Your next favorite band the
STATUES OF LIBERTY

Power rock with a kick in the teeth,
BROTHERS FROM ANOTHER
send "Whiskey & Women" - Mixin' big sounds, late night growls and tons of guitars. More gun owner than stoner, look for them to be featured on America's Most Wanted or Cops.

A bit quirky and mad,
FORD & FITZROY
send "Canyons" - Interesting stuff for getting unhinged and throwing down... way down. Picture Pavement versus Dinosaur Jr in a battle royal to see who gets to hang out with Dorian Gray. If you dig that post punk sound this one's all you.

Hardcore heavies
FED UP!

Bi-polar rockers

Hell yeah –
THE POINTS
send me "S/T" - garage rock thats out on the town and gunning for you. Solid songs schooled in the Ramones and all those wasted punks that paved the way. Future retro is the wave of the day and these boys are flying.
