Fireballs of Freedom

The Ballz and their dastardly deeds, done if you need them done, with sub-dirt cheapness. This site's their myspace.com deal and is kept much fresher than the other'n.
|
Early Humans (mp3s)
|
Early Humans: all the chops of Heroin, some of the jerkiness of Nation of Ulysses and dagg if I don't revisit their EP about once a month or so.
|
Ass-End Offend
|
Flathead/Missoula Lake-Core Dark Lords
|
Sasshole
|
Missoula Gal-Stomp Outfit. Now remarkably melodic!

Great band. No internet pres.
|
Oblio Joes
|
Missoula melody kings, dagg do they make me weep with joy.

Le Force
|
Wasatch Front Mettallic Bros who handle the classical assault with wild dexterity. Their enhanced, Tim Green-engineered second record, Le Fortress, is available in the catalog now! Do yourself a favor, BYU freshman, order it.
|
Japanther
|
Two earnest do-what-you-feel punks, one of them my brother Ian. While other Pratt Alumni are making coffee in ad agencies, these gents are out making their public art and music any place that will have them. It's a joyful ruckus!
|
The International Playboys
|
ZZ Top worship from the City of Brotherly Gardens. RIP!
|
The Pope
|
My Space page for "Papierz", as they are known in their native Bydgoszcz. Their music is a pretty solid ruckus for a couple of diminutive pretzel bakers.

|
Big Business
|
Jared (Whip, Karp, Tight Bros) and Coady (Broadcast Oblivion, Murder City Devils) new outfit.
|
Juanita Family
|
Just about the most awesome country outfit you'll ever lay eyes and ears uponst. Who'd've known that Lana Rebel had this much twang?
|
the Lights
|
Freaking LIGHTS! Just when you were happy resting on your rock and roll laurels, up walked Latte, Carwash and Gunny and helped you re-unthink your rock and roll paradigm, man. See also Factums and some other things.

Ex-Wickitran rockers, who mine the classic midwestern dude-core of yore. Wicked album art, wicked music, and wicked bros.

|
Volutunes
|
Volumen's official "fuck you" to itunes, it's damn near everything these insane-os have ever put to tape, hard drive or otherwise is available here for nickels on the dollar. I guess all you need is a badass programmer in your band, and the world becomes your oyster.
|
Total Fest Blog
|
Sick of Myspace's horrendous gifs and wack functionality? Longing for a semi-static website where you can just read some stuff? Well, look no further!
|
Miss Lana Rebel
|
Real deal Western style music that doesn't need any goddamn qualifiers. Sad, authentic and pretty as a prairie brush fire at twilight.
|
Red Fang
|
Portland thugs with a long-ass CV, that we think most notably contains Last of the Juanitas, Shiny Beast and Trumans Water. Sounds like a more metal, drunk Black Flag.
|
Vile Blue Shades

Utah ne'er do-wells who play wild, unhinged dance music.

|
Sublime Frequencies (label)

Exploring indigenous psychadelia! The label that released Bush Taxi Mali, Radio India, etc.
|
Konono No. 1
|
Nothing short of Congolese equivalent of Lightning Bolt, or Friends Forever. They carved microphones out of wood, and made their PA themselves, from scratch with recycled batteries. Just when you were getting all culturally superior, these dudes showed up and out-freaked our best. And they've been doing it for 25 years.
|
Supergirl and Romantic Boys

Beautiful electronic pop/dance/casio music from Poland. Retroactive, but endearing and unaffected.

Altin Village

Dresden's home to Altin Village, who organize shows, release music (Falcon Five, Japanther, Good Good, Parts and Labor, Bollo, Dragon Rapide, Murdock). So read Slachthaus 5 and get ahold of Marcel and Olli.

An ambitious site dedicated to a large swath of what we dig so much here. Any place with a banner advertisement for the Dove album is okay with Wantage! Not just for stoners!

This station is the one spot for probably 800 miles where you might be able to hear Ghost album sides on a Monday night. Their shit is totally together.
