Crusties

• Track Listing

THE CRUSTIES are a legendary, extremely tight, early/mid 80's, Milwaukee WI based band known for playing fast aggressive hardcore putting their own take on how it should be played. Their music pushes hardcore past the limits, and expands upon what most bands bands were doing at that time. They integrated interesting guitar parts along with super-swift tempo changes and stops. They threw in an occasional trumpet riff along with overt and aggressive jazz influences. It all combined to make up one of the fastest playing and musically unique bands, ever. Every time they played, it was obvious these guys were having a blast, but they took these songs (and their musicianship) very seriously. Practicing several times a week was not uncommon for these guys. Neither was their singer's propensity for blowing giant balls of fire out of his mouth at shows!
