The Viletones: Saturday Night/Sunday Morning (1983)


Roberto's Rarities:
An irregular MRML series powered by the wild generosity of our reader, Roberto: Enjoy and don't forget to leave our benefactor a thank-you comment.

"In 1972 every band in the world was Grand Funk, now every band in the world is the Stooges."
Lester Bands in a 1981 Viletones review.
Yesterday (see HERE) we both rebutted and lauded Toronto's punk scene of the seventies, of which The Viletones were crucial players. The Viletones, led by singer Steven Leckie, were not quitters and kept their Stooge-punk sound alive through the mid-eighties and then roared back in the nineties. This live min-album kicks it hard and catchy and is made all the more impressive by how out-of-step it was for 1983.

    Thanks for posting this great record! 8 of these songs are released with additional songs from the same show on the What It Feels Like to Kill CD but my fave song Danger Boy was left off the CD.
