I know The Last were on Bomp, but I'm not sure if the Backlash label was Bomp related.
I also wasn't really paying attention until I heard my name so this may not answer the question at all.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:35pm
McGroovey:

@clarke it would be hilarious if they built a wall, because all the "Hoboken" light rail stations are actually on the Jersey City side of the line. They originally wanted to run the light rail through Hoboken as a streetcar, but the Hoboken city fathers said no, so they ran it around the edge, along an old frieght line.

Hi Todd -- Just throwing this off the top of my head, but IIRC, "Backlash" was just the label the Last used to self-release their early 45s before Bomp got involved.

McGroovey:

Ironically (kinda), routing the light rail along the edge of the industrial part of Hoboken spurred residential redevelopment in that part of town. Since that part of town is below sea level, our federal flood insurance is helping to pay for it, in a way. But someone in New Orleans would know all about that.

There is a Karloff documentary, Boris Karloff: The Man Behind the Monster (2021), streaming on AMC+ and Shudder; it's worth checking out. Accoding to family lore "Frankenstein" was the first film I vere sat still for. I was 3 and I became hooked on horror, especially Universal.

@clarke: Loves TheDamned seriously - but balancing their elements & identity always an interesting challenge. If frantic is the price of having Scabies - might be worth it... Compare their first album or TheBlackAlbum. Different & both indispensable I reckon... Not every Album by everybody is their best...
