I think Wally wrote them during the GB days but they really didn't fit.

Quite a jump to his vocals in quicksand or even the moondog material. <br /><br />I would like to bring up the original Civ vocals to start today. You can get a hold of most it on the intertubes. Apparently, Civ recorded the vocals while Walter was in Europe with YOT. He came back, hated it, then coached Civ on the new recording. There is quite a bit of difference between the recordings.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887130645674254933.post-24589543713709201952009-09-17T13:44:34.871-07:002009-09-17T13:44:34.871-07:00Thanx.

I didn't realize Moondog ...Thanks for the info. I didn't realize Moondog started in '89, and that Distance was written for that band. I'm no expert on post-GB bands, and had to rely on:<br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorilla_Biscuits<br />for some of the info here, which may be incorrect. According to the wiki page, Walter was writing material for the a new Gorilla Biscuits album, and Distance was one of the songs written for the album. I assumed the 3 unreleased live tracks from the live set (Distance, The Western, and The Man With No Money) were songs that would have been on the new GB album, had it been released, but were instead used as Moondog material. Luke playing drums for CIV was an error (i meant to say Sammy), so i fixed that.<br /><br />As far as CIV goes, honestly i've only heard a few songs (but i'm kind of interested now, so i'll check out that first album), and from what i heard, i didn't assossiate it with hardcore at all. When i think of '90s hardcore, i automatically think of bands like Citizens Arrest, Crudos, Born Against, Burn etc. Not CIV. I guess i kind of though of them in the same way i thought of Fugazi when i first heard them. Ex-hardcore members playing some kind of post-hardcore rock.<br /><br />I've also heard that all the Moondog recordings were being remastered and would be available again soon, and that a complete CIV discography was in the works. Not sure if either is out yet, but i plan on checking out both.Stormyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15232152432667506469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887130645674254933.post-6531460597315417582009-07-14T09:59:14.363-07:002009-07-14T09:59:14.363-07:00there are definitely early instrumental versions o...there are definitely early instrumental versions of "Distance" on the moondog demos that are floating around. from what i understand, walter wrote it for moondog but then GB played it as part of their set near the very end of their existence.<br /><br />however, it seems like the way walter has worked over the years is to just write songs (not necessarily for a specific band), and then those songs get plugged into whatever bands he is in at the time. this is why there are worlds fastest car songs that became rival schools songs etc etc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887130645674254933.post-79401836517786141402009-07-14T05:41:37.827-07:002009-07-14T05:41:37.827-07:00Distance was mos def a moondog song first ,since G...Distance was mos def a moondog song first ,since Gb didnt start playing the song before 90 or 91. the first time i heard it was at least when they toured europe in 91.but who knows...<br />also, i dont really see CIV being a rock band, that LP is one of the best hardcore records from the 90`s ,at times i like it better then start today. did Luke played for Civ? when was that?
