As The Skels staggered to their denoument, Bill Hafener’s Cowpatch achieved escape velocity on this ecstatic cassette. It’s Live At Leeds meets Zuma at the Zen Arcade; rock with a Fucking Capital ROCK. “Goin Down” is the defiant declaration of intent: “I just wanna make a living/If that’s not too much to ask/I just wanna talk with everyday people/Who don’t have their head stuck up their ass.” Yeah. Don’t miss the harrowing “6 or 9”; Hafener pummels his SG until it pukes blood.

Happy to report Bill is still rockin’ that sweet Hi-Watt; check out his latest band, The Black River Republic!
