TAD - Busting Circuits and Ringing Ears
So, the song "Potlatch" from TAD's 1990 release "Salt Lick" came up on my iPod a few minutes ago. I love this EP and have since I first heard it back when it came out. So I asked myself "Self, what ever happened to TAD? Is Tad Doyle still alive?"
I poked around online and found out that he IS alive and his current band is called Brothers of the Sonic Cloth (click here for their MySpace). Even more exciting is that a documentary on TAD called "Busting Circuits and Ringing Ears" (trailer above) was made back in 2008. Even more exciting that THAT is that you can watch the whole thing on YouTube starting here.
In closing, here's the video that got me into TAD in the first place...

Tad got overlooked from that scene, but was always among the more interesting. I think Green River and Skin Yard were among my favorites. He also sang at a pre-reunion Soundgarden reunion within the last few months, before Cornell got back on board.
ReplyDeleteI would have loved to have seen Tad singing w/ Soundgarden. Man I loved me some Tad and Soungarden back in the day.
ReplyDeleteP.S. That is pre-"Spoon Man" Soundgarden. Fuck you Spoon Man.
