Anyone dig it? Who are your fav bands past and present. For me, the jam past, white wires now.

The undisputed kings of power pop.

Newer ones... there are a ton, but recently I've had my TSAR record back on the turntable.

Check:

"Calling All Destroyers"
"I Don't Wanna Break Up"
"Silver Shifter"
"Kathy Fong Is The Bomb"

Damn straight! I'm having a little bit of a tough time getting into their newest one... but I really loved Follow Jean Through The Sea, so I may just be making unfair comparisons here...

New Redd Kross really is perfect.

Yeah, I dug the single. Will have to look into the full album.

Sweet... honestly I've never heard of anyone else who likes the Figgs. I'm a Figgs fan from way back to "Lo-Fi At Society High" and "Bando Macho".


Loooooove those records.

Awwwwwwwww yeah! So good. I've never gotten to see them live, which is a bummer. They've come through this area three or four times, and I've always found out after the fact, or too soon to get down to the show. Hopefully they'll be back through sometime soon.

Just realized that no-one has mentioned The Posies yet, which is like, a capital crime:

And of course The Posies makes me think of Big Star (only have time for one)
