#16: The Wildebeests 45
THE WILDEBEESTS "Pointless" b/w "One & One"

You may recognize the song One & One -- it's already been released, on an LP comp and an album (both of which are impossible to find) and a 7" on SFTRI (which sounds like utter hell). It was one of my favorite DJ tracks, until during Wild Weekend a few years back, it skipped, and I picked the 12" up off the turntable and frisbeed it into the crowd. So we've remastered it, and included a catchy new unreleased track, the tin-can-trashy, ultra-garage screecher, Pointless.

Release date March 11, 2008!

7": $3.50702-68

 

#21: The Hipshakes 45
"I Don't Know" b/w "Want You Around"

Another furious doowop of punk rock dished out by these charming blokes from behind the chimney, up the nook & cranny, in wherevershire, sussextown, bloody blimey criminy England! If you know them you love them.

Release date March 11, 2008, just in time for their SXSW gigs!

7": $3.50702-67

 

#17: The Rippers 45
"It's Not a Place for the Men" b/w "Out of my Head for a Day"

Another killer, two more songs, even better than the first 45 we did for them! These Italians really know what rock'r'roll is. If you ever get the chance to visit Sardinia, you'll see -- when the gig is over, the drinks keep flowing and The Rippers hang around, in beerstained suits, jamming with their friends -- until the sun comes up.

Release date March 11, 2008, just in time for SXSW and their 1st US tour!

7": $3.50702-66

 

#15: Los Idiotas 45
"The Blob" b/w "Una Vez Tuve tu Amor" & "Dejame en Paz"

Two beautiful Spanish idiots, former transplants to the frigid swamp known as the Netherlands, and now back in their tortilla-munching motherland. Side A was recorded in Amsterdam and brings me straight back to a 1998 MOTARDS gig. Remember them? The B-side was cut in Spain and has more of a Zeke/Dwarves sound. Don't forget the accent on the 'e'!

#20: The Penetrators 45
"Teenage Lifestyle" b/w "Gotta Have Her"

Syracuse's Kings of Basement Rock are back! That's right, The Penetrators have been busy in the studio recording an album for Slovenly for which we'll tease you with a limited 45. Old songs, new recordings, still rocking!

Strictly limited to 1000 copies -- both tracks are on their upcoming album on Slovenly, so when this one is gone, it's gone!

#14: Billy Childish & the Musicians of the British Empire 45
"It Should Be Me" b/w "Loray Head"

Billy Childish & company were in Spain to record in el Doctor Explosivo Jorge Explosion's studio, and I went to Madrid to see them play. At the gig, I asked Jorge how he was doin', and he said, through an ear-to-ear smile, "Great! I've got Billy Childish in my studio!" Duh! A few minutes later he came to me with a beer and said, "so would you like to release what we're recording?" DUH!!

As usual, Childish does no wrong. These tracks are a little different from what you might expect -- accompanying the usual raw garage-guitar sound of Childish are some melodies that remind of noise-pop bands like HENRY'S DRESS.

#19: Ape City R&B 45
"Dyn-o-mite" b/w "No.1 Phantom Killer"

Seattle's APE CITY R&B whips out another killer 45 with songs featuring the word "baby". Thrasher magazine sez it as good as I could:

"How about a heaping helping of muy primitivo slop, served up on a 7" slab by Ape City R&B? The lowest of lo lo-fi, this one is a shit stomper in garagified vein of the Gories (but even more stripped down) or for a more contemporary comparison something like BBQ"

7": $3.50702-62

 

#13: Ridiculous Trio 45
"Tv Eye" b/w "Not Right" & "IWBYD"

YEAH!! They're back with three more instrumental Stooges cuts played with drums, tuba, and trombone. Still genius! Hear it here...

(I tried to get them to do some other covers -- I suggested maybe MC5, or the Sonics... but the answer was NO -- the Ridiculous Trio plays only Stooges covers! Truly ridiculous.)

7": $3.50702-61

 

#18: Slab City 45
"Tall Can" b/w "Milwaukee's Beast" & "Hyna"

"SLAB CITY is a Border Town Band from Imperial Valley California that consists of a couple white dudes & a coupla brown dudes. With the stench of the Salton Sea and minds as polluted as the New River, Slab City will drink all your Caguamas and destroy your Pachanga."

That's how these torta rockers describe themselves. I'd compare 'em to the Germs, the Spits, and AssCobra-era Turbonegro. Their debut vinyl, and it's a killer!

Featuring everyone's favorite filmmakin' tour manager, Ernie, who has been seen recently behind the keys for The Spits.

7": $3.50702-60

 

#12: The Masonics 45
"When You Cry At Night" b/w "Where's Johnny Moped Now?"

Two brand new tracks by this London 'sooper'group (with one Headcoat, one Milkshake, and one Wildebeest/Kaiser, if I'm not mistaken). Recorded in Espanya by Mr. Dr. Explosivo himself, in his shiny new vintage studio with the funny Italian name. Hear it here!

7": $3.50702-58

 

#11: Los Pataconas 45
"Spider-man" b/w "Mi Carro" & "Moro Maclet"

Debut vinyl by these paella-munching Mediterranean surfers. A fine Valencian rendition of one of my all-time favorite Americanadas on the A-side, with the flip sporting one original and one cover. Great surf with a distinctly Spanish flavor. As seen at Funtastic #2! Hear it here!

7": $3.50702-57

 

#10: Hollywood Sinners 45
"Wild Man" b/w "Bloodhound" & "Little Girl"

Three heavy 60s punkers from these Madrileņos! One original on the A-side ("Wild Man" - it's a new one!) and two revved-up covers on the flip. Big full sound that will knock your dancing ass on the floor! Hear them here!

7": $3.50702-56

 

#9: Low Point Drains 45
"Rock Your Ass" b/w "Baby's Night Out"

What most impressed me the first time I saw the LOW POINT DRAINS is that one song sounded like THE OBLIVIANS, the next sounded like LO-LITE (and if you don't know them yet yer missin' out!), and the next like fuckin DISCHARGE. No shit! *And* the dude was wearin' a wig. I've been tryin' to release something by these guys for years, so I'm proud to present the 2nd vinyl release from this Dutch garage-trash terrorism trio!

7": $3.50702-55

 

#8: The Anomalys 45
"Black Hole Blues"
b/w "Nat Approved"

THE ANOMALYS are an Amsterdam rock'n'roll duo and they like, KICK some SERIOUS fucking ASS and shit, dude!

Ok, seriously now, both sides of this little 45 will put holes in both your speakers and both of your ear drums, guar-ron-teed. Feacherin' Bone of AMOKS/ LOOCHES/ int'l-r'n'r-DJ-playboy fame and Memme of DEXTER/ FRANCO FORMICA, who pummels his kit mercilessly into submission.

MP3s for listenin' are on their site, www.anomalys.com

#6: Hipshakes 45
"Ok Alright" b/w "In the Summer" & "Never No More" single

"You can't leave me all night alone" b/w "I got my mojo working" single

(These are the Italian RIPPERS, not to be confused with the Spaniards of the same name!)

I'm still not sure how 60s garage found these Sardinians, or how I found them, but they are definitely Europe's best garage band! Two exclusive cuts. x-SLEEPWALKERS.

out now!

#4: Reigning Sound 45
"I'll Cry" b/w "Your Love" single

New recordings of "I'll Cry" and "Your Love" -- with organs, more in the soulful, catchy sound of Time Bomb High School than the garage punk Too Much Guitar.

OUT NOW!!
