White Shit - White Shi'ite


What an ignorant, wonderful, ten inch slab o' wax we have here.

White Shit is what happens when the guys from Big Business join the guitarist from Wrangler Brutes. It just gets shitty. Nolen from Double Dagger put me onto these guys' "Sculpted Beef" 12", and it was off to the races for me. These cats recorded a total of 17 songs before they slinked back off to whatever rock they'd been sunning themselves on. The last three are presented here, by the folks at Missoula's finest label, Wäntage USA.

I mean, what can I say about this? It reminds me of Born Against at its weirdest, of the last five years of Chris Thomson's career. Obviously, I fucking love it, and that's before we even get to the G.I.S.M. cover/freakout on side B.

What happens to music like this post-COVID? Does it fade away, because we're all trying not to get evicted, or dodging raiders in the wasteland while searching for guzzoline? Does it get even weirder, reflecting the rise of amorality in American culture and the slide into second rate society? I hope the end result is closer to the latter, because for all the fun of a great pop song, sometimes you just need the soundtrack to scumbaggery.
