just a friendly reminder that for over a hundred years, pit bulls used to be referred to as “the nanny dog” and their main job was as babysitters.
- in temperance tests (the equivalent of how many times your kid can poke your dog in the eye before it bites him) of all breeds the most tolerant was the golden retriever. the second most tolerant was the pit bull. temperament evaluations by the american temperament test society give american pit bull terriers a very high passing rate of 82.6%, while the average passing rate for the other 121 dog breeds tested was only 77%.
- pit bulls are not naturally human aggressive. in fact pit bull puppies prefer human company to their mother’s two weeks before all other dogs.
- no spayed/neutered, indoor pit bull has ever killed a person.
- contrary to the popular myth, pit bulls DO NOT have locking jaws.
- approximately 6000 pit bulls are put to death every day, by far the highest number of any breed euthanized.
New MRR issue
The new issue of Maximum Rock N Roll (issue #357) has the Detroit scene report I wrote a while back published! Go and check it out!
“Heavy metal rules, man! All that punk shit sucks! It doesn’t belong on this planet, man. It belongs on fucking Mars! Madonna’s can go to hell as far as I’m concerned. She’s a dick!”
Moksha,the new LP from Midwest grindcore band Cloud Rat,dropped today,(yesterday?) and let me tell you it tops everything they’ve done up to this point.After two excellent splits in 2012 with emoviolence band Republic of Dreams and hardcore band Xtra Vomit,Cloud Rat start off the new year with a total banger.If you’re not familiar with Cloud Rat think a less technical Ed Gein with female vox and even more abrasive and dissonant.On Moksha Cloud Rat take the grind found on their s/t LP and fine tune it into a lean sonic assault on your senses.You can almost taste the anger and it tastes like napalm.Now get to downloading.And guilt free since the label is giving the download away for free.
