Really Red
Teaching You The Fear
(MTR402)
The explosive and turbulent Texas of the late 70s produced a wealth of
great hardcore with the likes of the Dicks and the Big Boys, Right up
there was Houston's Really Red spitting out their own brand of
political hardcore. This, their debut release and long out of print,
inspired "Kill from the Heart" to write:
"Really Red's first LP is utterly mind blowing from start to finish.
Their songs follow no convention, boiling in the same musical melting
pot where the Minutemen and early Wire swam. The vocals often call to
mind D. Boon, who also could convey fierce emotion whether he was
singing or shouting, joking or railing... The title track, with its
menacingly anxious bass line and shakily spoken lyrics "Take one
Chicano with his hands cuffed behind his back" is one of the most
haunting political punk songs ever written. When it explodes into the
chorus and Ronnie spits out "Teaching you the feeee-aaaar! It really
is a revelation... This is what pop music will sound like after the
revolution."
