Some RECENT PRESS:
The Austin Chronicle (July 31, 2008) by Austin Powell
"The target demographic for Full Service is pretty easy to pinpoint: alternatively inclined youths, aged 12-24, capable of getting down to both 311 and Snoop Dogg (see "Texas Platters," p.54). For the past month, the local jam band has tailgated alongside the 4:20-enthusiasts' joint tour, playing generator-powered, guerilla-style sets in the parking lot before each show. "Daily confrontation with police and security can get pretty stressful," relays guitarist/vocalist Bonesaw via e-mail. That's putting it mildly. The quartet was barred from setting up in Holmdel, N.J., and two members were arrested and held overnight in Brooklyn after being busted with a spliff that was supposedly confiscated by a parking-lot security guard and given to the band. It's a good thing the group brought along its own crew to document the trip (www.fullservicemusic.com). "Our website hits per day have tripled, and so all seems to be going according to plan!" says Bonesaw, who's handed out more than 1,200 demos to date. Full Service gears up for one last takeover Saturday at the sold-out Backyard (they're sitting out Sunday's show there), with an official homecoming at Flamingo Cantina on Friday."
The Austin American Statesman (August 1, 2008) by Joe Gross
"Full Service. There's a pop-craft side to them (think Beach Boys harmonies), a funk side (think many hours with Fishbone's and Chili Peppers' albums) and a whole lot of dreadlocks (you'll see). 9 p.m. Flamingo Cantina. 515 E. Sixth St. 494-9336." — J.G.
INsite Magazine by Sean Claes January 2008
If you haven’t discovered this band of brothers in Austin yet, here’s the deal with FULL SERVICE. They play music. Good music. They record albums. Many albums. Full lengths, EPs, Samplers, you name it.
Think of it this way. . . owners of cars know that they need to change the oil every 3-4 months. That’s about the amount of time between Full Service releases. It’s like they are committed to changing their listeners musical oil every few months. I’d criticize them if they were coming out with generic rock. . . but these guys seem to bleed good music.
The Dig is no exception. This eleven-song disc jumps genres and levels of seriousness, but at the core of it is the two-part harmony of the brothers Kepner (vocal/guitarist Bonesaw and vocal/drummer Hoagman).
Songs like “Do It Again” and “Hi Ho” have a sound that is typical FS-fare – that reggae-infused mellow beachfront feel that seems to be at the core of the band.
Of course, they layer a bit more of the rock on other tracks (their guitarist IS called Bonesaw, remember?). They channel Rage Against the Machine in the hardcore “Tasteless Gravy.” Classic metal seems to be the source for the sounds of “Blasted Lands” and “Subterranean.”
A none-too concealed opinion of the war is contained on “Bombs Killed My Father.” Read: "Bombs killed my father/Grief killed my mother/Rage killed my brother/Cause bombs killed his lover"
Check out this release. Better yet, head on out to the Flamingo Cantina on January 19th and catch their CD release show. If you hear this, you’ll want to own it, so you may as well buy it from the guys and shake their hands.
