Big Boys: Industry Standard / Where's My Towel 12"
Debut album originally released in 1981 from Austin, TX, punk visionaries, Big Boys. The Big Boys got their start in the late 1970ās Austin punk scene. The band was fronted by the occasionally cross-dressing Randy āBiscuitā Turner, with Tim Kerr on guitar, Chris Gates playing bass, and a series of drummers - the best known of which is Rey Washam (Scratch Acid). Unlike the rest of the early hardcore scene of the day, they werenāt afraid to stray away from superfast tempos in favor of some nice white boy skate funk.Beyond the funk tendencies, the band at times played an early brand of post-punk not unlike their contemporaries The Minutemen. Thanks to their inclusion on some of Thrasher magazineās first āskate comps,ā the Big Boys were hugely popular amongst the new 80ās skate punk crowd. They were also known for the encouragement of crowd participation, breaking down the barriers between performer and audience. They even covered Kool & the Gang, never wavering when venturing into uncharted musical territory.Now yāall, go start your own bandā¦
