Outa Commission - Life is a Disease That Kills Everyone (2006)


Ah yes, the band that brought the world some Albany punk staples. I remember seeing the pre-Outa Commission band Victims of Hunger and not thinking very much of them, but with a few lineup adjustments they gave it another go and the change was like night and day. Adding madman Connor as the vocalist definitely gave them the edge they needed, with his natural stage presence and unique sense of humor (remember watching him eat a lit cigarette during a set before), combined with Dan playing as fast as he could and only getting faster, and Party Shirt doing what Party Shirt does. Shared the stage with these weirdos a lot, and it was always a pleasure and I'm pretty bummed I missed their last show and the reunion that followed years later. Really don't even know what to compare them to, but it's fast and it's pissed.
