If I can recall correctly, Urban had this in his list of favorites as well. I may have listened to it at some point but I'll have to check it out again. The other two are definite gems at that.

Just out of curiosity, does it sound anything like JSBX (Jon Spencer Blues Explosion)? That's the only other thing I can think of that merges punk and blues.

Seems like years since I listened to Suicide or James Chance but you're definitely right, they are both immense albums. As for the Gun Club, that album's really something I've gotta check out.

Good reviews man - looking forward to some more ya

Oh, sorry I missed this. I'm actually not familiar with JSBX! I'll have to check them out.

Damage is an excellent JSBX album. Great list too. Love the Minutemen album.
