Jesus Lizard plus Snapcase = Unsane. One might think so, but Unsane is more than a near-indescribable mixture of Noise Rock and Punk/Hardcore. Unsane is a wqay of coping with big city life yet not leaving the city. It is a soundtrack to a city that doesn’t care. And it is the child of Chris Spencer - whom we interviewed this week for you pleasure!
Okay, admittedly I am a 90s kid when it comes to music and that surely shows in my love for Unsane as this band always had a certain flair of dangerousness about it. Unsane was dangerous and scary without being silly or dumb. Their really inimitable covers are product of a love for horror and crime. Their sound was always uniquely hard and edgy, and Chris’ voice is something you will not forget in all its intensity. These are some of the things, Chris and I talked about in a little over half an hour. Enjoy this new episode of the VoScasts!
Unsane was the first show I ever went to. My best friend and I were 14 or 15 years old and we wanted to see the Local band Gruntruck and Unsane opened up and it was fucking killer. It was '91 or '92.
It was hilarious because it was an all-ages show but we were the only teenagers there and everyone looked scary even though we were totally grungy kids - I remember everyone looking at us like 'are these two old enough to be out in the city?'
The venue was the OK Hotel and it was absolutely quintessential Seattle 'grunge'.
Kick ass story. I saw Unsane in 91 at The Casbah, it was the best.
Great band.
Heavy as fuck.
