Always an education at GroundZero!

[@GroundZeroSalem]

And a party, or Christmas. That depends on if you're going by Fishbone or Weird Al.

[@albertampel4175]

Great Sunday night entertainment, thank you Pat! Some cool German Death Metal gems there! I still have my old "Hallucination" Atrocity shit. I grew up with that s**t. Saw Massacre live with Morgoth and Immolation in 1991. My first "new" Motörhead record was "1916" as well. They played my hometown with The Cycle Sluts From Hell (feat. Bobby Gustavson). I guess I´ll have to pull out the old WWF VHS tapes now, hehehe...

[@GroundZeroSalem]

I had no idea Bobby Gustafson was in the Cycle Sluts. At some there was a Sick of it All member in that band too

[@Kamchatka_75]

A lot of cool stuff. Always a pleasure to watch. Cheers 🍻

[@GroundZeroSalem]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@kaptaink1897]

I wasn't a fan of Spiritual Healing back in the day. Revisiting it the last couple years, it's grown on me, I think it's a great album now.

[@GroundZeroSalem]

I definitely revisit it at least yearly, and it's still yet to really hit me.

[@holspa]

Great SUFFOCATION and MOTORHEAD albums, cool to see them on vinyl.

[@GroundZeroSalem]

Cheers!

[@GETINTOITwithJasonHook]

You nailed the definition of "Leather Jacket pop punk" haha. Sugary but not to sweet. Songs about hating yourself but not with the goofiness of the Fat/Epitaph sound ( which I also love). Some other examples are Teenage Bottlerocket, Chixdiggit and Masked Intruder.

[@GroundZeroSalem]

I never really checked out those newer LJPP (there, it's a clumsy acronym now, let's gooo) bands but maybe I should. Are any of the members terrible people? I kind of need that for that particular genre. J/K.

[@9thcircle73]

The Vindictives are great. JoeIy's wife used to own an awesome record store called the Dummy Room. It lasted from 93 to 98 and stocked tons of killer tunes. Great video, as always.

[@GroundZeroSalem]

I remember reading about The Dummy room in MRR all the time. The Vindictives song of the same name is one of their best too. I didn't know Joey's wife ran the place though. That's pretty cool.

[@GGfunhouse]

Good video. Rokey Erickson reference is appreciated. Nice nod to The Wipers as well. Nice picks!

[@scottmazza3598]

love your videos man!

[@dustintbrproblems]

another killer video, man

[@wadeconrad5573]

Hey Pat, great video with some awesome albums here! The Scorpions, Depravity, Suffocation and others. Phlebotomized rules too!! As does wrestling! It has gotten a bit better in the last couple years, but the old school stuff is still the best. Love that you put Roddy in your intro. Take care!

[@GroundZeroSalem]

"Just when you thought you knew the answers, I changed the questions" - that man was a genius. RIP.

[@wadeconrad5573]

@@GroundZeroSalemheck yeah! He’s one of my favorite wrestlers of all time. And I think “Fly to the Rainbow” is one of the best Scorpions albums!

[@adamsalem7050]

Another good update Pat. I got some stuff i saw Deicide for the first time in Kentish town so apart from the new album and legion i got Once Apon the Cross and Serpants of the light in one CD Package. And the first album. I got Bloodfirst by Cannibal Corpse and the Wretched Spawn. Going to see them with Muncipual Waste and Immolation at the camden roundhouse in a couple of weeks. Got Infernal storm by Inncantation,& Exhumed/Hemdale splitt from J dwag! Got the live 50th anniversary stranglers album of which im in the inner sleeve photo on the barrier at the albert hall Got the damned live album and Hughs one and then its the full stranglers 50th anniversary eueopean tour in october.

[@GroundZeroSalem]

Some great pick ups there man. Congrats on making it onto a Stranglers record!

[@matthewkinne7662]

Great episode pw. Few things... longing for death by atrocity is an absolute masterpiece and destroys hallucinations, so check that out. Also, I like the retro video game addition.

[@GroundZeroSalem]

Damn, I'll have to check that one out, I've heard people pan it, but there's no accounting for taste I guess.

[@noheroes8626]

Loved hearing the wrestling talk. I grew up watching during the 90s. I was off and on. I haven’t kept up with it since like 2009 but I’ve always loved watching stuff from the 80s and 90s. I got back into new wrestling last year. It’s really good. I actually can’t believe how good it’s been.

[@GroundZeroSalem]

Yeah, I kind of want to check out AEW, but I can't seem to find an easy way to do that without paying for sling. WWE is definitely good right now. The new NWA was really good before COVID shut it down.

[@noheroes8626]

@@GroundZeroSalem Honestly I have never been able to get into AEW. The style is not for me. Try it out, it has fans. They have talented people.

[@biggravycapone4778]

Fuck yeah more video game and wrestling talk alongside the usual def welcome here 👍 Been a while since I listened to Cursed, definitely a classic

[@jonaskazlauskas9084]

SEPTIC FLRSH - Esoptron. One of the best Atmospheric Death Metsl albums ever !!! It's nice you picked LP with original artwork. There's some reissues of this LP with wimpy digitalized shit .

[@ajh229]

Pat, great video as usual. I’m very impressed by how efficient you are with your time - your encyclopedic music knowledge, video games, raising a young lad, watching wrestling videos, podcasts, and still managing to name-check Laura Loomer and Andrew Tate. Edit: Love the little Depravity cold plunge skit btw! And your take on messing with original artwork

[@GroundZeroSalem]

Weeelll, if I was THAT good at time management I probably wouldn't be going almost several months without an update, but thanks all the same!

[@scottmazza3598]

Poison Idea IMO is easily one of the greatest bands of all time. If they could have kept it together I think they could have had commercial success. Anyone into hard music references feel the darkness. You should check out their last record 'latest will and testament' which I believe came out in 2006. Shit blows everything out of the water as far as hardcore punk goes at that time. Pig champion STILL had riffs. The song With/against from that album is an absolute ripper. The grave mistake records camp of kids at that time could only dream of writing a hardcore song like that.

[@GroundZeroSalem]

Yeah, Latest Will and Testament rules, as does Confuse and Conquer from 2015ish. My intro to PI was By the Grace of God covering Plastic Bomb and then buying the first 3 releases on Taaang! Cassettes for dirt cheap in Boston, as cassettes were getting phased out of stores (late 90s) and that labels stuff was everywhere. Good times!

[@rubberlover666]

That Ramones-esque pop punk (that I love) I've always heard it referred to as "Mutant Pop" pop-punk, referencing the 90's label that put out ten million releases by basically every band that sent them a CD-R all called something like "The -ingtons"

[@GroundZeroSalem]

I remember Mutant Pop. Boris the Sprinkler and D4 were on there. Prolific label!

[@rubberlover666]

@@GroundZeroSalem I think their biggest success was Mr. Crispy who eventually became The All American Rejects.

Hi Pat hope everything going well

Hey man, hope you're good too.

Lord i love the cover of Effigy of forgotten ( i had it too in highschool at some point). And love the description by Dean Seagrave for it. Anyway which band is in the background?

[@melvinramone2605]

I know what you mean about Roky/The Wipers in the 90s. I think tribute albums played a role. I know I discovered both of those artists around that time that way. The Scientists too, who are cut from somewhat similar cloth.

[@GroundZeroSalem]

Huh, never heard of The Scientists. I got to catch Roky at Chaos in Tejas a few years before he passed. Billy Gibbons came up and jammed with him, super cool to see. I wish I was more familiar with his music then.

[@melvinramone2605]

@@GroundZeroSalem ZZ Top were one of the bands on that tribute album (they did the same song as Jesus And Mary Chain!). I got to see Roky a few times, including once on Devil's Night in Detroit and once just a few months before he passed. The Scientists were an Australian 80s Punk/Post-Punk band. Musically kind of a midpoint between The Birthday Party and The Cramps. They were a big influence on Mudhoney and The Melvins covered them too. If you like that kind of thing they're worth looking into.
