METAL MONDAY: Break On Through by The Doors - Now you might be thinking that The Doors are not metal. Strictly speaking you are probably right, but all the metalheads of the day were Doors fans and had a bigger influence on metal than people acknowledge. Also, this is a shoutout to Ray Manzarek, the Doors founding member and keyboardist, who passed way today. Without him and his unique sound, a song like Break on Through would not be the classic it is today. RIP Ray.

"Fuck yeah."

marksbirch:

California Über Alles by Dead Kennedys - The Dead Kennedys were one of the earliest and most notable of hardcore punk bands to come out of California. I first got wind of them when the PMRC targeted the Dead Kennedys who were later indicted on obscenity charges for their album Frankenchrist. Ever since then I was a fan. Also it was the first and only time that I ever viewed Oprah to watch Jello Biafra and Tipper Gore lock horns.

California Über Alles was the first single and the song that launched the Dead Kennedys. I can relate to the song having lived in California and experienced its very screwed up politics and screwball politicians. Funny how a song about Governor Jerry Brown is as relevant now as it was when the song was first released in 1978. Anyway, the song itself is excellent, the lyrics pointed and smart, and the aggression visceral which reminds you that there was much more to the band than the theater and controversy.

Great song
