Gorilla Biscuits

There are plenty of bands that only manage an album before being shit.
Theres the whole you can usually release a load of singles and then an album, but then that album will show the signs of your down fall, or the classic 2-3 single and one album mix.
Blitz being a classic example:
2 stellar singles
And album showing the progression.
followed by a final "acceptable" single but with the obvious swan song sound to it.
Partisans did much the same thing before managing to save themselves by changing the whole sound.
Clash.
Pistols.
its a general punk blueprint.
anything after that first LP and you're on rocky ground.
There are exceptions, and I will wait for you all to point them out now

 

so true about Blitz! ha ha..they had that lame video from UKDK...

On the other hand, the Business, they still rule. I got to meet/drink with Mickey Fitz a few years ago in Pittsburgh. It was a highlight of my life.

 

This is sick! GB was always one of the most fun hc bands to see on a Sunday afternoon...
I wonder if there's gonna be a banana yellow colorway...

 

Liskfest is next weekend. I hope its a vinyl release show, brian? alex? who's coming?

 

is there any update on this guy? so excited for this!

 

Holy

 

fuck ya!!!

 

Lethal!

 

I want this too

 

Test pull in the possesion of mr. Flynn,

 

such a rad figure, would be cool to see one
with flocked hair & a bit on the forearms

love those feet, drooled at the proto you
guys had displayed @ SDCC in july.

 

I am so excited for this release!!! It's been a bit since I have been super stoked on a new figure. Thank you S7!

 

S7 is the best...

 

looking SO good! i cant wait!

 

i'm curious to know if anyone is into the figure without the nostalgic connection to the band or if we are all old farts desperately clinging to memories of days gone by through a cool hunk of plastic? anyone into it for the pure aesthetics as a stand alone? just curious...

 

Old fart desperately clinging to memories of days gone by reporting for duty sir!

 

Personally likin' the sculpt based on its own merit as a neat twist on the fight figure platform . . . Gorilla who?

 

I like the sculpt and like Gorilla Biscuits...I saw them live, but it was a recent tour, and seeing as I'm 27, its not nostalgia but it is love for a great hardcore band!

Why did they come to Japan AFTER I moved back to the United States?

 

It's a Monkey in a hoodie. What's not to like?

I predict Flynn will get posi-top haircut for release day.

 

Cant stand the NYHC, the fig is OK but I think it's a given you have to have some kind of connection to the band. Not saying they suck or anything I just never liked em. Now if S7 did the bigboys skeleton.... Elderly Nostalgia AHOY!

 

I have never listened to them or seen the album artwork until this topic. But I think the figure looks awesome.

 

i would be lying if I said nostalgia had nothing to do with it but this figure is really damn cool because my daughter just said so. She has no clue who GB is.

 

>Now if S7 did the bigboys skeleton

that's an idea! +7
