Just downloaded self titled because I heard they were a bit like Fugazi - it's great if a bit messy and poorly mixed(?).
Where do I go from here?

Yank Crime
is infinitely better, and one of my favourite albums
apart from that, there is only a 7" or two, and there's nothing else to hear
move on to Hot Snakes if you haven't already
thnx
what are hot snakes like?
i hear their records are selling like hot cakes.
KILL ME NOW.
hot snakes are amazing
it's rock and roll in punk form
get any of their albums, there isnt a definate "best record". my personal favourite is Suicide Invoice though.
Both albums are brilliant
^ what he said basically, Hot snakes are better in my opinion, automatic midnight is my personal fave.
cool, they sound great.
whats their relation to DLJ? ex-members?
indeed
other bands with members of DLJ are Pitchfork and Rocket from the Crypt
and new band the Night Marchers, who have an article on them over there ------>
i forgot to say
Pitchfork and RFTC are both worth listening to as well, RFTC especially, amazing band
Don't forget Rocket From The Crypt either!
Definitely definitely
get Yank Crime. It's utterly essential, unlike self-titled which is merely good.
And yeah, give Hot Snakes a listen. They never did anything as good as Yank Crime but are definitely worth a listen.
thanks
you lot are more than helpful.
Hm am I wierd?
Although i do love Yank Crime, I kind of prefer the first one..
Sorry I have to say this...
ROME PLOWS! ROME PLOWS!
that is all.
I just need to add
Aloha! Suit up!
thanks
Do you compute? Do you compute?
Do you or don't you?
I think you do!
^best DLJ song.
troof.
Obits?!
Rick Froberg (Vocalist/Guitarist/Visuals in DLJ & Hot Snakes) has a new band too, called Obits. It's pretty good.
I'd like to echo
the sentiments about Yank Crime, great album.
Shockingly, I've never checked out Hot Snakes, will have to get around to it!
