Bio
..Formed in 2008 in the Reynoldstown hood just a few blocks from the infamous Citgo station where one of the members once stopped a man from rubbing lotion on his sports car. Also, not far from a Church's that was shut down for selling crack cocaine across the counter. Bric-o-brac hard, fast/slow post-psyche/punk with different narrators and rattlesnake riffs that the next-door dogs seem not too busy to hate. The "Horseless" single is available at shows or Wax 'N Facts, Criminal Records, Reactionary Records, Decatur CD, Full Moon Records, Wuxtry and Weird Wax. ..
Members
..MEMBERS OF Brass Castle, Batata Doce, Tone Deaf Pig Dogs, Missile Command, Lesbian Afternoon, Ladies Night, The Close, Gizzard, Gong Fodder, DQE, Rock*a*teens, Subsonics:...... Chris Strawn.. Justin Hughes.. Keefe Justice.. Christy Montero...... ...... "Aimless, dirt-floor rock y roll from this Atlanta combo, featuring former or past members of the Rock*a*Teens and Brass Castle. Not a lot in the way of production, but "Horseless" has a nice break that busts up the white-guy-in-A-frame party, and shows these folks have a little dimension to their ways (and that they know when to aim for the ditch when overstaying their welcome seems possible). "Big Hatchet" jumps up and down on the back porch, blowing out a nylon-string jam with large muff and a serviceable beat. Dingy and doesn't look like much – really, the front cover art looks like a prison tattoo of two chicks making out on the roof of a Chevy pickup – but there's small joys inside, which hopefully will be revisited later on to greater effect. 300 copies." (http://www.myspace.com/glenirisaction) Doug Mosurock / 8/26/09...... "Glen Iris brings back big rock through punk-infused classic rock licks by two of Atlanta's hottest guitarists, Justin Hughes and Chris Strawn. Drummer and former Icecaps front man Jonathan Lueke rounds out what is already a formidable line-up." Justin Sias PINE Magazine 02/03/2009 ...... "Glen Iris cranked out some seriously heavy guitar-driven rock backed by driving drums – good stuff." Degenenerate Press 1/09....
Influences
..Black Sabbath, Thinking Fellers, Royal Trux, Deep Purple, Hubert Sumlin, 9-volt batteries, AAA, Gary Hart.. ............ "What white man has ever seen me drunk?" - Sitting Bull .. ......
Sounds Like
..like a dirty Camaro with SST cassettes strewn across the floorboards ......
