the LAZY COWGIRLS 7"/(also on) Third Time's The Charm CD (as a bonus track) (Sympathy For The Record Industry - 1989)

@rockscissorsgun‘s least favorite writer of the 1980s wrote the following about this song on page 68 of Your Flesh #17 in 1989: “…they even CHANGE KEYS for the last verse! Cowabunga! What’s NEXT Batman? Ferrante and Teicher covers?”

“Life's the same except for my shoes”

[Note to rockscissorsgun: had you not reblogged that Cars song on 2/21/15 with the comment, “first two Cars albums are basically untouchable”, then maybe none of this would’ve happened. CAREFUL WITH THE INTERNET, DZ.]

"...I mean, most of the stuff they're singing about is admirable and all, I just have a hard time believing anyone over the age of ten could find it inspiring..."

YOUTH OF TODAY review by Gerard Cosloy

As a counterpoint to Gerard's review, here's a pic posted by rockscissorsgun's Dave Z with Warzone "...on the way to a show with Youth of Today and Straight Ahead in Albany NY (summer of ‘86)."

"The fact that these guys haven't written a half decent song since their second LP four years ago is somehow not mentioned."

DEATH OF SAMANTHA review by rockscissorsgun's favorite zine writer, Art Black (Editor)

Didja heard? Death of Samantha are playing their first NYC in over 103 years tomorrow 5/29/14 at Baby's All Right in everyone's favorite part of town, South Williamsburg, with LAME DRIVERS and DAVE HILL!!

Things younger than Death Of Samantha's last live show in NYC (actually in 1991): the internet (commercial version), Bosnia & Herzogovinia, Eritrea, Czech Republic, Slovakia (you get the idea), all five members of One Direction, 7 of the 9 current U.S. Supreme Court Justices' first day of service on the High Court (only Scalia and Kennedy served earlier than '91), the last print issue of Forced Exposure, the last print issue of Damp, all members of the very fine LAME DRIVERS (okay, maybe just Joe) Aging Baldini's hairline...

Speaking of Damp, we're almost certain that its Editor-in-Chief-in-Exile Kevin Kraynick will bear witness to the DoS resurrection show, so if you've ever wanted to punch him in response to that swipe he took at the Chills, tomorrow night would a good opportunity.
