I’m back with the 25th episode of Savage Kick… the show starts off by draggin’ you from the scum-infested streets with a set about LSD, then moves into lo-fi budget rock and stompin’ ’60s garage territory (think the Gories, Mummies, Larry & The Blue Notes, ? and The Mysterians), paying a quick visit to the land of greasy R&B (Screamin’ Joe Neal, anyone?), then into some more modern sounds (The Stems, The Insomniacs, The Fall-Outs, Billy Childish, CoCoComa) before veering off into demented slop (Menster Phip, Nervous Norvus, et al) and finally wrapping things up with a ’60s garage classic before shoving your ass back into the gutter from whence you crawled.

One-Man Band Special

A recent topic on one-man bands on the Shakin’ Street forum sparked the desire to feature a special podcast showcasing some of the best, trashiest one-man bands around, and there seems to be more of ‘em around now than there ever have been. Like ‘em or not, these guys are the epitome of demented, primitive rock’n'roll, so we hope you sickos enjoy this. A follow-up episode will be coming after the release of a couple of one-man band comps later this year (one on Squoodge Records from Austria and the other on Rock’n'Roll Purgatory from San Antonio, TX). OMB fans should also be aware of the “One Man Band Off” that’ll be happening as part of the Rurnt Fest in Jackson, Mississippi in early November. And if anyone knows of any one-woman bands, by all means, get in touch!
