The Way The Music Used To Be...


Cripes! It was nearly twenty years ago. Today! Well, more like eighteen, officially. I think we started recording as The Martyrs in 1987. Jimmy and I'd been rockin' out for a year or more earlier in our basement and up at Paulie V's. We didn't know any chords yet. So it was just a lot of noise. Little did we know Sonic Youth were knowingly doing the same thing out in the city. Who were Sonic Youth? We were still big into Billy Joel. Anyway, it wasn't until Chris and Paul showed interest that we decided to be a band...
