BIG BOYS 'No Matter How Long The Line Is' LP
$59.00
The final killer album originally released in 1985 from Austin, TX, punk icons, Big Boys, now available on limited edition 180 gram purple vinyl! For the uninitiated - The Big Boys' music bounced between melodic, skate-rock, off-kilter indie and even elements of funk/ dub (if you're a fan of Minutemen, Husker Du, Agent Orange, TSOL - check it out!!)
Big Boys got their start in the late 1970's Austin punk scene. The band was fronted by the occasionally cross-dressing Randy "Biscuit" Turner, with Tim Kerr on guitar, Chris Gates playing bass, and a series of drummers - the best known of which is Rey Washam (Scratch Acid). Unlike the rest of the early hardcore scene of the day, they weren't afraid to stray away from superfast tempos in favor of some nice white boy skate funk! Thanks to their inclusion on some of Thrasher magazine's first "skate comps," the Big Boys were hugely popular amongst the new 80's skate punk crowd. Highly recommended!!
