OLD NEWS-RUMBLE IN RHODOS - OWN ME LIKE THE CITY LP

What's better than a good indie band. Rumble In Rhodos is a five piece from Oslo, Norway, who knows how to put on the good jams. Im happy to be a part of their first fulllength entitled "OWN ME LIKE THE CITY". Their sound is eaten by energic indie rock, touches of no-wave, danceable post punk and marks of the abstruse underground. Bands on the sound virus, French kiss records roster mixed with bands as Gang Of Four, Janes Addiction and Fugazi can be a fine match.

The cd version is released by the big indie distibutor Tuba records.

GREAT REVIEWS FOR RUMBLE IN RHODOS

Check out RIR's review section for a bunch of reviews, both in norwegian and english. Reviews.

SHIVERING 7 INCH COMMING OUT SOMEDAY.

Shivering is a fine band from San Francisco, California. The mid 90's influential, Council records have released most of their record. Consisting members from ebullition-legends, Amber Inn and the recently amazingly husker du'ish band Bullets In. Musically, Shivering delivers great melodic punk rock ala, early washington dc/dischord sound. Classic bands as Rites of spring, Husker du, Naked Raygun, Gang of four, Lungfish have had a big influence on The Shivering.

Im happy to be a part of their last release ever. The record will be a co-op with my friends thomas aka glwdrk.com captain/firewalkwithme recs and spencers/into the hurricane recs. This will be extremely limited and awesome, 300 copies. Definately the three best songs this california based band ever made. Hopefully i will work on some other releases sometime 2006. BTW. Be sure to check out their new band, Bullets In.

"ANGORA STATIC" LP - WILD-ZERO/LILACSKY

Catch ANGORA STATIC newest record. Totally amazing noisy songs, abstruse but yet melodic and vital. You can throw melodic parells to bands as noise heroes Sonic Youth, the energy of Jesus Lizard and intricate rhytms ala Party of Helicopters. The bassist yanks and sings, one second close to Guy Pichetto then shouts as good as only David Yow does. The record is availeble torugh the sexy german FELIX aka WILD-ZERO records and LILACSKY. CD version trough www.enlightment.no

They have announced to play shows now and then, time will see. Check out Bobbi's other band meanwhile, SERENA MANEESH.
