Ryan's Record Of The Week #4: fIREHOSE 'Flyin' The Flannel'

Hey everybody!

It's been a minute since we went down to Extreme Noise to talk to certified punk rock-ologist Ryan, however, in a fit of rage at our stale, stale record collections, we made the trek in hopes that he'd have something special for us.

To the surprise of nobody, Ryan came through in the clutch with a re-pressed 80's classic. Sure, we touched on SST, the weather, the college radio in East Lansing, Twin Peaks, Daniel Johnston, skate videos, the low quality of 'high quality European vinyl, & Ryan's Mom, but it's all part of the journey, kids. Check it:



Boom! The re-issue of fIREHOSE's major label debut Flyin' The Flannel. Here's a little taste of what you're getting.

The video for album opener 'Down With The Bass.'



And the video for the aforementioned 'Walking The Cow.'



To quote modern day philosopher Will Smith: 'Parents just don't understand.'

As always, a huge thanks to Ryan down at Extreme Noise for taking the time to sharing his time. He's a busy man and he doesn't have to do it, but he's a good guy. With that in mind, watch those videos, head down to Extreme Noise, tell him, 'Hey, Ryan, thanks for turning me on to my new favorite record.' He'll appreciate it.

Here’s what he had to say about his new release Libra: 

“Libra” was recorded under my sign from September 22nd to October 23rd, not something I’d typically align with but I hear it works whether you believe in it or not. Recorded live with minimal editing. I will be releasing it myself on Cassette early this year on my own label “Tone Filth.”
