Label: Amphetamine Reptile
Year: 1995
Two guys from the band Vertigo walk into a bar...in Minneapolis...and probably order a couple Hamm's. End of story.
Fast forward to those same two guys, still in a bar, still in Minneapolis, probably still drinking a couple Hamm's. But this time they are joined by their buddy Mike Phillips. This time they brought their instruments. And this time they belt out two pounding rockers in the grand tradition of Minneapolis Hamm's drinking, noise rockers. From Man Sized Action, to Replacements, to Cows, to Guzzard, to Janitor Joe, to Gnomes of Zurich, and on into present day bands like Blind Shake keeping the torch burning.
Honest to goodness rock music. Should be easy...but it's not, else more folks would be doing it. So, when you find it, go with it.
