Knoxville Girls • In A Ripped Dress
Kid Congo Powers has a musical resume you wouldn’t believe, and this particular outing for his talents is garage psychobilly supreme, a wonderfully uncouth expression of much-needed sophisticated boom boom.
Spin Doctors • Face Full Of Cake

Dynamite Shakers • Don't Be Boring
