Rage Anger - Trying to Find an Obscure Album from the 90's
October 24, 2018 6:08 AM
I am trying to find an album I must have gotten in the mid 90's. I think the band may have been from the Philadelphia area but not certain of this.
If I remember correctly the album had a sepiatone cover. The music was largely acoustic guitar and very bizarre. I guess what would have been an early form of "freak folk".
For the first track on the album there is a spoken word comment about how CD's are so much work, in the past you would listen to the first side of a vinyl and then, if you were really hell bent on it, smoke a joint and flip the other side.
I can only really remember the first song which involved the singer screaming "Rage, Anger, Rage, Anger" and there was a verse that went "I don't like spinach. I don't like spinach. Spinach is your friend, but spinach does not taste good." Or at least that is what I roughly remember.
I've looked in all kind of song lyrics and band archives without much luck. Thanks!

I don't think it's him, but it sounds a lot like what Paleface would have done in the early 90s. Maybe investigate related artists?

From the description, it sounds like something Jandek would have done. He's not from Philly.
