"AFTER "EARTH A.D." THERE WAS NO PLACE TO GO, WE HAD TAKEN IT TO THE LIMIT."
PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on "Peak MISFITS" according to bassist/co-founder Jerry Only, a milestone in hardcore punk, and the end of an era -- the "Earth A.D./Wolf's Blood" era/second full-length album.
"After "Earth A.D.," there was no place to go, we had taken it to the limit. We tapped out. That was it. What "Earth A.D." did was launch the hardcore scene, the death metal scene, the thrash scene. All those other bands, SLAYER, ANTHRAX, MEGADETH, METALLICA, all those bands that came after us used that as their guiding light.”
-- JERRY ONLY, via UDiscoverMusic, "Earth A.D.": How THE MISFITS Fashioned a Lasting Hardcore Punk Classic," December 1, 2022
I've never considered this point of view before, and come to think of it, it would've been quite the task following up this album with something even more frenzied, ferocious, finalizing and fucking brutal. The album art alone, too!! It was a definite watermark in the development of extreme music, Jerry. Agreed!
Rest in festering noise, Mad Marc Rude (1954-2002), "On Earth as it is in Hell."

U.S. THRASH & HARDCORE REACHES UK SHORES -- UP THE THRASHER-PUNKS!
PIC INFO: Spotlight on an unnamed UK thrasher with impeccable tastes in the then underground sounds of the era, mainly of the Bay Area thrash metal & hardcore punk subgenres, c. 1984.
Really wish there was more background info to be shared on this certain UK thrasher (what gig he was attending, for starters), but the mysterious aspect does hold its own allure as well.

The last couple of posts were of some music I like listening to.
I also really love the band KORN, so that's why I also really like Chaoseum
