* Cheetah Chrome started a new band earlier this year called the Batusis with Sylvain Sylvain(NY Dolls), drummer Thommy Price (Scandal, Billy Idol, Joan Jett), & bassist Enzo Penizzotto(Joan Jett)
Young, Loud and Snotty was one of the first punk albums I ever got and it will always hold a special place in my heart. The second album had its moments but wasn't as solid and they quickly fizzled out shortly after that. The Dead Boys were another band who grew out of seminal Cleveland proto-punks Rocket From the Tombs (Pere Ubu being the other). I always considered the Dead Boys to be America's answer to the Damned.
One of the reasons that the first album is so cool is that it was produced by Genya (Goldie Zelkowitz) Ravan. Many people don't realize that a good producer makes a major difference in how an album is received.

The remarkable thing about that production was that they were originally recorded as demo's but the band was so pleased with the results that they ended up using that mix for YL&S.
