Sound it Out # 23: OFF! - "King Kong Brigade"

OFF! is a band full of Southern California punk rock royalty: Keith Morris (Black Flag, Circle Jerks), Dimitri Coats (Burning Brides), Steven McDonald (Redd Kross) and Mario Rubalcaba (Hot Snakes/Earthless/Rocket From The Crypt). Their new, self-titled  album comes out on May 8. It has sixteen songs and is sixteen minutes long. So at 1:36, "King Kong Brigade" is relatively epic.

The OFF! record also boasts excellent cover art by Raymond Pettibon. 

Download "King Kong Brigade" and rock the fuck out.

    Looking at their band photo makes me feel like a total square. I think I still have a Thrasher t-shirt in the basement, maybe I’ll put it on and not shower for a week.

    I wanna club ya like a baby seal and staple your scalp to my steering wheel!

    Keith sounds the same no matter what he does.

    I love it!

    Ha, I used that same Pettibon art for a band flyer back in college.  Bands are going to be taking art from his old self-published comics for decades.

    awesome! love stuff like this.

    I love that OFF! is bringing back the classic hardcore sound with a slight update. The political and social atmosphere in north america right now is perfect for music and messages like this. 

    There are some other great bands doing this stuff now too, a number of them from Toronto. Career Suicide, Fucked Up, Teenanger, and This Mess come to mind.

    Awesome! Sounds like I might have this song on an old tape somewhere. Classic punk rock sound from the early ’80s.
