In high school I did 10 folk punk songs in one minute, almost like acoustic grind. Thats lost to time now though
In high school I played noise grind over 'Folk Punk' band geeks 'busking'outside the school. I lost a lot of my rich kid friends that I got into punk when they discovered ska and folk punk, cause they were also band geeks and hung out with band geeks thst liked that stuff as well. I wss getting into crust and grind and hanging out with homeless people and had no time for that trash. They were dressing up as pirates and having choruses like "drop out! Quit your job! Run away! Fall in love!" While living in 3 story houses with in ground swimming pools in their back yard. Mischief Brew and This Bike is a Pipe Bomb fucking rules and I love old folk music but ive got beef with folk punk ever since 2006 or so and it's effects are still noticeable. To me its generally smacks of rich kid hipsters who want to dres like Peter pan
Oh shit, Erik Peterson was a friend of mine before he passed. Fucker met me when I was 13 years old, im still in touch with his wife from time to time. Goddamn RIP to a real one.
Whaaat? I met him a few times while he was on the road before he passed but not much more than quick chats. Dude was nice as hell, and listened to my high-school band's demo and got back to me about it on MySpace. Seemed like one of the most legit people out there and holy hell could he play. I think he also understood the folk part better than most folk punk...and was also more punk
Yeah man, we were friends. Idk really what more to say, he was fucking great.
I think we met the first time when he was opening for Amebix and was on cloud 9 about opening for Amebix as anyone would be prior to the whole Rob being a holocaust denier thing
Yeah, Erik was the fucking best. Im gonna bow out of this conversation because talking too much about him makes me sad as fuck and I dont feel like doing that to myself right now, but if you ever wanna DM about Mischief Brew, im game! He informed so much of my life, I would not be the person I am (for better or worse) without him.
My favorite memory is interviewing him for my punk blog, and in doing such gave him his first Malort shot
