meat thrashing, skull punk folding chair smashing Mr. McMahon Fuck you mr benson Deal. Hold onto your hard hats starting around 5 minutes ish, staggering segment of excellently activated GD on full volcanic blast with kreutzmann shuffle fanning, never misses getting a nanosecond ahead of the beat in that tastiest of searching ways, phil bombs did i say? Wish i could listen to this first set on vinyl, exquisite
