Hard Attack/Dust

Hard Attack/Dust

Think the phrase "proto metal," and the usual suspects come to mind - Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, etc. But only a select few have known that an obscure Brooklyn, New York-based band, Dust, was one of the first stateside bands to crank their amps up to ten and let it rip. And now, thanks to a reissue of the group's two albums, 1971's self-titled debut and 1972's 'Hard Attack,' as a remastered (from the original analog master tapes) single CD, now many rock fans will finally discover the sonic proof.

Both albums were originally released on the Kama Sutra label in the early seventies. Dust was also the beginning of the three members amazing careers. Kenny Aaronson (bass) went on the play with everyone from Bob Dylan, Billy Idol, Joan Jett, The New York Dolls and the list goes on. Marc Bell - a.k.a. Marky Ramone was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame and receive a Grammy Lifetime Achievement award for his work with the Ramones. Richie Wise continued on as a producer with his partner Kenny Kerner, who went on to produce several platinum and gold records, including the first two Kiss albums (Kiss, Hotter Than Hell).
