Really Red
Teaching You The Fear
(MTR402)

Out mar 20th 2004

The explosive and turbulent Texas of the late 70s produced a wealth of great hardcore with the likes of the Dicks and the Big Boys, Right up there was Houston's Really Red spitting out thier own brand of political hardcore. This, their debut release and long out of print, inspired "Kill from the Heart" to write:

    "Really Red's first LP is utterly mind blowing from start to finish. Their songs follow no convention, boiling in the same musical melting pot where the Minutemen and early Wire swam. The vocals often call to mind D. Boon, who also could convey fierce emotion whether he was singing or shouting, joking or railing... The title track, with its menacingly anxious bass line and shakily spoken lyrics "Take one chicano with his hands cuffed behind his back" is one of the most haunting political punk songs ever written. When it explodes into the chorus and Ronnie spits out "Teaching you the feeee-aaaar! It really is a revelation... This is what pop music will sound like after the revolution."
