Piss on your dog (not Cinnamon or Rocco)

Wow, so much pressure to show how with it, underground, and cool I am. I'm sorry, but I'm absolutely terrible at describing things, especially music. The best I can come up with is to say that I'm generally a fan of straight ahead rock music, especially if it has herky, jerky guitars and a loud booming drum.

Here's a band from San Francisco called Crime. They were around in the 70s to early 80s and only had a handful of releases and were pretty obscure until Swami records released a disc with all their collected material in 2004 called San Francisco's Still Doomed. Some even claim, well some dude who wrote on Wikipedia, that their single Hot Wire My Heart/Baby You're So Repulsive was the first punk release by a band not from New York. Being a Michigander and a huge fan of the Stooges, I take exception to that but this sort of thing really wasn't seen much outside of New York in this day and age I guess.

Here's a video of them performing my absolute favorite song of theirs called 'Piss on Your Dog' at San Quentin prison. This was filmed during a period when the very anti-social band had taken to wearing nothing but police uniforms in public. The quality is terrible, but if anything, enjoy it for the shots of all the 1980s convicts holding up Crime posters
