➡️ Today, I'm hearing Strung Out for the first time! Tons of you urged me to take a listen to late bassist Jim Cherry's playing, and his work on "Firecracker" showcased a really effective take on using fast bass chords within a skate-punk style. Setting up the song with those lower-register intervals really supported the track with a beefy intensity and energy. I love the note ranges he chose: JUST low enough to thicken up the mix, but JUST high enough to hear a clear separation in his implied melodies. I discuss some of the music theory behind the song's progression, the subtle root movements in the bass line, and how this very dense arrangement kicks off 1996's "Suburban Teenage Wasteland Blues" with an epic bang. At the end, I also gave a little impromptu lecture on what I've learned reviewing punk songs so far... 😉🙏🏼🍒
