Blue – Solid State LP (1994, Flipped Out)
Blue was a scuzzy sort of sounding rock band from Philly in the late 80’s all the way up until their album Solid State in 1994 that was released on Flipped Out. Leading up to the album the band also put out a handful of singles on such notable punk/noise-rock labels like Bovine, Datapanik, etc. They often teetered between being sort of sludgy sounding kind of similar to Floor and their faster paced material; however the majority their catalog presented itself as a more of a straight up sloppy rock band complete with all that lo-fidelity charm with songs that burn out at around the minute to two minute mark. That excludes their incredibly drawn out mutilation/tribute, whichever, to a certain Beach Boy member that spans around 9 minutes and slowly degenerates into a lovely mess of noise underneath the howls of the singer. Anyway, here is Solid State, the only proper full-length from Blue which has been ripped to a high quality for your listening pleasure. I am sure some of those singles that the band are floating around eBay or something for a reasonable price if you’re looking to seek out more from this band, in which I fully encourage you do. Good stuff.
