The Gun Club - "The Breaking Hands" [Remastered]

[@melvinmainwaring2498]

Used to play this after ringing an old girlfriend, we were married once. Lost times, very emotional.

in a way it's nice to have something that's just ours tho isn't it? That hasn't been appropriated by the masses. Lord knows he merits it tho!

[@chrisschneiders6734]

Yes, they had something going for them...always felt that without knowing about the personal side and struggles..

[@Detourist]

They never made it mega huge because he didn't live long enough, but they gave rise to a style that inspired so many other musicians thereafter, just like what grunge did for modern rock; something so bright and hot that it burns out like a meteor in the atmosphere and then is sacrificed and eaten up by all its babies like those weird spiders.

The sun and sea are smiling While you're going to bed Wish Allah would will me A piece of iron in my head On my knees and wishing On my knees and breaking hands The fish are jumping in Tunis They change colours in my hands You don't watch the movies, like the clouds On a plane to Japan On my knees and wishing On my knees and breaking hands They bring the fish in at Tunis They're changing blue, green and red While Allah has willed me And he's got it to my head On my knees and wishing On my knees and breaking hands On my knees and wishing On my knees and breaking hands lyrics : Jeffrey Lee Pierce

[@SmurphPTFC]

Was getting a bit of Cocteau Twins at Christmas

[@matthewcoombs3282]

Vividly remember this song being played quite a lot by John Peel when it came out in 1987 and always remembered it and thinking it marvellous but never checking out more on The Gun Club. It took me 25 years to check out the rest of the back catalog but I am glad I did!

[@janknibbeler8727]

Oh my God what a beautiful song it’s a masterpiece

[@Knopargajen]

[@tzt1182]

This sounds so much like it was influenced by the Cocteau Twins. Then I looked it up on Wikipedia and Mr. Robin Guthrie himself produced this album. Incredible.

[@jimmypaul23]

I am so mad at myself... I had been mistakenly thinking The Gun Club was a completely different type of music, or genre of "punk" for like 25 years somehow. Like dammit, I gotta stop doin that. I was really missin out. So good.

[@Heathcoatman]

Exactly what I thought. Someone suggested this song from Gun Club and I thought "The old punk band from the 80s?" Nope

[@Sweetheart_of_the_rodeo]

Big country and blues influence mixed with Blondie and the cramps

Mother Juno.... Maaaan, what an amazing record. RIP JLP

When this came out, I wished that Mr. Pierce and Mr. Guthrie would have collaborated further in the future, but, alas. I'll happily take this, though.

[@Agostoic]

Now that i come to know that Mr. Guthrie produces/collaborated in this song is that i understand why among all the great gun club/JL Pierce songs this one stands as my absolute fav of his work. Thanks!

[@ForARide]

The Gun Club are still so massively underrated compared to other bands which were around at that time e.g. Sonic Youth, Hüsker Dü, Jesus & Marychain, Bauhaus, Pixies, Sisters Of Mercy, PIL or whoever.

[@chrisbenson3374]

ForARide underrated the same as All of Gram Parsons work. Jerry Lee Pierce was just as innovating as parsons was in coming up with Country/Rock the same can be said about Jeffrey Lee Pierce and Country/Goth.

[@snapdragonfly6652]

True. Not sure how I found them but nobody else I knew was listening to them

[@1988TheGoods]

Reminds me of the soundtrack to In Bruges by Carter Burwell for some reason

[@jellohudson3735]

Fortunate enough to see the band live three times. The first time was the most amazing. It was a small club in Hoboken New Jersey (just outside of New York City) the place was packed 'seemingly' for the college band that opened for them. But when the band left the stage no one left? I guess they were there for the gun club? It just didn't seem like their crowd. there were a bunch of girls in the audience screaming jeffrey, jeffrey, jeffrey! It was very cult likei and they were very annoying. But when the band (gun club) came on and started to play 'those' songs I realized how much the band deserved that cult like behavior. Seems fitting..,

[@pythonbyte]

this sounds like more like the Cocteau Twins than a Cocteau Twins record, unsurprising given it was produced by the CT's guitarist.

[@k.g.alatore355]

Jeffrey Lee Pierce loved the Twins and I'm pretty sure the attempt to sound similar by having Robin produce the record was deliberate. And I mean, hell, Jeffrey Lee's voice just hits in such a way that it works perfectly with Robin's production style circa 1987.

[@jaxjones5071]

This is a complete nod of thanks to the producer from the artist. It works so very well !
