The GAVOONS / SS BOB split cd

Welp,Sideshow Bob is back with some piano-driven,vocal bending tracks ,from his home in the great Northwest of the USA,paired with a new band , some guidos from straight outta NYC,New York,playing the punk rock like you remember back in the old days.The Gavoons may look cheesy,but their core is punk as fuck ,look up the english translations of their first names (in Italian slang) ,for a real laugh! Real Eye-talian Bruddahs ,from da city . https://sluggishatapes.bandcamp.com/album/the-gavoons-ss-bob-split 

AUGUST SPIES - LP

In their only LP ,Massachussetts August Spies ,re-records a lot of earlier numbers and lays down some new anarchist punk songs.With covers of GG Allin and The Avengers, and Ashey on vox and guitar,this band is a punk force to be reckoned with.Veterans of the punk scene,they have opened for more big-name punk bands than you can count on your fingers(and toes!)Some of their finest moments are caught on this release,tho' some of these did have more punk furor on the original demo tapes.Ashey's mom was the cover model,and was apparently the coolest punk mom on the scene!This is the sound of anarchy! If you claim to be a true punk ,and you have not yet heard August Spies,I don't know how you can make that claim! Ashey is punk's "everyman" ,and his lyrics defend that notion. A required listen!   http://archive.org/download/AugustSpies-Lp/AugustSpies-MomAlbum.zip

THE 4 SIDS -demos

The 4 SIDS ,bring the old school punk sound from Massachussetts ,with a tinge of UK snarling,also evident in their cover song choice of "Kill" ,by erstwhile  1977 UK punk jesters , Albertos Y Los Trios Paranoias ,which leads off this 6 song demo cd,( on the Peel Sessions ,for Albertos Y Los Trios Paranoias, there is a track named ,"Sid's Song" recorded just 3 months before the release of their first single ,which may be a good choice for the 4 SIDS to cover on the next one! Maybe re-name it ,"4 Sids Song" !! that would be cool!) The rest of this demo is just as punk and cool,retaining that same UK sound throughout! Chris "Ashey" MacDonald (singer of August Spies) ,plays bass on this ,it's his latest band,and they will be doing a (spanish-language punk) song on next year's 30th anniversary tribute to "The International P.E.A.C.E. compilation" ,on the Wheelchair Full Of Sluggisha label.Until then ,check out this total anarchist, pogo punk band ,and jump around like a fool!    http://archive.org/download/The4Sids-Demos/The4Sids-Demo.zip

CHIHUAHUA ZYCANTAH

The first compilation of one of Justin (Horrordactyl)'s other bands ,Chihuahua Zycantah. Imagine if you will ,Chrome and the Butthole Surfers meet up with some squat-punk bands ,and they all collaborate with Crass on some Subhumans(u.k.) type tunes! Sound good? It does to me! Flux Of Pink Indians and The Dead Kennedys are covered and I'll let Justin fill you in on the rest:

this is the blurb for Chihuahuas : -

(We) played about 50 gigs on and off between 1998 and 2007 - mostly free festivals and squat benefit parties , Zycantah is according to legend a hallucinogenic laced pancake mixture/ Aztec drug torture concocted for fucking with your mind...rumoured to be a popular breakfast of Cthulhu, and the Chihuahua part comes from the great Ren, of Ren and Stimpy fame....
Band members - Martin Dyno - guitar and lead bits that sound like he knows what he's doing, backing vox ; Horrordactyl - vox,guitar and lead bits that that sound like squawking rabid creatures,synths and samples ; Brother Clunk - bass and kettle, backing vox (1999 - 2007) ; Thee Intolerable Kidd - drums and violin, backing vox (2002-2007);
Braincell - vox and mixing deskery (1998-2001); Jonny Fenderson - drums,23 and cthulhu (1998-2002); Kev - bass (1998-99) ; Jez - bass (1999)

FRED HOTH & BIG BED - Fish Rocks

A fine example of suburban home made punk rock ,of the 1,2,3,4 GO!!! style,which sounds as if they've been playing these songs for years,in other words ,Fucking Great!! ! This is Doug Boone ,Mike Smith ,and Brian Reed ,and someone plays bass on some of this too! These guys were also in the bands ,"Kindergarden Terror" , and "Pigtales" ,which is posted somewhere else on this blog! If you love kids playing slam-dancin',funny as hell ,punk rockin' songs ,then this is for you ( I know you would totally be into this ,Ashey!!) . A cover of Sonny & Cher's ,"I Got You, Babe" ,from this recording ,was featured on last year's massive 100 band compilation , "Popeil Punk / K-Tel Kore" ,also to be found elsewhere on this here blog! Plus they cover Devo's ,"Whip It" ,with funny results.And how can you not download this , with songs like ,"I'm Going To Move Into An Apartment With Ted Nugent's Mom" , "Phil Donahue Smokes Crack" , "If We Can Walk Together ,Why Can't We Mosh Together?" , "The Day They Kicked Lizzie Borden Out Of R.E.M." ,and other hilarious titles. And the album title ,does it have anything to do with John "Fish" ,from Record Bar?(later Tracks). And the lyrics are even funnier ,some border on GG Allin's foul mouthed librettos! Doug gave me this tape years ago, and I highly recommend it! I'm hoping one of the guys from this band will contact me,and maybe shed more light on this great lost Ft. Myers band!!

KAAGOOTAABAA - The Microphone Is Fucked

Some really weird,extremely lo-fi (crank it up,and listen hard!) strangeness ,sent in by an anonymous follower of this blog,maybe he will leave us more insight on this project,in the comment box ,this is what he said so far :
"Kaagootaabaa is a one man project with no intention of making you dance.
Strictly for fun, recording in a kitchen in good ol north carolina, heres The Mircrophone is Fucked.
p.s. the mic was seriously fucked but it sounded really cool to me so maybe others will too.
thanks sluggisha!!"

So dig this,if you can,I tried to improve the sound,but it was not possible. -G O D

THE TOURETTES -Hidden Keys To Loving Relationships

Another quartet of girls,from the Gilman St. scene,playing obnoxious punk rock!The singer sounds like she has Tourette's syndrome,which may account for the band's name.6 short blasts of anarchy,and girl on girl love.Their boyfriend's name is Jim,as in Beam.One of my favorite girl bands,and punk bands in general.Very exciting,makes me wanna slam dance in the pit in my living room!

JOE GLAZER-the songs of Joe Hill

This is great folk music from a labor activist and member of the Industrial Workers of the World(IWW),Joe Hill.as performed by Joe Glazer,on Folkways Records,1954.Great working class tunes,Food Fortunata says,"Perfecto! I'm now listening to Joe Glazer singing the songs of Joe Hill...would you post this on your blog? It's folk music, but more anarchy than punk for fucking sure!I bought a 10 in. ep of it. released in 1954. Joe Hill is a personal hero of mine.I'll send you a copy,if you're interested. I've covered many of this guy's songs. Framed by the gov't and executed in the early 1900's. what a man!" for more info on Joe Hill check here:http://www.joehill.org/ and here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Hill
