I don't think Amebix should even be in the same sentence as Jawbreaker. Unless that sentence is " Wow Amebix sucks in comparison to Jawbreaker."

I'm 29 and I still think Amebix is cool. Are they as good a band as Jawbreaker? Hell no. But just as, if not more, influential than them. So many bands that I love now trace their roots back to Amebix. Pretty important band, and simply dismissing them is pretty ridiculous.
And Reece, the first 45 seconds of "Drone" kinda sorta maybe sound like Amebix if I'm thinking about it really hard and squinting my eyes and I'm stoned. Maybe.
So, no, it doesn't.

The drumming is very Amebix and the production gives it the atmosphere of No Sanctuary.
I guess i was higher.

There is no context in which comparing Amebix to Jawbreaker makes any sense.

OOOOOHHH, well in that case you're obviously wise enough to pass judgment on someone your own age

I remember when I was 18 and discovered hardcore and became way too cool for all the punk bands I listened to. Now I'm 24 and kicking myself for getting rid of all those records.
