30 Years Ago: UPSIDEDOWN CROSS release their debut LP

Formed by members of KILSLUG, UPSIDEDOWN CROSS released their self-titled debut LP on this day in 1991 through Taang!
J. Mascis (DINOSAUR JR) is the drummer on this record.

The Upsidedown Cross record is one of my favorite records I've ever played on. I was flirting with real punk rock. Those guys were serious degenerates - not like anyone I'd ever met. I'd previously played a gig with Gerard and G.G. Allin, which was a similar experience but also not so great. It seemed good in theory, but when you're on stage and he's shitting... it's just not that pretty. Maybe I'm not as punk as I thought I was. But with Upsidedown Cross, I just went there and recorded and didn't hang out with the guys as much, so it was a great experience. I loved the record too.
