Man's Ruin 10"s - The best cover art but the worst music

Would any of the Man's Ruin records appeal to someone who doesn't like stoner rock? Everytime i'm in a record store and happen across one i go "oohh, this looks cool and then realise that it totally sucks and is some sort of Kyuss cover band.

i think the only thing I possess on Man's Ruin is Killdozer's The Last Waltz< /I> -- the stoner rock thing is just so unappealing and the attempts of some of the bands to be shocking, a big yawn.

Man's Ruin is like the new SST or something.

twenty years pass...
The only Man's Ruin thread as such! Personally I think they released a lot of good/weird stuff, stoner rock and otherwise:

...but reviving specifically to salute Frank Kozik, who founded it and who has unexpectedly passed.

[/i] I was on their promo list for a little while, got some good stuff — Fu Manchu, Electric Wizard, Melvins, Acid King, the first High On Fire album...

Tried to get that italic tag to close but it wouldn't work. Sorry!
