Lost Sounds - Lost Sounds (2004)


Led by Jay Jay (aka Jay Reatard of the Reatards) and Alicja Trout (Clears, River City Tanlines), Memphis' Lost Sounds are a glorious mess of punk rock artsiness gone awry in all the right places. Their 2004 In the Red effort, simply titled Lost Sounds, is a punk rock dance party guaranteed to merrily demolish every piece of furniture in the room. But this paranoid rampage is a far cry from the faux-sexy bass'n'drum din pumped out by the likes of Death from Above 1979. "Those things they put inside me/ You know they make me nervous," wails Jay through a cacophonous din of twitchy surf guitars and stuttering keyboards. Elsewhere the band declares that the end of the world is, "worth a laugh." And you get the feeling they mean it.

Reatards - Grown Up, Fucked Up (1999)


Music to shit your pants to. The Reatards are no frills, unfiltered, budgetless garage punk and Grown Up, Fucked Up is the group's most biting, intense album.

Immer Etwas is the first full length release from this one man bedroom recording project turned full on five-piece live band. Nice Face have been turning out singles, comp tracks, and cassettes at a steady clip over the past two years and change. This LP is a solid thirteen tracks of drum-machine driven blown out hook-laden punk rock.

Electric Six- Fire (2003)


Electric Six are an alternative rock band from Detroit, MI. Their musical style varies on who you talk to. Some call them a Rock n Roll Band. Some call them a Comedy Band. Some of them classify them as Dance Rock. And no album gave off that vibe more than their debut album Fire.

Fire is Electric Six's critical acclaimed best album. Critics have given it rave reviews including Rolling Stone which called the album "The summer's most brilliantly demented party record."So if you like to party or dance or just want to try a band with a different flair. Give this album a listen. It includes my favorite song of all time Synthesizer.
