erh, probably its "only rock and roll".


A Forum for non-metal/hard rock-related music discussion? At the very least Mr. Rollins' music is hard rock. Black Flag was a punk/hardcore band that teetered on metal. Once again without a punk forum, it defaulted to the Heart of Metal.

I always had the impression that punk and even hardcore had more in line with traditional rock music then metal, but whichever.

He strikes me this way as well, and I can't get past it.

I appreciate him from afar more than anything, i like what he does but never really got into his music.

His writing is great. One bit he wrote on Dave Lee Roth was spot on, he gets it and what the Diamond one is all about and another piece on Roky Erickson was brilliant.

Anyone who trumps and helps the incredibly overlooked genius of Roky gets a big tick in my book.

His radio show is great, he loves and plays alot of my favs like the Beasts Of Bourbon, Scientists, Hanoi Rocks, Cramps etc. So the guy has got great taste.


One bit of music i do love from him is his cover of 'Let There Be Rock' with Aussie punk legends the Hard-Ons....
