Song of the Day # 194 - Crime

 
Everything that was neglected and ignored in Rock music no matter how obscure seems to have its moment in the sun a few decades later. Such is the case now for San Francisco Punk originators Crime. Best known probably for debut single Hotwire my Heart, covered by Sonic Youth they have a career compilation out shortly. It gets an excellent page long review in this month's Mojo, written by Jon Savage who does these things best. Here's their last single, which, he says, 'pushes the riff from Lust for Life into a relentless, surging, tour de force.'
