet curls, your leather vest, or your leather pants. But you chose your red Reeboks. C'mon, man.

duck and cover

I've always had a thing for cover songs. So I  finally made this CDin 2000. It's a little predictable, and as you can tell, I was a bit partial to the EpiFat scene in the early/mid-90's. Fuck you, I make no apologies.

Side note, I've updated the cover art on all these mix CD's I'm posting because the originals were that cringe-worthy. We're talking Microsoft clip-art bad.

tooth-chippin' thrash

A comp I made circa 2002. The foundation for this is my favorite tracks from the Short, Fast, and Loud Vol. 1 comp. Apparently, I was trying to curate the track order, but said fuck it 13 songs in (until the last song - weird).

I was living in Sacramento at the time. I moved up there to be with someone, who promptly moved away once I got there. Inexplicably, we stayed together, though that shit was doomed from the start. Anyways, I was lonely, broke, and as low as I've ever been. I was a thesis short of a master's degree, yet working receiving at fucking Fry's Electronics for minimum wage. Though depressed, I was also pissed. Pissed at what? Everything, but mainly myself and my trail of bad decisions spanning almost a decade. It was not exactly a pop-punk time for me. Hence, this.
