TODAY IS THE DAY : I Bent Scared

TODAY IS THE DAY : I Bent Scared (Amphetamine Reptile Records 1993)

Pressé à 1000ex, ce 45T (transparent et vert svp!) est la première sortie discographique de TITD.
Deux titres qui pourraient être ajoutés à la réédition de Supernova, premier album du groupe (à cette époque Steve Austin n'avait peut être pas envisagé de changer de musiciens comme de médiators).

A. I Bent Scared (4:41)
B. Come On Down And Get Saved (5:07)

BOXCAR SATAN : Crooked Mile March

BOXCAR SATAN : Crooked Mile March (DogFingers Recordings 2001)

"Boxcar Satan are the sound a dumptruck makes as it unloads all over your convertible - while you're in it - and you laugh hysterically at the cruelty of it all. There's a heavy smell to it; it's gritty and chunky and it really makes you want to shower. Infused with blues, punk and miles of crunchy rock guitar, songs like "Hard Time," "Sterno" and "Snake Oil" will make you pick up that bottle and want to make love to it all night long." -- Ink Blot Magazine

BLACK SNAKES : Crawl

BLACK SNAKES : Crawl (Radium 1988)

Black Snakes ne pouvait pas venir d'une autre ville que New York.
En 1987 Darin Lin Wood ('68 Comeback, Blacktop, Fireworks), Jack Natz (Cop Shoot Cop, Lubricated Goat), Richard "Hardcore" Kern & Patrick Blank (le seul inconnu du groupe!) enregistrent un des disques les plus importants de l'histoire de la musique.
Nourris de circonvolutions jazz et des grooves moites rescapés d'Exile on Main Street, les américains attaquent le Rock & Roll par sa face la plus aride: le Blues.
