      I love both Supercharger albums. I also strongly prefer their version of "Sooprize Package for Mr. Mineo" to the Mummies'. And is it just me, or does their song "San Bruno" have the same melody as "Surrender" by Cheap Trick?

      Glasgow's finest and very very underrated at the time. Gettin' more recognition now, now that 'Kraut'rock is de rigeur over here. annoying coz it seems to be a bit faddish. Coz its used in adverts. I hate the idea that the music we love and grew up with is selling washing powder and jeans these days. This album recorded and released on a very threadbare shoestring.

      Far and away my favourite is Supercharger. Prefer the 2nd album to the 1st actually.

      In terms of new bands.... that Gino and the Goons album on Total Punk is my favourite release of the year.

      It's sublime , but creepy......They were one of the first to popularize acoustic music , again.

      YEARS AGO , A FRIEND OF MINE HAD DEVELOPED A METHAMPHETAMINE HABIT . HE GOT FREE OF IT , BUT , HE COULD'NT AFFORD MEDICAL ASSISTANCE , SO HE HAD TO DRY OUT ON HIS OWN. HE WAS DELIVERING PIZZAS. WHAT MADE HIM MAD WAS ,HE'D GO TO ALL THESE FRAT BOY'S HOUSES , AND THEY'D ALL BE PLAYING WHATEVER THE FEMMES' RECORD WAS THEN , DOCUMENTING THE SINGER'S WITHDRAWAL FROM DOPE. IT MADE MY FRIEND MAD , BECAUSE HE HAD TO HEAR ABOUT A GUY WHO COULD AFFORD GOOD MEDICAL CARE , ALL THE TIME , AND HE HAD TO DO IT , COLD TURKEY.

      Lots of newer stuff too, like early White Fence and Ty Segall etc. But yeah, Randy Alvey and the Green Fuz were probably the first!

      Wildfang's LP , PRODUCED BY PAUL MAROTTA OF THE MIRRORS , falls under that heading , I guess. Ostensibly a Garage Band , they covered so many styles , it'd make your head spin.

      Wait, there are bands that aren't lo-fi, no budget these days?! Jaykay. I don't know what "qualifies" that, but Lantern from Philly just played here and it was seriously hands down one of the best R&R shows this college town has had in quite some time, not *just* for a touring act on a weeknight either. Total house show vibes.

      Whoever mentioned the Pack, yes!!!!!!!

      Cheers ChazDaddy! Good call, Bob Log III is brilliant, and Doo Rag too! I haven't heard much Guided by Voices but will check out more of their early stuff for sure.

      Awesome list Ben E! Actually many great lists here as usual. I would have listed almost everyone you did, I could add Bob Log III or early GBV.

      The Gories, The 5678s, Pussy Galore, early Blues Explosion, Guitar Wolf (their first album, Wolf Rock, was recorded on a walkman!), Ty Segall (especially his first couple of albums), Bloodshot Bill, The King Khan and BBQ Show, Mark Sultan, Dirty Beaches..

      Budget Rock = The Mummies and Jonny Manak & The Depressives are a great team.

      Lo - Fi = The Gories/early Dirtbombs are the best, period.

      Ty Segall's early stuff sounds really Lo-Fi

      Thee Oh Sees record with an old Tascam 388

      A lot of the S.f. 'Positive Destruction' bands are pretty Lo-Fi.
