The Troggs + the Fugs + the Shaggs = THE FRIGGS - One of the 90’s fave rockin’ girl bands!
The Friggs play supercharged, harmony saturated, trashy pop with a dash of surf on the side the way Russ Meyer intended it to be. With five 7" singles, one 10" EP released on independent labels to their credit, their CD "Rock Candy" proves to be one of those classic debut albums that rocks and rolls at the same time. The recently released “Today is Tomorrow’s Yesterday” collects all of the early vinyl records, plus a few previously unreleased basement demos on one CD. ........... Hear what the kids are saying:................. .................
“I like the beat!”, Anita Smoke (15, Philly, PA) .............. ......
“You can frug to it”, Patti O’Furniture (16, Brooklyn, NY) ...... ...
“Makes me wanna F@*&!”, Phil McCrackin (17, Collingsweird, NJ) ...
“You will be pleasantly amused.” Rick O’Shea (45, mom’s basement) ...

Please be informed that G. Wood/Undercover Bonobos have posted a new song entitled "Seeds" on their Myspace music player. We strongly advise that you review this material carefully. Your commentary is welcomed.
Analysis: We have been informed that this song sounds like a Communist Collective work song. We are further advised that it may be misconstrued as a treatise on the cultivation of illegal herbage. We are cautioned that some listeners may experience a shift in psychological set and setting during the "psychedelic" interlude. Please report any activity of this nature forthwith.
This song may be intended and interpreted as a tribute to the late, great, Sky Saxon.
We gratefully anticipate your thoughts on this matter.
