SST


sst records
The awesome SST Records label.

There was quite a long period of my life when 99% of all the music I listened to was produced by just one Southern Californian record label - SST.

Along with Black Flag (SST founder Greg Ginn's band) they released albums by Minutemen, Hüsker Dü, Meat Puppets, Saccharine Trust, Sonic Youth, Bad Brains, Descendents, fIREHOSE and Dinosaur Jr among others.

There was no need to go elsewhere really...

  1. I'm with you all the way on 99%. After 'Streets on fire' came out (vhs of course) we would spend years hunting down the soundtrack.
    Legendary music.

  2. I've had several fantasies about winning the entire back catalog....
