[kj] OT: New Bad Brains LP (and TRBNGR)

[gingoblin at easynet.co.uk]

Oh I dunno... Ride With Us, Turbonegro Must Be Destroyed, Le Saboteur and 
Drenched In Blood all do it for me. PLus their cover of Repo Man and a few 
of the b-sides extras were pretty good.   Got a fuck of a lot to live up to 
that's for sure.  Chasing the buck and too much coke is the problem!!!
