I FEEL YOUR HEAT
THROUGH MY BODY
WHENEVER YOU MOVE
was an
American
Hard rock band,
based in
New Jersey
and featuring
singer
guitarist
Tony "Bruno" Rey,
keyboardist
Gregg Munier,
bassist
Gary Taylor,
and
drummer
Chuck Bonfante.
The band is
best known
for their
1989 song
"Love Has Taken Its Toll".
Black Flag
is an American
Punk Rock Band
formed in 1976
in Hermosa
Beach, California.
Initially called
Panic,
the band was
established by
Greg Ginn,
the guitarist,
primary songwriter,
and
sole continuous member,
and singer
Keith Morris.
They are widely considered
to be one
of the first
hardcore punk bands,
as well as one of
the pioneers of
post-hardcore.
After breaking up
in 1986,
Black Flag
reunited in 2003
and again in 2013.
The second reunion
lasted well over a year,
during which they
released their
first studio album
in nearly three decades,
What The...
(2013).
The band announced
their third reunion
in January 2019.
Black Flag's
sound mixed
the raw
simplicity of
the Ramones
with a style of
atonal guitar
soloing compared
to that of
the New York Dolls’
lead guitarist
Johnny Thunders,
and,
in later years,
frequent tempo shifts.
The lyrics were written
mostly
by Ginn,
and like
other punk bands
of the late 1970s
and early 1980s,
Black Flag
voiced an
anti-authoritarian
and
nonconformist message,
in songs
punctuated with
descriptions of
social isolation,
neurosis,
poverty,
and paranoia.
These themes were
explored further
when
Henry Rollins
joined the band
as lead singer
in 1981.
Most of the
band's material
was released on
Ginn's independent
record label
SST Records.
Over the course
of the 1980s,
Black Flag's sound,
as well as their
notoriety,
evolved.
In addition to
being central
to the creation of
hardcore punk,
they were innovators
in the first wave of
American West Coast
punk rock
and are considered
a key influence on
punk subculture
in the
United States
and abroad
SOMETIMES WE RAISE
OUR GUNS OF PAIN
BUT I'LL BE YOUR DEFENDER
CAUSE IF LOVE MEANS WAR
BABY, I SURRENDER
was an
American/British
Hard Rock Supergroup
formed in 1987.
It reunited
Journey keyboardist
with singer
and bassist
Ricky Phillips,
his former
bandmates in
along with
Journey guitarist
Neal Schon
and
drummer
Deen Castronovo.
The band is
known for their
hit single
"When I See You Smile",
which peaked at
number 1
on the Billboard
Hot 100 in
November 1989.
The members decided
on a name for the band
while playing pool.
John Waite
missed a shot
and
Jonathan Cain
made a comment on
how bad his
"English" was
referring to the spin
a player puts
on the cue ball,
and the band decided
to use the phrase.
Jonathan Cain
and guitarist
Neal Schon,
members of the
successful rock band
Journey,
formed
Bad English
with
Waite
after
Journey disbanded.
They were joined
by Ricky Phillips,
who had played bass
for
on two albums
with
Waite and Cain,
and drummer
Deen Castronovo.
