Make-Up – Destination: Love; LIVE! (Dischord, 1995)…
From the hashy faces and cranked guitars of the mighty Nation of Ulysses whose ethos amongst many was to never wash away the taste of a good day by brushing your teeth. The bad breath and plaque still erodes the mouth of our hero and leader of ‘liberation theology’ Ian Svenonius. This breed of racy music differs slighty to its hardcore predecessor, countering the capitalism of modern rock and roll with more of an emphasis on live performances and interaction between band and audience, thus incorporating and uniting the crowd or rather their ‘Rhythm Hive’ as fifth member. Hold true your faith and your cynicism, whilst we await this coming reckoning with glee. Beware, be armed!
