Gary Floyd, leader of the groundbreaking Austin hardcore punk band Dicks, died today. Forming the band in 1980, Floyd flaunted the fact that he was both a gay man and communist, frequently performing in drag, barking open threats of murder to police and the rich in tracks like Bourgeois Fascist Pig, Pigs Run Wild, and their most famous song, an anti-police anthem Dicks Hate The Police. The music created by Dicks was one of the single most influential factors to the shape of punk rock to come, and is often mentioned as a primary inspiration by many influential artists to follow in the late 80s through the 90s. Listen to their 1983 album Kill From The Heart and really think about how they were doing this in fucking Texas, in the early 80s.
