For the first round of locals, we've assembled tracks from some of the hardest, meanest, dirtiest bands around Missoula!
1) Judgement Hammer - “Lightning War” - sooooo sick! Judgement Hammer are young enough to have to play straight-edge at bars, and skilled enough to whoop up on many an aged long-hair. They released a new record a couple of months ago, aptly dubbed 'Arbiter of Fate,' from which "Lightning War" has been graciously donated. Thrash metal for the black jeans and white hi-tops in you!
2) TSMF - “Tax Dollars From America” - surly yet fun-loving, these crazy punk folks in TSMF (ask them what it stands for) have been booting backsides for the last 2+ years. This recording was made especially for the JimmyComp released back in the winter, and man does it kill! Hardcore shouts and gutteral belchings hand-deliver political and social gusto straight from the intestines. Yep!
3) At Home In The Cosmos - “Two Cancers and a Leo Walk into a Bar . . . ” - classic power trio AHITC deliver the thick, the heavy, the burlsome, and the sweat-drenched . . . the lineup has solidified into a powerhouse V8 engine of grungy, quasi-punk a la The Cows' more salient moments, or perhaps a noisier, more spiritually-attuned Jesus Lizard. Scuzz+truth=AHITC!
4) Green Sickness - “Smoke and Fire”- Green Sickness: four gnarly dudes who will drink your beer, annihilate your bong, and ride beyond the horizon leaving you waiting for their triumphant return. "Smoke and Fire" evokes images of a)not giving a damn b)wearing leather jackets and c)smoking the entire earth. Cross reference: Sabbath, ZZ Top, Eye Hate God, Bongzilla.
Stay tuned for more hot local music action!
