Circle Jerks
Circle Jerks (stylized as Ciʀcle JƎʀᴋs) are an American hardcore punk band, formed in 1979 in Los Angeles, California. The group was founded by former Black Flag vocalist Keith Morris and Redd Kross guitarist Greg Hetson. To date, Circle Jerks have released six studio albums, one compilation, a live album and a live DVD. Their debut album, ''Group Sex'' (1980), is considered a landmark of the hardcore genre. The band has broken up and re-formed several times, sometimes with different bassists and/or drummers. They disbanded for the first time after the release of their fifth album '' VI'' (1987), allowing Hetson to focus on Bad Religion (which he joined in 1984 and stayed with until 2013) full-time. The Circle Jerks first reunited in 1994 and released their sixth and last studio album to date, ''Oddities, Abnormalities and Curiosities'', the following year before separating for the second time.

12 Bar Blues (album)
''12 Bar Blues'' is the debut solo album from Stone Temple Pilots singer Scott Weiland. Its sound and style differ greatly from STP's previous releases. The design concept of the cover is a homage to the cover design of John Coltrane's '' Blue Train'' album. The title name comes from the simple chord progression known as "twelve-bar blues". Development In a 1998 interview on MTV's ''120 Minutes'', Weiland states that his then brother-in-law introduced him to Blair Lamb, who co-produced ''12 Bar Blues'' with Weiland. Reception Released in 1998 on Atlantic Records, the album was not a commercial success, but achieved some critical acclaim. In a retrospective review, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic gave the album 4 out of 5 stars, declaring "''12 Bar Blues'' is an unpredictable, carnivalesque record confirming that Weiland was the visionary behind STP's sound. He's fascinated by sound, piling on layers of shredded guitars, drum loops, and keyboards, making sure that each song s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Mockingbird Girl
Mockingbirds are a group of New World passerine birds from the family Mimidae. They are best known for the habit of some species mimicking the songs of other birds and the sounds of insects and amphibians, often loudly and in rapid succession. There are about 17 species in two genera, although three species of mockingbird from the Galapagos Islands were formerly separated into a third genus, ''Nesomimus''. The mockingbirds do not appear to form a monophyletic lineage, as ''Mimus'' and ''Melanotis'' are not each other's closest relatives; instead, ''Melanotis'' appears to be more closely related to the catbirds, while the closest living relatives of ''Mimus'' appear to be thrashers, such as the sage thrasher.Hunt, Jeffrey S.; Bermingham, Eldredge; & Ricklefs, Robert E.

Working Class Hero
"Working Class Hero" is a song by John Lennon from his 1970 album ''John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band'', his first album after the break-up of the Beatles. Theme Stridently political, the song is a commentary on the difference between social classes. According to Lennon, it is about working class people being processed into the middle classes, into the "machine". Lennon also said, "I think it's a revolutionary song – it's really just revolutionary. I just think its concept is revolutionary. I hope it's for workers and not for tarts and fags. I hope it's about what Give Peace a Chance was about. But I don't know – on the other hand, it might just be ignored. I think it's for the people like me who are working class, who are supposed to be processed into the middle classes, or into the machinery. It's my experience, and I hope it's just a warning to people, Working Class Hero." The song continued a string of political Lennon recordings that began in 1968 with the Beatles' "Revol ...
