Taking their group name from a line in Bob Dylan’s 'Subterranean Homesick Blues,' fIREHOSE continued in the Minutemen tradition of breathtaking musicianship combined with caustic lyrical fusillades inspired by the writing of the Beat Generation and the erect-middle-finger indignation of the Blank Generation. However, with Crawford’s decidedly folkie bent insinuating itself into the mix, fIREHOSE’s songs began to expand into more traditional verse-chorus-verse songwriting symmetry. And although fIREHOSE never equaled the Minutemen’s output in terms of sheer audacity and emotional depth, Crawford, Watt, and Hurley recorded rock that was muscular, dense, and daring, along with being tremendously heartfelt. They never patronized audiences or comported themselves as 'rock stars'; they were instead the quintessential post-punk 'peoples’ band.'\" - SST Records\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eblack vinyl pressing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eoriginal release year: 1986\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emusic label: SST Records 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Firehose","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP","offer_id":41838831140954,"sku":"lp-15935","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/4542\/files\/firehouse-ragin-blackvinyl-1.jpg?v=1762286801","url":"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/products\/firehose-ragin-full-on-vinyl-lp","provider":"turntablelab.mom","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
