SUBHUMANS

location: Warminster, West Wiltshire, ENGLAND
date: 10 November 1985
length: 72 minutes

This was the "262nd and Final Gig" before SUBHUMANS split (they've likely played three times that number since reforming for good in 1998). A loose and fiery set that features "From The Cradle To The Grave" and sounds every bit as important and relevant as it did 34 years ago.

Solidifying my belief that RAMONES are wholly overrated, this "Leave Home"-era set blows up the "full speed ahead, all go/no slow, rapid fire" myth. Ballads, pauses between songs, essentially a mid-paced affair all around. Things pick up for the last several tracks, but I'd probably have already been outside drinking beer on the sidewalk by the time they got to the good stuff. Don't get me wrong, RAMONES are fine, but....

Three song television performance ripped in moderate (at best) fidelity. East to forget how great these songs are/were, and worth noting that "Art I Ficial" sounds really slow here, and it gives it a pretty surprising groove.
