Influences
The Poison Control Center rocking one of the greatest Lo-Fi songs ever, "TWO STATES"
by Pavement! DID I MENTION we did it with Bob Nastanovich of PAVEMENT.. HOW COOL IS THAT
Here is what some people have said recently about the band....
"The Ames-based indie band approaches songwriting with a scattered musical mindset, switching genres and bending the traditional rules of rock music instantaneously. Perfect power pop is gleefully sabotaged, and a simply arranged horn section has some outstanding cameos. "Shot in the Face" shows the band's ability to maintain a song's emotive quality without losing an ounce of catchiness. Interesting matchups are everywhere; if Wolf Parade listened to too much Tom Petty, "Ride the Lightning" would be the result." The Daily Iowan
"The Vibe is undeniable, considering the praise PCC has been getting in the indie-pop blogosphere, it might end up giving Tapes N' Tapes a run for their money." the Onion
"very dynamic, versatile and just a little bit frightening!" KEXP Blog
"They’ve helmed in their more reckless leanings and stand before us with the tassel flipped over to the left side of their caps, signifying a graduation of sorts into the kind of rock and roll world that they always knew was out there waiting for them." Daytrotter
"I can only describe them as "The Replacements" meet the "Beach Boys" in a dark alley, kick the shit out of them, and now they're driving across town to shove their Skechers up Paul McCartney's ass. Howling yet intelligent lyrics, Crazy Horse guitar tones and hints of classical instruments haunt the entire collection of songs." Exploration Iowa
i say "YES" to PCC and "YES" to AMES. i'm feeling the ames pride pretty strong these days, know what i mean? towny fever is sweeping this community. towny fever is the swine flu that you WANT to get :)
hey are you guys going to tour anytime soon? I hope Devin and Don havent decided just yet to put down the instruments and put those degree's to good use.
I read about the theory that Paul died in a car accident. Or that one of the guys i cant remember which one killed him. And the Abbey Road picture is said something like a funeral (still not remembering the details) and the license plate said "281F" about how Paul would be 28 if still alive.
This was in my Sociology book. But yeah. And I was just talking about it the other night.
You like beer right? You might get a kick out of this Ozzy skit. Here's the new film Gabby Skab and I made last night for upcoming Pabst sales convention. The Skabs "PBR Me Right Now". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGPLSnltauk
