The 1985 Listening Post - D.I. - Ancient Artifacts

D.I. - Ancient Artifacts


#471/1104
November 29 1985
D.I.
Ancient Artifacts
Genre: Punk
2.2.5 out of 5

Imagine starting a punk band after listening to Dirk Wears White Six and making that the benchmark?
“Wounds From Within” is the most evident of this. 
The rest is as lo-fi punk as one can get, with songs about living in The O.C. Or surfing in HB (Orange County & Huntington Beach, respectively) and other stuff that, honestly, wasn’t all that memorable.
I could, however, hear the beginnings of  latter day punk ala Green Day & Blink 182, so there’s that.
