RC5 - Gotta getaway (2004)


This is a gift from Captain poon, thank you very much, captain!
This is kick ass crusty rock 'n' roll in the same styles of bands like Zeke, The Hookers and The Supersuckers. Visit their Myspace.


Note: As you can see, I have been messing with my layout, hope you like it. This will be my last post this week, I wish you all a good week-end and a lot of fun in the blogosphere, cheers!

72blues - Said I Would (2005)


72Blues were a good time dirty delta rock n' roll blues band that went dog-gone strong on some rough roads for over 6 years. The band originated from Melbourne, Australia and featured Lizzy Ray on vox, Reggie Ray on drums (originally from Windsor/Detroit, also from Melbourne's highly acclaimed Konqistador), Ben Hall on bass and Grant Emery on guitar. 72Blues delivered no less than a stinging blend of down south and signifying honky rawkin-blues; celebratin' old time traditional music, swing blues, delta blues, rock blues and nailing it with original, contemporary pop sensibilities. This mob of musos hen pecked and scuffled a devilish blend of country-blues, swamp-blues, gospel rhythms, cotton field chants, gospel-blues and prison-blues. (from their myspace)

Wool - Box Set (1994)



Wool, with Franz and Pete Stahl, released their first full-length album 'Box Set' in 1994. Other releases are: debut EP, Budspawn ('92) and a live album ('95). They've also recorded a 7"split single with Kyuss. Expect an alternative sort of rock (grunge) which was very popular in the early '90s. They split up by the summer of 1996. Peter Stahl went on to play with Earthlings? and Goatsnake and appeared on several of Josh Homme's (Queens of the Stone Age) The Desert Sessions albums.

Are We Ape? - EP (2007) Re-Up

Finally, I'm back. Let's start with a re-upper. If you are familiar with the Matadors, then you should appreciate this little offer (less than 16min.). It sounds like the Matadors, but without the flamenco touch, it's a more twisted QOTSA/Fu Manchu sound. I don't know very much of this band, I do not even know if they still exist. Two members of Matadors now have a new project, namely We:Duo.
