Moving Targets
This is another example of why the 1980's was the greatest decade for independent underground American music. An era for labels like Homestead, SST, Touch and Go and so many others including Taang! Records who would release Moving Targets' seminal Burning in Water LP. The late Pat Brady should be in the Drumming Hall of Kings, check him out on the Brave Noise song, Into the Forest at 4:51.. Great songs by a great band who have been overlooked by far too many for far too long.

Agreed- awesome slice of local 80's scene mr bumpus! Close your eyes and you hear definitely hear the affinity for husker and mission of burma... video production quality is reminds me of uncle floyd show....
ReplyDeleteThanky-thanks anonymous. Moving Targets were making these records at about the same time New Day Rising and Flip Your Wig were released. Speaking of SST, what the hell is their problem? Remaster and re-release your catalogue! Most of the CD's sound like they are being played from inside a couch cushion.
