Henry Rollins..Think Tank

I think this is a funny comical view of Rollins. I bought the CD becasue I thought it was of him rockin, I was wrong, it is of him rapping about everyday life. Anyone else heard this CD or have other Rollins CD.
 
I used to like him back in black flag and in rollins band up until the "end of silence" cd, then I think it all went to his head... I have a bro that loves his stuff tho...

personally I think it is more a rich guy who has time on his hands to bitch about meaningless stuff....
 
I like the early rollling band stuff the best... End of silence... if you like that, THEN check out stuff like Do It, Hard Volume, Life Time, etc... The Black Flag stuff is all unto itself...
 
Lol
 
nice is rollins band albumn... he was in another band before "rollins band" called "black flag"..

most likely either you will love them or hate them and just cause you like one does not mean you will like the other

Yeah, I heard black flag back when I skate boarded. It was kewl then. Maybe I should re-check it

I think that might have been around when it first came out if I am not mistaken :)
 
that was like the tail end of black flag and the beginning of rollins band....
 
yeah I went to the first one in 89- saw rollins there, jane's, etc... that was sweet... rage against the machine and tool were nobody and on the side stage (we already had the albumns)

I was like an 8th or 9th grader, LOL

LOL - maybe so... LOL
 
Didn't he win a grammy for best spoken word album?

Which isn't saying much, not like there was more than one person in that field.
Not many people produce spoken word. Unless you count books on tape.
 
just what is henry rollins so angry about anyways? i heard him on howard stern a while back and he sounded miserable as he trashed every musician more successful than he is. what could be so bad? he is fairly successful, rich and handsome.

Probably ingrained in him from an early age. He grew up a scrawny little kid who always got picked on. A high-school teacher (or coach?) finally got him into lifting. ...also, his best friend got killed in front of him, and the cops pretty much f'ed it all up, accusing him of the murder. (if I remember correctly. ...I've got a few of his CD's and books also.)
