Relentless Cookout was an original "new wave" band playing all the local Boston clubs in the 1980's - The Channel, The Paradise, Cantone's, Jumpin' Jack Flash, and of course the infamous Rat in Kenmore Square, along with many others.

• Human Sexual Response
• Robin Lane & The Chartbusters
• Aimee Mann before Till Tuesday, with Young Snakes
• The Neighborhoods
• Nervous Eaters
• Loose Ties
• Pixies

• Cavedogs
• Dinosaur Jr.
• Dumptruck
• Fools
• Fleshtones
• Lou Miami & the Cozmetix
• Mission of Burma
• The Neats
• Gang Green

How much or how little I put up here will depend on how much traffic or interest there seems to be.
So, if you remember this 1980's Boston band and/or if you have any interest in its music or history, send me a message, and I would be happy to add more songs and more info to the page.
