Hopeless Dregs of Humanity
Was it the ultra-fast rock n roll guitar crunch? Was it the machine gun drum fills? Was it the blazing bass work? Those who heard Hopeless Dregs of Humanity were in a state of confusion about what they heard. Those who saw them were awed by the certainty of what they saw. Because they knew it was about more than music. It was about bass amps with the words "Eat Hell" on them being set on fire. It was about the screams of "It's Time To Rock!" that launched every show. It was the sense of potential chaos that could, and did, erupt at any moment during the set. It was about Everclear-fueled fireballs setting pipes in basements on fire. It was about ceremonius destroying of equipment at the end of every set. It was more than music. It was a ritual of revolution. But this ritual didn't come with pomp and parade. It came with sweat, blood, fire, and raw-electric energy. We may never know exactly what it was, but to those who understood it, the message was clear.
