bassholes - blue roots

RAW AS FUCK, BLOWN OUT, TRASHY BLUES PUNK DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THE  BASSHOLES!!!!!!

seriously, if you're into THE GORIES, JOHN SPENCER BLUES EXPLOSION, THE OBLIVIANS, CHEATER SLICKS or 68 COMEBACK like me......... YOU NEED TO HAVE SOME BASSHOLES IN YER LIFE NOW!!!!!!

any of their albums are worth grabbing, but their debut lp from '92 on IN THE RED, BLUE ROOTS, might just be their best.........

fatal figures - caterwaul lp

rising from the ashes of the legendary garage punkers THE BLOWTOPS is BIG NECK RECORDS' newest noisy rock n roll sensation 
THE FATAL FIGURES........

channelling the deconstructed rock of PUSSY GALORE, the swampy noise of CHROME CRANKS and the evil b movie horror of THE CRAMPS, FATAL FIGURES have recorded one hell of a eerie, fun, raw noise punk slab of vinyl entitled CATARWAUL.....recorded by JIM DIAMOND, the new lp could've been a CRYPT RECORDS classic back in the day, but as it stands in the middle of the garage rock deluge of the present day, it blows the doors of all those other simple retro tinged lps.......

..... FATAL FIGURES aren't a household name yet, but you'd be amiss not to check their new album out.....very recommended....

LISTEN TO THE ENTIRETY OF CATERWAUL below.......
   and go buy it now from BIG NECK RECORDS.......



watch FATAL FIGURES live below......

drunk pixels - useless eaters // party bat

i've been quite a fan of everything the USELESS EATERS have released, so it was a treat to finally get to see them live (and at my favorite bar in the world, the empty bottle...) opening up for them was local chicago garage punkers PARTY BAT (a band you need to keep an eye on....)


so in case you missed the fun, watch highlights of the show below (via our friend, sadly panda)
