Description
REALLY RED - New Strings For Old Puppets 7” TEXAS PUNK DICKS KBD MINT
Absolutely essential late 70's/early 80's Houston band. This 7", their 4th, was released in 1982, and is as fully raging today, as it was back then.Absolutely mint copy.
From Alternative Tentacles:
"Really Red was the backbone of Houston’s underground from the early punk era clear through ’80s hardcore. Like The Dicks in Austin, they directly challenged an insanely violent police department at no small risk to their own lives. Their sound itself incorporated art and post-punk elements, with a musical and lyrical depth on par with bands like Mission of Burma, Wire, or Dead Kennedys. Singer Ronnie Bond (a.k.a. U-Ron Bondage) was never afraid to push intelligence or mess with Texas. Kelly Younger’s guitar style is as unique in its own way as that of The Gang of Four’s Andy Gill, while Bob Weber’s taut, precise and sometimes unorthodox drum patterns would not be heard again until the likes of John Wright of NoMeansNo. It’s all driven forward by the driving, elastic basslines of John Paul Williams" 606 (GS 6.9.3 (606))
