Rock 'n' roll, my friend, pure, no messing around rock 'n' bloody roll. These scruff bags don't mess around, they just don't have the time. Like a garage version of Rose Tattoo, or a thrash take on AC/DC, or a rock version of Pussy Galore, or a punk take on The Cramps, whatever suits is what i say. THE LOVE DRUNKS love to make noise, they like to beat their guitars, turn their amps up way to high, and scream at their drummer to hit those skins harder. I'm digging it, but I'd hate to be the sorry fucks that have the practice room next to theirs. Delightful. - MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL issue number 275 April 2006
Find our record at any good record shop in your town along with all Tower Records. You can also now find The Love Drunks album in these local Atlanta independent record stores:

hey! we really took our time now didn't we..
Latest news is we got a brand new bass player and we're going to be playing a few shows this month!
by the way we're back in Israel now after 2 months in the USA.
SO... If you happen to be in Tel Aviv next week (How likely is that?!)
Next show is Thursday, February 8th at SUBLIME, 53 Salame St. in Tel Aviv and there's no cover charge!
The next day, Friday February 9th we'll be in Jerusalem at the "OOLD FRIEND PUB", 1 Yoel Salomon St.
Cover charge is only 10 shekels, should be a lot of fun!
Cheers,
The Genders
This dog house here is mighty small
But it's sure better than no house at all
So ease it on over
Drag it on over
Move over cold dog cause a hot dog's moving in
MERRY CHRISTMAS, happy KWANZA and HAPPY HAUNUKKAH to all our friends! Not to mention a great FESTIVUS (for the rest of us)
See you all in 2007,
Luv
The Genders

You will be helping a hard working band keep doing what they do best, playing live. If we do not have a gig booked in your area, let us know, and we'll aim to get one soon!
We're back home in Tel Aviv, kicking back after a grueling 2 month US tour. We'd like to thank all our gracious hosts for putting us up on the road, all the bands we had the pleasure of sharing the stage with and all our fans and supporters in the US for making this our best tour yet!
We miss you all and we'll see you again in 2007, earlier rather than later, we hope.
We're now working on the release of our second album, "Virgin No. 72", which will be available for purchase online through our Myspace page as of today!! An official release date will be announced soon.
To all our Israeli friends, hang tight, no shows yet. We'll play a lot of shows when the album's out, we promise!
And last but not least, to all our European friends, we're planning a Summer 2007 European tour, so if you're in a band, own a club or a booking agency and would like to help in any way, please get in touch with us ASAP!
