Destroy All Monsters - part 4; Live 1985

These two shows are from the final period of the band and shows they were still writing new songs. After 1985 they faded away and returned in the early 1990s as Dark Carnival. No Stooges songs here but a  Hawkwind cover fits in nicely. Both shows are audience recordings but the sound quality is good.

Destroy All Monsters - part 2; Live in 1981 + 1983

These shows are from the middle period of Destroy All Monsters and shows they wrote a lot of new songs in that time period. Both shows were recorded from the audience so the sound quality is raw but still worth a few listens especially to hear the songs that never got released. My favorite D.A.M. song is Spider.
