Also, ever listen to the Wipers, Mortte?

No. Black Flag is the only one I think I´ve heard a little. I don´t know why but Henry Rollins irritates me, specially in his solo career. He´s of course great guy and has an attitude and blahblah. Anyway I am going to check also Black Flag, because I´ve got also wrong picture of Minutemen (just because I hadn´t heard those great first albums). I am really glad I have now five weeks Holiday, so time to listen all great music!
This day I am going to spend all the great sixties/seventies wonders I have recently found like Kinks, Blossom Toes, Family & Fairport Convention albums. Finally I am going to listen Dylan´s Freewheelin as a whole too. Also I am going to listen some Pussy Galore again.
One band that came to my mind from Minutemen is Trumans Water from the nineties. Of course they´re not as great as their skills and not have as strong bass sound, but I think both have continued Beefheart´s tradition in a very great, interesting way.
