"Intensified Bluebeard were a bunch of hick punks from Albany who'd bang on shit and chant whenever they got together to drink. The mastermind was a massive skinhead who loved stagediving on frail people at Ruthie's Inn. He worked cleaning up guts behind the meat counter at Safeway, and seemed to relish the job. Pro skater Jimmy Thiebaud was somewhat incongruously involved." -Aaron Cometbus, 2018
