Bob Reuter's Alley Ghost - S/T
Bob Reuter's Alley Ghost is American Music at its best. The godfather of Midwestern DIY is surrounded by a young, soulful group of St. Louis musicians as he sings ballads of love lost, friends found, sad soldiers, and back street affairs. Pots, pans & stovetops lend their hand among harmonica, banjolin, upright bass, snare drums and guitars to the definitive Bob Reuter recording as the lines between folk, punk, country and rock & roll are blurred. The music is raw, driving, and true - truly a gift to anyone willing to open the package.
Rum Drum Ramblers - Hey Lordy Mama Mama Get Up & Go
If you like punk and dig the blues, then this album is for you. The guitar bends, hisses and howls in ways that would make Johnny Thunders' knees weak. The harmonica conjures up the sound assault of Jimmy Page just as much as the bob and weave juke-joint shuffle of Little Walter. And the bass - well, this guy is one of the best and that's all there is to it. The rhythm is a contagious stomp clank and the performance is a raw slop of beauty tinged blues destruction. All originals, all instant classics.
Pokey LaFarge - Beat, Move, and Shake
Armed with Charlie Chaplin charm and Shakespearian insight, Pokey LaFarge weaves 12 timeless originals into the fabric of Americana. Calling upon the soul of Ray Charles just as much as the imagery of Townes van Zandt, "Beat, Move, and Shake" creates a delightful blend of quirky pop and delta-meets-appalachia country blues. Backed by an unfaltering beat on an upright bass, Pokey picks at his guitar and lets his voice float freely in an album whose title will prove to be it's best description.
The Monads - Ornery
Merging moonshine and mosh pits, St. Louis' own acoustic warriors, The Monads, blend blistering bluegrass with punk-rock swagger. Armed with the traditional bluegrass instrumentation and packed with a ferocious energy, the Monads sing songs about murderin', drinkin', losin', cursin' and the end of the world. So raise a glass, stomp your boots, and holler right along to a sound that's best described as 'Black & Bluegrass'.
Johnny O & the Jerks..The Vultures - Spirit of St. Louis Split 7"
This 7-inch serves as a memorial to a time where rock & roll lay breathing in gutters all across St. Louis. For two and half years, Johnny O & the Jerks and the Vultures tore up the dive bars and basements of St. Louis and the east coast, bringing all walks of life together promoting unity under three chords, blood, sweat, and a whole lot of 40's. The Vultures' apocalyptic hyper-Sonics take on punk rock and the Jerks' hellbent psycho-swing sound has never sounded better than on this 7-Inch. A must have for St. Louis' collectors and rock & roll fans of any kind. (THIS IS A 7-INCH VINYL!)
7 Shot Screamers - In Wonderland
The 7 Shot Screamers built their own sound and legacy, and this album is their quintessential release. They've been called glitterpunk, psychobilly, pop, and rockabilly New York Dolls. None of those terms can even come close to defining this album. 7 Shot Screamers in Wonderland is a St. Louis masterpiece, combining the influence of the late 60s punk movement with the sounds of the rockabilly revival and sludge pop. Thematically, this album catelogues over 7 years of the rock and roll life on the road, at home, and in the mind.
Casey Reid - Cephalclog
Casey Reid writes songs with wisdom that flutters beyond description and "Cephalclog" is his masterpiece. His lyrics are inspired and his guitar playing unique, floating between delta-driven fingerpicking and a full-fledged assault on the strings that is as beautiful as it is furious. With an array of orchestral accompaniment - ranging from weeping cello to pounding junkyard percussion - Reid's powerful and ghastly voice slams through blues epics and folkie barn-burners with a heartfelt sincerity that is truly hard to find and a style impossible to match.
Johnny O & the Jerks - Taking Out the Trashabilly
On their debut album, Johnny O & the Jerks create a hellbent blend of swing, punk, and blues that, at its best, channels the lunacy of Jerry Lee Lewis and the style of Muddy Waters. "Taking Out the Trashabilly" showcases the bands ability to stumble between rock and roll bliss and complete chaos with dirty and beautiful guitar leads ripping through a furious and driving rhythm section. Jam packed with 12 high-energy, howling tracks to give you, if nothing else, one hell of a good time.
The Vultures - (self-titled)
They've been hailed as "rock & roll acolytes," and Punk Planet called them "heavier than the Cramps," but these words show only a small glimpse of the energy packed into this 8-song EP. The Vultures reinvent what it means to be a garage band with their explosive mixture of rockabilly twang, blissful doo-wop, and howling punk rock. Loud, raw, and fast, this album has become a party classic for many fans around the world and promises to delight countless future generations as a rock and roll gem.
