Scream - Walking by Myself 7'' (1986)

Short and sweet......

Wool - Budspawn (1992)

So as mentioned below, this band started life in the early 90's when Scream imploded. The Stahl brothers recruited ex Governent Issue drummer Pete Moffett and ex Concrete Blonde bassist Al Bloch (brother of Kurt from the Fastbacks).

They released their first 7'' , Little Darlin in 1992 on the Fuck You record label. This was followed by this brilliant release. Budspawn, self released, should be available today as it's so under rated and should be better known. Here they plough a more melodic rock/punk vein and there's not a duff track on it.

Pete Moffett exited the band after this release and was replaced by Chris Bratton ex Inside Out. The band signed to London Records and recorded the, also, excellent Box Set, but due to poor sales they were dropped. The band split in 1996, which is a damn shame imo.

Pete and Franz both went onto various other projects, but nothing matches this, or Scream; I think they're both at their best when working together.

Scream - Mardi Gras (1990)

The story of Scream should be well know, but just in case.  A band started in 1981 in Virginia and inextricably linked to the Washington DC scene. The band consisted of the Stahl brothers, Pete (vocals) and Franz (guitar)  Skeeter Thompson, (bass) and Kent Stax (drums). They were easily one of the scenes leading lights releasing their first album (Still Screaming), on Dischord, in 1983, which immediately became a classic of its genre.

Their second album (This Side Up) is also a classic in my opinion, by which time they'd added a second guitarist in Robert Lee (Harley) Davidson. A poor 3rd album (Banging the Drum) followed and Kent Stax left the band to be replaced by Dave Grohl.

Dave played on the 4th and 5th albums where the band played a more rock orientated sound.
Both of these albums are very good - No More Censorship/Fumble. Fumble was recorded in 1989, but wasn't released until 1993 when Dischord stepped in.

The band split up in 1990 after Skeeter stole the bands equipment to sell for drugs. Pete and Franz formed Wool and Dave went onto Nirvana.

They also released two 7'', Walking by Myself and this one. They were a great live band, full of power and energy, totally inspiring.
