Don't feel bad. I only heard about them a couple of years ago, and I'm past 60.

Juniper Moon – El Resto De Mi Vida + Singles Y Rarezas (1999-2003) on Elephant records

Spanish indie pop band that ran the gamut from sparkling popgaze to bubblegummy punk-pop

Been there. Had to watch Wicked. Life comes at you pretty fast and you have to make some sacrifices.

Fust - Big Ugly

If Southern Rock with songs about living in small town is your thing then this is the album for you.

Disturbing album cover!

I bought this hoping it would not be as brickwalled as the cd which hurts my ears. I think it’s maybe a bit less but no great shakes which is a shame as it’s a good collection of songs.


$9.99 plus $6.50 or so in shipping from eBay

j'cuuzi

Finally added this one on lp.

$22 through deep discount on eBay

To me this is the pinnacle of britpop

Finally it’s here. Managed to get one for $43. It’s a nice package..double gatefold…nice booklet…Listening to the lp of outtakes. What a joy. They got to do this for 12 golden country greats, mollusk and white pepper.

nice find for $43
I agree, I hope they do expanded editions with the others

Any word on how Deaner is doing?

yada seemed to be our inside source, but he's left the rez and don't think he's coming back this time

Probably for the best.  Those last run of DC shows were some of the best I had seen (DC historically always had lame setlists IMO, but I'm probably biased from seeing them for as long and as often as I did), so they went out on a good run.  Plus, it didn't seem like any new music was on the horizon. 

Back on top, i just got that Scratch Acid box set for Christmas (it was a preorder).  really great to have all of their output in one place like this. I'm pretty sure the previous collection was missing some stuff.

I would imagine it would be hard for Deaner to continue if he has any addiction issues which I have to think is what this is about. Not sure how Gener did it…

For me Ween really is associated with partying. Just listening to their music makes me want to grab a beer and have a smoke.

I hope Mickey is ok and finds happiness. There comes a time when every man has to tone it down a bit or become non functional and head to an early grave. Very few people can be functional alcohólics and drug addicts…

Hotwax - Hot Shock

the short version is if you like female bands doing riff-tastic swaggering rock and roll not unlike The Mysterines this is the record for you

more dumb details

This was a case of me seeing the band name float by me on The Socials recently only for a song to show up on one of those pesky autogenerated playlists and like hmm this is really great and made the connection.

they got a 5 star review from the NME with highlights like this

The Hastings band’s first record is scuzzy, snarling and a whole lot of fun

Straddling the worlds of grunge, punk and swaggering rock & roll, every track on ‘Hot Shock’ is a ferocious, unruly beast that’s allowed to stomp around.

Like Queens Of The Stone Age at their party-starting best, HotWax’s debut album is full of filthy rock’n’roll that’s made for dancing. That next great guitar band has arrived.
