艺人介绍

在80年初那会，punk乐不在像70那阵那么火了，但是它还在。他以一种新的形式又钻回到了地下，人们叫它们硬核。

那阵有个在硬核乐队里相当有影响力的乐队-民兵（the Minutemen），1985年12月22日在去亚利桑那演出的路上，D.Boon死于一场车祸。就如他之前或之后那些离去的摇滚乐手一样，他当时也是27 岁。

于是民兵解散了。george和mike不玩了，直到后来一个名叫 Ed &FromOhio& Crawford死忠fans把他们俩才家中拉了出来，重组了乐队。随后Ed &FromOhio& Crawford买了把吉他开始做乐队，随后他们改名为fIREHOSE，他们干的不错，并于1994年解散。

In 1985, after D Boons tragic death at age 27 signalled the end of the Minutemen, bassist Mike Watt and drummer George Hurley threw in their lot with then-22-year-old former Ohio State University student, guitar player, and Minutemen fanatic Ed Crawford to form fIREHOSE. Taking their group name from a line in Bob Dylans Subterranean Homesick Blues, fIREHOSE continued in the Minutemen tradition of breathtaking musicianship combined with caustic lyrical fusillades inspired by the writing of the Beat Generation and the erect-middle-finger indignation of the Blank Generation. However, with Crawfords decidedly folkie bent insinuating itself into the mix, fIREHOSEs songs began to expand into more traditional verse-chorus-verse songwriting symmetry. And although fIREHOSE never equaled the Minutemens output in terms of sheer audacity and emotional depth, Crawford, Watt, and Hurley recorded rock that was muscular, dense, and daring, along with being tremendously heartfelt. They never patronized audiences or comported themselves as rock stars; they were instead the quintessential post-punk peoples band. Although they achieved wider notoriety than did the Minutemen (eventually recording for a major label), fIREHOSE called it quits in early 1994 after a desultory, dispirited final LP (Mr. Machinery Operator). Still, nearly all of their recorded work stands as some of the best late-80s/early-90s indie rock.
