I have been meaning to do something like this for a long time, this started out as a Canadian distro sampler but turned into a mixed type tape featuring Zanta, Wu-Tang, and other weirdness. Most of this stuff can be found in the Rubber Factory store..so I guess this is a big promo but that’s ok because most of you may not have heard some of this before. Download, Share and Enjoy!
AK47 – Why The Fuck Do You Think (Reason)
The Rebel Spell – Please Resist (G7)
Blastcaps – Spectator (Battersea)
Cold Blue Sky – Your Secret
Crookedhook – Ends Meet (Sore Loser)
Flashlight – Ice Cold ‘Sweden’ (Double A)
Permanent Bastards – Business Never Personal
Summer of ’92 – Prayers In Vegas
Rome Romeo – Skin Temperature (Machete)
Hijack Delta – Mountains of Brick and Glass
Bidiniband – We Like To Rock (Pheromone)
The Burnitdowns – Andy Believed In Glass Mountains (Rubber Factory)
Sinkin’ Ships – Boothill (Sink & Destroy)
Tiltwheel (from San Diego) make their way up to Toronto and play a show with their friends Sinkin’ Ships. This will be Tiltwheels first time in Canada so lets show them a good time.
Also on the show will be the Roman Line and Year Zero.
In 1994 I played some tiltwheel as a guest on chry 105.5 (ewan’s show?, stephe? these are fuzzy days indeed) and talked about where I had first heard them (Plan B video) ad how much It rocked (yeah, real deep stuff here) I heard more tiltwheel in later skate videos (Troubleshooters) and learned what I could about this band from a dial-up and sparse mid 90′s internet when lo and behold David Tiltwheel had a comprehensive webpage with frequently asked questions, bit of a history, and all the stuff we expect now, to see from a bands website. Kind of a big deal to learn about this group. After some long gaps, joy and pain, sunshine and rain, 2 platinum records in Greenland, 2 Leatherface covers, America’s got Talent finalists SHITWHEEL finally comes up to Toronto. Come on out and see a band that some people call the ‘american Leatherface’..um, with more husker du than motorhead *sigh* (sorry, I had to, it’s just easier to explain ‘music’ that way) -JDM

Five years in the making (due to line up changes, babies and other major life changes) this is the absolute distillation of what we’ve been attempting to do as a band for the last 10 years.
24 songs in 22 minutes played with passion and sheer naked aggression. Written with violence and intention.
ImpostoRRO has just uploaded songs from Rome Romeo’s s/t ep out on Machete Records. Rome Romeo contains Gen and Olivier from Fifth Hour Hero. This 12″ record is available from Machete Records (Canada) and Rubber Factory store (Canada). *clear vinyl in stock 4 left

I listened to this comp religiously in the year leading up to and after my daughter’s birth. What that means is that my best friend for about a year was Awesome Town. Summer or winter, zombified from lack of sleep, I was very likely to be alone on the patio with a head full of party while the girls turned in.
There’s something about a good comp, they can open up a strange new world if you take the time to dig in. One particular, in this case, is a handful of active band members popping up in multiple bands and backing each other up. Guitarist/songwriters move to bass, Record label owners move to lead vocals, Bands are named after men, men that are in bands themselves, with men from other bands.
Recently we have been listening to the ‘Don’t Fall Asleep” comp out of Minneapolis where I hear what sounds like a few of the same voices multiple times on the album. The approach is different enough each time that it creates a bit more of a story of the gang’s musical ‘scene’ It feels like a collection of short stories that have no choice but to complement each other.
Back to Awesome Town, this comp is a sweet ride (brah) that has led me across the border a couple of times to eat and greet with these good southern gentlemen in their natural habitats. I’d say this comp even led me to a basement house to drink some kind of joose that, by Florida law, had to be “stirred by the arm of the hairiest man in the room” good times!
This comp has tracks from 4 labels
ADD RECORDS (tampa) – KISS OF DEATH RECORDS (tampa) – FAST CROWD RECORDS (san diego) -SO INTENSE RECORDS (tampa) most of these bands are active so if you like this, I mean really like it, look them up and support. Thanks to Dave Disorder.
