This began their Unmasked Era hit number 24 on the Billboard Albums chart, and it also had the title track in All Hell's Breaking Loose.

In 1985, The Replacements released Tim.
speaker_0HOST
This was the major label debut for Sire Records.
speaker_0HOST
It is regarded as being one of the most influential alternative rock albums of the 80s.
Rob DriesleinHOST
There's several acts that weren't huge that I do think push the envelope a little bit.
Rob DriesleinHOST
And for that reason, need to be in the replacements right here in the Twin Cities.
Rob DriesleinHOST
I think a very influential band for a lot of other bands into the 90s, especially the, you know, the alternative era.
Rob DriesleinHOST
Fantastic song writing from Paul Westerberg and those guys.
Damian AbrahamHOST
Like, were you guys looking at this as being like, "This is the lifestyle now?" Like, 'cause I know when Bill's on, it seems like that was very much instilled from Black Flag, like we just do this to do this.
Damian AbrahamHOST
Or were you looking at, like, I mean, personally, like bands like The Replacements and Husker Du and bands that were beginning to kind of like, I guess R.E.M. would be the biggest, but, like, dip their toes into kind of like trying to find a-
Stephen EgertonGUEST
The greater-
Damian AbrahamHOST
Yeah, that more mainstream success
28 MINS LATER
Stephen EgertonGUEST
You know, you get to live your life how you want, but I don't find any attraction in that.
Stephen EgertonGUEST
Or, you know, I've told this story before.
Stephen EgertonGUEST
The, the, the, you know, The Replacements, I saw them twice with, with Bob Stinson.
Stephen EgertonGUEST
Right.
Jeremy JudyGUEST
I feel so bad because it sounds like I'm slagging them and I'm really not.
Jeremy JudyGUEST
On a musical level, very comparable to a band like The Replacements and kind of like...
Jeremy JudyGUEST
Middle of the road, meat and potatoes, rock and roll.
Jeremy JudyGUEST
You know, American rock and roll.
Jeremy JudyGUEST
Whether that's your thing or not, you know, that's what it is.
Jeremy JudyGUEST
And, you know, like I say, I'm very much in the minority of people that I know when I say, like, the replacements never done anything for me.
Jeremy JudyGUEST
I was never a big fan.
Jeremy JudyGUEST
I don't know if they had any traction over by you, but they're definitely one of the, like... well-loved, heralded bands of, you know, of everybody, at least in the indie and, like, punk scene, The Replacements are one of those bands that are just like, oh, yeah, you know, who doesn't like The Replacements? And, you know, me...
Matt WelchHOST
We still haven't drank through all the booze that they've sent us.
Michael MoynihanHOST
There was a band in the 80s.
Michael MoynihanHOST
You're from Wisconsin.
Michael MoynihanHOST
So they're close by.
Michael MoynihanHOST
And he said, we never played a good show until they got signed to a major label.
Michael MoynihanHOST
And the label was like, can you play a sensible show? So they started playing.
Michael MoynihanHOST
And they were a good live band.
Michael MoynihanHOST
But before that, they were not a good
Tommy StinsonGUEST
Prob- probably preferable that way for you
Will HarrisHOST
... during the tour they went on with The Replacements.
Tommy StinsonGUEST
Y- yeah.
Tommy StinsonGUEST
Are you, um, are you gonna be running video too with this or just the, just the audio?
Will HarrisHOST
Easy enough to argue that Tommy Stinson made the right decision.
Will HarrisHOST
Uh, I, I'll run both, but if, if you don't wanna be on video, that's fine.
Tommy StinsonGUEST
Of course, The Replacements haven't really been a growing concern since about the time I moved.
Tommy StinsonGUEST
I'm kind of puttering around and stuff.
Mike ReissGUEST
No.
Fred ToucherHOST
Wait, you don't know any music from there, or you've never heard of the replacements?
Mike ReissGUEST
I think both, Hardy, but if I heard a song, maybe I would know the second part.
HardyHOST
Okay.
HardyHOST
sure.
HardyHOST
I liked it.
HardyHOST
What album by The Replacements should Mike listen to if he was to...
HardyHOST
Because this is not like the thing with... with Perry about Fugazi or Minor Threat.
Tony FletcherGUEST
So there were people like the, you know, I was around bands like the Liars and O Positive and Miracle Legion in New England and the Canals.
Tony FletcherGUEST
i was i was kind of aware of all of that then those bands schooled me in the replacements who somehow didn't get a proper look in in the uk and i mean yeah i would buy every argument we can continue this one afterwards uh in many ways the replacements are the in many regards the better band at a certain moment in time and i can understand why um so that i got a lot of education coming to the states and then it's like What do you mean you don't know the replacements beyond being a name? They're the better band.
Tony FletcherGUEST
It's like, right, school me.
Tony FletcherGUEST
So I'm always up for that.
Matt ZeiglerHOST
I have to think I'm pushing at least your boundary somewhere, maybe a few people at home.
Matt ZeiglerHOST
The song I am presenting to you for potential inclusion on the Cultist Creative Playlist is Bastards of Young by The Replacements.
Matt ZeiglerHOST
I think this is the quintessential young adult in America song because it sets up the phase post-childhood but pre-midlife crisis like no other song.
Matt ZeiglerHOST
And I do think there's an American aspect of this.
Matt ZeiglerHOST
So have you ever heard this song before? Do you know The Replacements? I have
Joseph MooreGUEST
heard of The Replacements.
Joseph MooreGUEST
I am going to confess.
Joseph MooreGUEST
That I am of the generation that birthed and rode the punk wave.
CraigHOST
Oh
RyanHOST
... and The Replacements and a bunch of cool bands, but yeah.
RyanHOST
I already had those.
CraigHOST
Almost guaranteed Blue Album was one.
