Alright, what we got here is three songs that have been posted before. Go ahead. I'll wait until the whining dies down. That's good, that's a big boy. Let it all out. Okay, now I'll proceed.
These three songs are all excellent examples of the in-the-red recording method, where a little bit of distortion serves to amplify the wildness of the song. Sometimes it's an accident, sometimes it's not. And when it isn't an accident, when it's intentional, it's either to honor the lo-fi of yore, a by-product of vocal chords shredded by abuse, or just simply to wake the dead (see Guitar Wolf). Two of these are older, late fifties or early sixties, the Nick Curran cut was released in '94. Regardless of the amount of distortion or the source, I'd place them smack dab in the red. They go together well and they hit the spot. What more of a reason do you need?
