Description
Gang Green "Older...Budweiser" Emergo records EM 9464 a Gloversville pressing from 1989.
This was the third album by the band and was released in 1989.
(Older... Budweiser marked a change in sound for the band.
Songwriting was no longer mostly a solo effort on the part of Doherty. Nearly every track was written in partnership with another member. Gittleman was the sole writer of two tracks.
The lyrics changed from fun, beer-drinking, womanizing anthems to more socio-political themes—except "Bedroom of Doom", which reverted to form. "We Can Go" was an acknowledgement that they knew they had disappointed some fans by "selling out" or "going metal", but it contained the message that no matter what the genre, they could still enjoy a punk or metal show.
"Church of Fun" was a stab at the widespread prominence of evangelism.
The up-beat catchy melodies had dissipated somewhat, making way for a darker mood, which returns on "Bedroom of Doom" and gives way to full on thrash metal on "Casio Jungle", an attack on electronica music.
"Ballad" features an orchestra, which was used in an ironic fashion.
The band kept its "local" Boston Hardcore-style sound. The album contained some metallic attributes and also proved the band had more than one dimension lyrically.)* Wikipedia
We found and cleaned this album with a Spin Clean MK2 record cleaner using distilled water. After cleaning we test played it on an Audio Technica ATLP120XUSB turntable. The record plays through but there is some back ground noise and an occasional pop, but the record does not skip. It does have paper scuffs and hairlines. It plays through okay, even though it probably went to a lot of parties. We try to follow Goldmine standards when rating our used records. We rate the record a G+ in appearance but a VG- player. The cover is not split anywhere but is has shelf and edgewear and small creases from being handled. The cover also has a discount cut in the low right front corner. Please see the pictures.This album is available mostly on CD and there are not a lot of vinyl copies for sale. It is a rarity. Only 64 members have it on Discogs. Make an offer...thanks.
We will ship the record securely packed in a cardboard record mailer with bubble wrap using USPS media mail. We will send the media mail tracking number when we ship the record.
