    Oh my wasted youth. Saw these guys a couple of times in Austin and I think they had as much fun as we did listening to them, which made for a really great show. They would always always dive into the crowd. Great band. They blew everyone completely away because at the time, there was not really anything like them. You either loved them or couldn't deal with it lol.

    I saw them I think 1987 in Munich. It was Christmas Eve. We drove a couple of hundred miles. All restaurants were closed except WIENERWALD, the german / austrian version of kentucky fried chicken. We sat there, the whole restaurant was packed with homeless people who had chicken. Ah yes: the show was excellent! :)

      I MISS BERLIN PUNK ROCK SHOWS. I was there in 1992 for nine months. The squatter shows were amazing. We have to make more clubs like the old Tacheles people. !!! we used to go down to Potsdam and they would have punk rock shows in this old horse stable ! ! it was amazing to see like Agnostic Front and Samiam and Yuppicide play there !!! wow... also the SO36 !!!

    Wow. I hung out with David Yow in east Austin about the time this album came out, my sister was roommates with his girlfriend. He was actually a very polite, mild mannered, quiet, well adjusted person, a strong contrast to the music. So cool you can listen to this on UA-cam, the album has to be rare nowadays.

    It doesn't get much better than this. A good buddy of mine used to work the door at First Ave in Minneapolis and said when Nirvana came through he got to talk to Cobain pretty extensively. He said Kurt kept going on about how Scratch Acid was his favorite band. You can hear their influence on Bleach particularly.

Cobain was a huge Scratch Acid and Pixies fan. What do those have in common? Great drumming and drum sound. Cobain knew what he did when he basically kicked out Chad.

    Saw them in Austin, November 1986, in an ancient theatre with rows of seats that waved with a crazy ripple effect if you dared to lean on them. Like the unhinged stage antics of David Yow himself, they seemed unbolted from anything concrete or real. Needless to say no one was sitting. An ancient black and white film was projected, chaotically flooding the entire stage. It was beautiful and haunting, the visual equivalent of the music itself. Truly a rare feast for the senses.

    There was 3 piece punk band from Denver called Happy World that was very similar to what Scratch Acid was doing musically rejecting the whole hardcore direction punk had been taking bringing back the dark theatrics with their own style. This band seems a bit more experimental but only a bit. Active from mid-80’s to early 90’s when I saw them play as a teenager Happy World did put out at least 2 LP’s: Flowing Field and Chinatown.

And if you're a old person trolling out coz sincerely don't like his music, grow up and get over the fact that the guy had great taste. Thanks to him many people around the globe are aware of this stuff and that's great. Music is there to be enjoyed and recognized, not elitized.

    Can anyone recommend any good noise rock bands. I've been listening to Scratch Acid and Big Black a lot recently and have sparked a thirst that can't be quenched.

      Omg that's exactly how I came here too! Immediately bought the t-shirt as well xD Nirvana is my favorite band, but Scratch Acid is awesome too and I can really hear the influence their sound had on Kurt, especially on Fecal Matter & Bleach. I hate that people here say one band is better than the other, can't we just enjoy both bands? I agree, Kurt had awesome music taste!

    I looked for this release and their second on vinyl for about a year. Finally found them (about a year before The Greatest Gift compilation CD was released, bummer). I still think they are absolutely the BEST punk records I own. I do love Birthday Party, but there are fewer misses by Scratch Acid, IMO.

      I think the stuff by The Screamers was at least as far out there as this stuff, and Big Star's third album was also pretty strange for its time. Also stuff by the Stooges, and that goes back to like 1973? Every band is different, and I don't think that Scratch Acid was revolutionary- just multiple influences with a twist.

    I totally understand how Nirvana came up with their sound for the 'the bleach' album, then they moved to Portland Oregon and picked up Dave Grohl as the new drummer and practiced like 4, 5 hours 5 days out the week, moved to L.A., recorded "Never mind" and then came bck to Seattle hot fckn shit. Less than 4 years later, all over. Makes me think would have been a good Shakespearish type story. Or is it just me?...

    Let's face it we're all here b/c Kurt Cobain said in many interviews that he was a fan of these 1980's "Noise Rock/Heavy Alternative" bands like Scratch Acid, Big Black, Butthole Surfers, Sonic Youth, The U-Men, Flipper, Melvins, Skin Yard, Tad, Coffin Break, Killdozer, Fang, Jesus Lizard. Nirvana's Bleach album makes so much more sense now knowing Kurt's generational influence.
