Soul Asylum: Time's Incinerator


If you wonder if Soul Asylum really were a punk band, this 1986 cassette tape (on Twin Tone!) , alongside the mini l.p. Say What You Will is the proof. Thankfully, it also proves that they were an adventurous lot from the get-go. There's lots of odd ends her including now-deceased basist Karl Mueller singing James Brown's "Hot Pants", a rave-up of Johnny Cash' s "Cocaine Blues" and some Black Flag Oak Arkansas-styled originals like "Dragging Me Down", "Broken Glass" and "Your Clock".

  5. i still have the cassette of this in the Nomad archives (registered trademark).
    Those pre-sounding like a Tom Petty tribute band shows were always Punk Rawk.

    A fine coincidence. Or is it?

    Hopefully this is a 'poof-free' version !

    Yeah converting from tapes can be a pain in the arse. Enjoy!

    I suppose they did grow to sound Petty-er in their old age, there are worse fates....

    Hang Time is reasonable stopping point because everything after that is more of a mixed bag. That said, I enjoy a mixed bag more than the next person...
