totally agree. i think they were tagged as grunge cuz of the time they were operating…and the downtuned guitars, etc. but yeah, they were a lot more than a grunge band. really great songwriting…they could have easily made the sound less abrassive, but thank god they didn’t!
For starters I love … For starters I love Paw so I’m def no slagging them off on any level. I wrote this quite a while ago quite drunk too I think! What I was getting at is that they were not part of any scene as such. They were very far removed from the whole Seattle thing which had a real community element to it which you could hear sound wise in their records. I always thought Paw were kinda out on their own and this was reflected in their records lyrically and sonically. Anyway music great so screw the genre! =)
I’m curious to know … I’m curious to know how old you are. Dude, this album most definitely was grunge. Same time as Sap, Badmotorfinger, right before Ten and Nevermind…they (Paw) weren’t guilty of ripping anything off (I’m looking at you, STP) but they were certainly looking to play material that was within the same genre as Mother Love Bone (who started it, FYI) …grunge. Named after how me and my band’s laundry pile looked and smelled (well, almost all of this comment is true)
i seen these in … i seen these in liverpool crazy house years ago . hadn’t heard of them till i seen them . i went out the next day an bought the album
Really really great … Really really great album. Got sidelined big time by grunge – weird how they keep getting tagged under that here – def weren’t a grunge band. Absolutely love this album – so refreshing in the way it doesn’t try and be all cosmo miserablist cool – picks up on all their own space as teenagers kids – same passion diff scenario – I grew up on the cusp of the countryside and huge city – this seemed to deal with both brilliantly – still does. =)
Max Road Rash was a … Max Road Rash was a good game, but I think you look back at those times in your life, because they were the best times, so everything seemed badass in retrospect. I know listening to this back in my teens was the and its still good. Thats the way life is I guess you listen to music, hopefully that doesnt suck and it provides a soundtrack for your life. Awesome band.
Wow.
This band … Wow.
This band made the Road Rash game so much cooler on that 3D0 system. Too bad the system died by ‘95.
Road Rash brought me Paw and Soundgarden.
Too bad EA can’t get their head out of their and release killer games like Road Rash anymore.
I’m glad to see … I’m glad to see their still well liked. I bought the CD as soon as I heard Jessie on the radio. and for once, the whole album was great! Their second album was terrible though. they got rid of their incredible drummer and had a new producer. never heard from them again.
i first heard … i first heard dragline on the uri collage station they played it all the way threw i was blown away went out and bought it the next day i had never heard anything so honest and raw it was beautiful and i have never looked back to me one of the best albums ever made
I’ve gone through … I’ve gone through at least 3 copies of DRAGLINE, it just doesn’t get old for me. After 15 years, I guess it never will. Lolita is still my fave…. Death to Traitors was weak I thought. I haven’t listened to it in at least 10 years. Any one think I should?
PS I have friends from Lawrence, KS who absolutely HATE them. I think it’s funny. Maybe I shouldn’t be YOUR friend.
Ive never played … Ive never played road rash, i discovered this album by mistake in a used record store, i liked the dragline album cover, bought it/ best mistake of my life
I’m going to date … I’m going to date myself but I keep reading people say they discovered PAW through Road Rash. I remember when this song was brand new. I’ve been a fan ever since I first heard “Jessie”.
Discovered Paw … Discovered Paw through Road Rash as well – the only band like this that I liked for a LONG time. Just such such good music on Dragline. Never got into Death to Traitors as much though!
Got into PAW from a … Got into PAW from a brilliant review in Kerrang. I went down to HMV in Oxford Street / London and bought the only PAW album they had in the store ‘Dragline’. The album blew my socks off so i decided to read the review again. The review was for ‘Death to Traitors’. I have that album too and i like it a lot but there’s no guarantees that i would have bought ‘Dragline’ if i had heard ‘Death to Traitors’ first
Thats what you call a great mistake…
god these guys … god these guys were great. I discovered them through Road Rash on the 3do and bought Dragline, then Death to traitors. Wish these guys could have gone further. Really one of the best bands of the “grunge” era.
