Re: R.I.P. Blackie Onassis

Drummer for Urge Overkill. Details here.

I've always had an inordinate fondness for UO, even if some of their more affected songs kinda annoyed me. I guess I didn't realize Blackie's tenure with the band had been so brief, though I did remember that he wasn't on those first few recs. Anyway, sorry to hear of his passing.

I really like the Saturation album. Even thirty years later, I still enjoy it a lot. I wouldn't call it all-killer-no-filler, but its peaks are really high ones. And overall, it flows quite well from start to finish (not counting the unlisted noise-fest at the end). Rest in peace, Blackie O, and thanks.
