The Adolescents - The Blue Album
This time let’s take a step away from late 70’s New Jersey and into early 80’s southern California with the 1981 album from The Adolescents, which I still don’t really know the name of. Is it just Adolescents, is it The Blue Album, does it have a title? Who the fuck knows. It’s really good, and that’s all that is important.
Sometimes an album comes into your life at the right time, and completely changes the direction of your musical taste for a few years. This album is one of those for me, and led to me spending a lot of my late teens, into my early 20’s, watching punk bands in Elks lodges, garages, and basements. There’s maybe 7 or 8 albums in my life that have made me think “what the fuck was that?” and really influenced my taste or opinions from that point on, and this makes the cut in that department. I wouldn’t consider myself “punk,” I think anyone my age still claiming allegiance to a sub culture needs to do some deep self reflection, but at this point I’ve been vegetarian/vegan for about half my life, and have definite opinions on consumerism, the environment, and I vote very left. I think apparently somewhere along the line the music must have influenced me, but I also listen to a lot of country, and have some white trash tendencies, so who the fuck knows. It’s the chicken and the egg.
Going into high school I was already becoming a music nerd on a pretty base level, I knew a lot about Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Sabbath, AC/DC Nirvana, Motorhead, etc. I was starting to branch into punk territory by the end of 8th grade, with Rage Against The Machine, the Sex Pistols, Ramones, but nothing really deeper than that. Freshman year of high school one of my friends (who knew about a lot of punk I didn’t, and over the next four years would introduce me to a lot of my defining music from that era) was trying to get me into 80’s hardcore, and trying to get me to start a band with him. He was big into The Adolescents, and showed me their first album one day, I don’t really remember exactly when, but that’s not really important. I recognized that one song from Tony Hawk, thought it was kind of good, and didn’t think much else about it. After a few listens though, it really grew on me. It wasn’t like the punk I’d been into before, it was angrier, faster, had wild guitar solos and great riffs (something the Ramones had been lacking for me, coming from a kid who loved Angus Young). It set me down a path into more 1980’s hardcore, into Black Flag (who I would claim to be my favorite band until into my early 20’s), Circle Jerks, Minor Threat, Bad Brains, into the late 80s, with Youth of Today, Judge, Cro-Mags, Agnostic Front, Gorilla Biscuits, Fugazi, then into more current stuff with Ceremony, Have Heart, Righteous Jams, Rival Mob, Limp Wrist, No Warning, back to the early stuff with the MC5, Stooges, New York Dolls, and branches off all these and so on and so on. I don’t have the biggest record collection, maybe 300 with a big stack of 7” records to go with, but probably a solid 1/3 of it is punk related, not to mention the cds that ended up in my car, or slow as hell circa 2006 downloads. This album was the fuse that set off a lot of my musical journey, to steal a phrase from Rattle and Hum. And yes, you can listen to punk and still like U2.
I remember buying this record at an Adolescents show in 2006. 80’s hardcore revisionism was at it’s peak. American Hardcore had, or was just about to, come out, along with a handful of other documentaries. You could find Minor Threat shirts at hot topic. A lot of bands were on tour. Henry Rollins was on IFC. It was a good time to get into all this stuff. Me and a few of my friends got a ride from one of our parents (very punk) about 2 hours away to the city, and went to my first punk show that had over 30 people. They were fucking great, the openers not so much. The band was lacking in original members, but we didn't care. I guess the record is some 25th anniversary edition, in a swirly silver vinyl. I made the mistake of buying it at the start of the show so I had to shlep it around the whole time. The last track of the album has some sort of a pressing mistake, and sounds kind of muffled and fuzzy, but I still played the crap out of it. I still have the flyer from that show framed, and like the Boss, hangs above my stereo.
Times change, you grow up, friends grow apart, life happens. My friend who showed me this album went from being my band mate and close friend, to an old friend I see around town maybe once a year. We went to different colleges, changed a little, got different friend groups, everyone has this story. I don’t listen to as much punk as I used to, I had the opportunity to see the Adolescents last year, and figured I’d catch them next time, I had to work the next day, it was kind of far away, etc. A few days later one of the last original members, Steve Soto, passed away. In 2014 (I think? Maybe 2015) I got a chance to see Rikk Agnew, and he was really good, but I still regret skipping that show.
The Adolescents were founded in 1980, in Fullerton, California. I know Tony Cadena (singer) was only 16 when this album was recorded, Rikk Agnew would have been early 20’s, not sure about the rest, but they’re still a young band. Some of the songs reflect this, some of it hasn’t aged well (“I cannot live in a world this gay” for example), but the musicianship is still top notch. This isn’t The Germs, these guys are tight, fast, and can play well (maybe a bad example since the Germs guitarist would later replace Agnew). They would soon break up, and get back together for a few years in the late 80’s, but this album is their peak. It’s one of a kind, no other punk album really sounds like it. The guitars have a lot of treble, not Minutemen/JFA treble, but it’s definitely part of the vibe. The vocals have a small amount of reverb on them, which really adds something when Cadena pushes himself a little harder. It’s not a surf punk record, but you can tell there’s some so-cal influence there. It’s hard to describe what is so great about this record. It’s just straight up punk rock, nothing ground breaking. It’s like Johnny Thunders, but a little poppier, tighter, and a little angrier. So what? A lot of punk is like that. They just did it that much better than everyone else was.
There’s like 13 songs on this album, so I’m not going to review all of them, just the highlights.
“Who Is Who” is the second track on the album. The first song “I Hate Children” is okay, but a little immature and simple. The second song cranks up the reverb, and really gets the album going. It’s quick, angry, and has a quick Johnny Thundersy guitar solo.
“Kids Of The Black Hole” is the 5th song on the album, and is an epic (by 80’s punk standards) five and a half minute long ode to a party house. It starts off slow, the tempo ramps right up, and stays there for 5 minutes. There a siren sounding lead guitar line over the verse, it doesn’t ft fit with anything else on the album, but it sounds great. There’s a great bridge section that goes into another fantastic Agnew solo. I don’t know if he invented the octave chord (I don’t know what the technical name for it is, basically you play a power chord and mute the middle string to make an octave), but it’s all over this record, unlike any punk record I can think of before, and it appears on a lot of records after. If you can’t tell, Rikk Agnew is one of my favorite guitar players ever, probably in my top 5, and I think criminally underrated as far as punk guitarists go.
“No Way” is the 6th song. I don’t know why it’s so good, there’s like 20 words to the song, they’re immature as hell, haven’t aged well, but the music is really fucking good. The intro guitar solo sounds like an outtake from “Search and Destroy.” It’s a quick 2 minute song, but packs in the energy and music of a song twice as long. Sometimes you can’t explain why something is good, it just is. How exactly does the sun set? How exactly does the posi-trac rear end on a Plymouth work? It just does.
“Amoeba” is the 7th song. Now, while this is a great album, some of the songs on it are just okay compared the the rest. They’re still as good as any other punk from the era, but it’s this three song, ten minute stretch that sets it apart. I can't think of any other punk record with a three song run this solid. “Amoeba” goes right into full speed, has more great Rikk Agnew solos and riffs, tells the story of a scientists looking at some sort of a strange amoeba. Who the hell knows what it means? Everyone thought they were singing “Tony Haaaawk” in the background. It fast, tight, a little silly, and probably the best song on the album.
“Creatures” the last song, is just a quick angry sub 2 minute rant about not fitting in and jerking off. It’s really catchy, frantic, and one of the simplest songs on the album. It has a solo of just octaves, he’s not even playing single notes for solo’s anymore, just rubbing it in that “yeah I’m coming up with this thing punk bands are going to rip off for 20 years.”
Final thoughts:
Favorite song: “No Way.” I know I said “Amoeba” is the best song on the album, and it is, but “No way” is a sentimental favorite. I’ve spent way too much time playing guitar along to this album, I still run through it occasionally (and yes it is kind sad for someone who is almost 30 to still play guitar along to punk records), and I’ve never been able to get the solo right. It’s just a really fun song.
Least favorite song: “Democracy.” There’s nothing political on this record really, so one political song is kind of out of place. They would go into it more with their next album Brats In Battalions  but it just doesn’t really fit with the other songs about scientists, girls, drinking, or jerking white tears.

I apologize for not posting, I had some troubles and I have been really stressed out lately (now I have these twitches and spasms in my neck). It's just too much going on right now and I am not really keeping up. My creativity has mostly gone bye-bye, but it should get better soon.
If someone wants to talk, throw shit on somebody, or just share a meme, feel free to send me a message

Natasha never really comments on Thor and Bruce's relationship, but no one ever heard about that guy who hated on them again.

Thor says 'I love you' to Bruce every time someone outsmarts him, to remind him he doesn't have to be the smartest to be loved.

Therapist AU
,,Gay," murmured Loki as he slipped into his new therapist's room.
Doctor Bruce Banner went red. ,,I am comfortable with myself."
,,I am sorry, he meant me,"said his patient's brother, in sync with the doctor.
Now they were both red.
,,You two have a good chemistry!" yelled Loki from couch.
Thor threw a quick look on the therapist.
,,I am so sorry, I let him watch Sherlock and now he thinks he is a detective."
,,I don't think I am a detective. I am just better a deductions. Don't worry doctor Banner, my brother is single too."
Thor wasn't sure, how Loki heard him.
,,Well, his skills are impressive," laughed doctor nervously. ,,We are done in sixty minutes."
Doctor Banner quickly closed the door and tried to focus on patient. But, well, it isn't very easy, when your patient is grinning at you, because he knows, that you just fell in love with his brother.

The first time Bruce didn't fall
,,I got you, Banner."
Bruce looked up, full of disbelief and hope. He almost fell off plane. He knew, he would not die. Probably. But... no one ever caught him. And here was Thor, holding his hand. His love for that man just grew. 
,,Don't freak out, plane won't be able to keep us in air."
It was easier to say than to do, but Bruce tried his best. Thor pulled him back in the plane. They were so close... it would be enough for Bruce just lean in... Bruce had no time for thinking. He cupped Thor's face in his hands and kissed him. 
,,Thank you."

My favourite headcanon about Thorbruce is Thor making up nicknames for Bruce in Norwegian, so Bruce doesn't understand and has to Google it and then he blushes so hard, because Thor is a lovesick puppy
