The Morons were self declared as the "only band that never mattered" but as far as Albany history goes, that's pretty inaccurate. Started in 1979 and ended in 1982, the Morons have a pretty short catalog as far as their musical output. Similarly to The Verge, The Morons had a 7" and a song on the Hudson Rock compilation and that was about it as far as official releases. However, this lack of releases doesn't mean shit as The Morons were an embodiment of the Albany mentality that set the tone for the rest of punk in the area whether they knew it or not. This is snotty as shit, crazy catchy stuff that wouldn't be out of place on a Killed By Death compilation (much like The Tragics, who will be getting their own post soon). I feel like some members are in The Last Conspirators now, but I'm not really all that sure.
Tracklist:
- Suburbanite
- Changing Days
