Although Greg Ginn's record pronounce SST was, early on, associated with the angry, overamped guitar claptrap of SoCal hardcore (some of which came courtesy of Ginn's have band Black Flag), SST was likewise recording bands that pushed the limits of hard-core. Bands care the Minutemen, Universal Congress Of, and especially Saccharine Trust joyously tossed in chunks of '70s progressive rock, van jazz, and funky kicks and pops into a grudge already percolating with sound(ish) alloy riffing, shouted vocals, and extreme volume. Not all of the boundary-pushing that Saccharine Trust did was sound (in fact, some of it is right-down awful), just when they kept their propensity toward grandiose intemperateness in hold, they were a pretty formidable proposal, especially live, and recorded at least one indispensable record, 1986's We Became Snakes.


Formed in the early '80s by Joaquin (aka Jack) Brewer and guitar player Joe Baiza, Saccharine Trust metamorphosed from a disharmonious, noisy, anti-rock quartet into a more sophisticated, just silent jaggy and noisy rock-jazz band. Frequently, the band's "songs" were tractor trailer or whole improvised victimisation a introductory riff or simple drum shape for guidance, rapidy expanding into unmapped territory. Not the most important band to emerge from Los Angeles in the other '80s, Saccharine Trust is interesting for incorporating varied textural elements into a genre that was defined by volume and simpleness. This stripe took risks that many of their SoCal brethren would ne'er have dreamed of taking. This, however, does non make Saccharine Trust better than their peers, simply different, and a slight more than challenging. By the other '90s, Brewer started his possess band called, large surprise, the Jack Brewer Band. Joe Baiza formed the fine, ill-scented, and exciting Universal Congress Of.
