If you believe local outsider artists reflecting the creative edge of the early punk scene are culturally significant, then the history of Razorhouse will matter. Razorhouse singer and lead writer, Mark Panick, formed The Bonemen of Barumba in the early 80’s when the Chicago punk/art music scene was a few hundred people at most; contemporaries at the time included Steve Albini’s Big Black, Naked Raygun, and The Effigies. When Steve Albini was a DJ at WNUR, he lovingly called the Bonemen’s first record (also a 10? EP) “Barbecue music from hell”. Four decades later Razorhouse’s “Songs About Bunnies & Crocodiles” is Mark Panick building upon and foraging poignant, forward leaning, personally storied art.
