Rocket from the Tombs - The Day the Earth Met the Rocket from the Tombs (1975)
"Seventeen" by Rocket from the Tombs
Girly Machine, and many other of Ohio's Columbus punk scene, owe a lot to Cleveland's punk scene of the mid-70s. A lot of these bands released their debut recordings on the Datapanik label, a label that got its name from a Pere Ubu single. Of course, the fountainhead of the Cleveland punks was proto-punk band Rocket from the Tombs. Although Tombs never released a proper album, their 1975 bootleg recordings played an important role in mapping out the development of early punk music (especially outside of the New York scene). Rocket from the Tombs released a compilation of these recordings in 2002.
Here is the discography surrounding Rocket from the Tombs's debut album:
WMMS Live (1975 radio performance)
Ain't It Fun (1975 single)
The Day the Earth Met the Rocket from the Tombs (2002 compilation of 1975 recordings)
"Search & Destroy" by Rocket from the Tombs
"30 Seconds Over Tokyo" by Rocket from the Tombs
"Never Gonna Kill Myself Again" by Rocket from the Tombs
