This ain’t no pub rock, pseudo angst crap of the like you get at other places — this is the real deal. Hippies and shit — piss off.

The flowerchildren absolutely loathed Blue Cheer, often to the point of violence, amusingly enough.

What greater tribute can one pay to anyone other than “they really, really got on hippies’ tits?”

Purveyors of proto-metal. Responsible for a million denim jackets with glitter patches on the back. Status Quo without the brain. Do me a fucking favour.

I appreciate Blue Cheer more for their influence than for their actual music. Give me The Melvins instead.
