They aren't my band, but a group from Conway, Arkansas called The Rockin' Guys did a great cover of "Can Your Pussy Do the Dog" a few years ago. Sounds nothing like the original. This version is almost No Wave.
Hear a sample here: http://www.amazon.com/Can-Your-Pussy-The-Dog/dp/B001C1IV98

Hi guys,
We all know The Cramps covered a lot of songs. But maybe YOU covered a song by The Cramps. Here's a thread where you can post (and promote) songs by your bands or yourself in your shit room, covering The Cramps.
I start with LOVE ME, played by my band, Dead Nachos.
The original was sung by The Phantom (aka Jerry Lott) in 1958, then covered by The Cramps in the Bad Music For Bad People compilation.
I'm sure you've got one to post !

I listened lot to kyuss before. but im not fan of this high pitch singing that is very often in these kind of bands (kyuss got their cool songs thou). and i'm also not fan of this most manly voice in the world like down. For me pure screaming fits best to this kind of music. bands like Eyehategod, Weedeater and Bongzilla do this very well. I'm also fan for scary doom straight from Black Sabbath like Electric Wizard, Saint Vitus, Goatsnake... Electric Wizard is one of my alltime favorite bands. I forgot about Fu Manchu, they talk more than sing that is good, and they rock.

YES! Huge fan! All that early 70s prog stuff (so much riff!) all the way to the likes of Earthless and Sunn. And basically, anything in between. And Sleep!
Been really into Windhand and Thou lately.

Cool -- will definitely check out Witch. Big J. fan here.

This guy. Big fan of the Sabbath, of course. I also dig Saint Vitus (saw them live last year, and they put on quite a show), Kyuss, Sleep, The Sword, Buzzoven, Electric Wizard, Graveyard, Harvey Milk, Melvins, Monster Magnet, Orange Goblin, Pagan Altar, Red Fang, Witchfinder General, and Whores (more recent, album was produced by someone from Harvey Milk).
In a little more of a punk direction (and probably more appropriate for this website), I really like Lecherous Gaze (definitely a heavy Black Flag influence) and Witch (J. Masics plays drums in this punk/metal group).

We're fan of all that Black Sabbath kind of music and we even have a second band to play it loud. We already met fews garagist who played in stoner bands too.
Who here loves that heavy music ?
December 5, 2012 6:56 AM CST
I'd definitely cast my votes for the Swamp Rats, The Sonics, and Link Wray.
December 4, 2012 9:21 PM CST
Swamp Rats (agreed, totally)...! Express - Wastin' My Time, The Hard Times - I Can't Wait Till Friday Comes, The Blox - Hangin' Out, The Rats - The Rat's Revenge, Pleasure Seekers, The Hustlers - Tell Me Baby, LeSabres Combo - Standby, The Calico Wall - I'm A Living Sickness, The Driving Stupid... there are loads; can't go wrong with Los Saicos + The Sonics.
December 4, 2012 9:04 PM CST
Yeah ! I always thought it sounded like the singer had his middle finger out , the whole time !
"UH , WELL , TH' NIGHT WUZ BLACK , NIGHT WUZ BLUE ! ROUND TH' CORNER ,
A SHIT - WAGON FLEW ! A BUMP WUZ HIT , A SCREAM WUZ HEARD ........
A MAN GOT KILLED BY A FLYIN' TURD , I TELL YUH , WHOOOOOOOOOO DO YOU LOVE?
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!".

Ty Segall does a great version of "Don't Talk to Me." http://pitchfork.com/reviews/tracks/12071-dont-talk-to-me-gg-allin-cover/
December 5, 2012 3:04 AM CST
Of course, Always was... is great, but he's also recorded country music and that's some perfect material. Check the Carnival of Excess album.
December 4, 2012 10:23 PM CST
Not that I know of .....If he did'nt , then Question Mark beat him to the punch , posthumously , anyway , by saying "Fuckin'" in his version of "Don't Give It Up , Now".
December 4, 2012 10:05 PM CST
Didn't he cover one of their songs?

A former member of DMZ told me that GG wanted them to be his backing group , but , this was long before he became "The Monster". Under a different set of circumstances , that might have worked , in the short term. I talked to GG a few times , he was'nt so imposing when he was'nt on stage....He said , when he lived in Boston , there were'nt very many bands , there , that he liked at the time , but , he did like The Lyres , and he preferred DMZ to The Lyres , as well.

I'd love to have heard him do a garage album, which could have been a humdinger. He could start dressing sharply and channel his fury more stylishly. It shows he had great taste in music. I know he liked a lot of the blues artists, as he said he could listen to that all day, as I can. I could even easily imagine him doing an R&B album too (as in the proper stuff).
John Battles said:
Yeah , my friend's band , here , did a version of it a few years ago. I forget their name because it's a Japanese name.....The very early Jabbers stuff borders on New Wave OR POWER POP , BUT , I WAS IN TOUCH WITH ONE OF THE GUYS IN THAT BAND , AND HE SAID GG WAS VERY MUCH INTO GARAGE , ROCKABILLY , ETC.
December 4, 2012 7:58 PM CST
Gonzo , I guess no one answered your question , here , but , drink , drugs , jail and accelerated hard living happened to GG....It is almost hard to believe , when you look at pictures if him , taken at scarcely over a dozen years before his death , he looked like he could have done very well with the ladies. Even in '85 , when I first saw him , he still seemed like somebody the chicks would dig......UNTIL !!!!!! You know , doo doo caca poo poo shiser.
Gonzo said:
Holy crap that's GG ? What ever happened to him ...thanks for the replies.
kopper said:Always Was, Is and Always Shall Be LP (1980) is indeed fantastic. There are a couple of other early 7" EPs that are worth hunting down, too. The S/T 7" on Orange Records from 1980 is one, GG Allin & The Scumfucs 7" on Blood Rec. (1982?) is another.
December 5, 2012 3:17 AM CST
Definitely one of my favorite bands too ! Of any genre !!!
December 5, 2012 2:50 AM CST
I was hopeful too !
FSRR was one of the best podcasts around, one of my favorites !
December 4, 2012 10:20 PM CST
Yeah , I remember that , too. I've only watched it , once. Living in the states , I had to buy a copy (Which is fine.) , it did'nt even make the Foreign Film Festival circuit , apparently.
December 4, 2012 9:24 PM CST
I think I saw this in the Joe Meek Film, scenes where he held seances to summon his spirit.

Exactly. I've also heard that Meek and Geoff Goddard would frequently try to make contact with Holly beyond the grave to seek advice on music they were working on. Freaky.

Ryan , That was a good one. Whether Meek really named the day while Buddy was living , or said that he'd made the prediction , when he had'nt , is'nt clear. Holly , of course , was one of Meek's biggest obsessions , and it did'nt even appear to be sexual. He was just that into the guy's music , to the point that he'd kill himself on the anniversary of his death , even.

I always liked the story of producer Joe Meek predicting the death of Buddy Holly through the use of a ouija board. Joe felt compelled enough to tell Holly who just so happened to be touring Europe. He supposedly told Holly that he was to die on February 3rd. Of course, that date would come and go without incident...until exactly one year later.
