Another Sunday Night in Nebraska

Good evening everyone. It is currently 3:44 am CST on Sunday night, 05.08.04, I woke up a few hours ago after falling asleep during the Mavericks/Rockets game........I am still not sure who won, havent checked yet........will do that in a bit......

I missed Miss Megan's call again tonight.......our schedules totally don't mesh lately......I am always sleeping when she is awake and not working.......dammit.......I hope to be able to chat with her for a while tomorrow....always makes it a good day when I get a chance to talk with her : )

I am back to downloading tons of stuff tonight, so I figure I will just keep this window open and add whatever stuff I find..........(at least the stuff that I think is pretty cool, no sifting thru the crap to find a peanut for you......Unklebry will have done all that for you)

So, here we go........

First up is a band I know nothing about, the same way it will be with most of the bands listed here tonight......just searching different links pages, and it is just wacky what you will find when you check out the links section of some glam/punk/sleaze/trash/whatever band from Italy.....they link you to their pals, and them to their pals, and etc....so we will be digging deep here....anyway.. (click on the song title to get the songs)

1st track
The Amber Taylor Band-Rebel Rebel (David Bowie Cover)

Dont know anything about this band, except what I read on the site.......apparently some kind of crossdresser dude/chick/whatever who does big glam style shows with cool rock songs.......I dug the version of this song....you will too (unless you suck, then you might not like it)

2nd track
Devilish Presley-Black Leather Jesus

Again, had never heard of this band before tonight, but I think this song is pretty slick......imagine if you took The Cramps, Portrait Era Marilyn Manson, and Midnight Oil.......mixed them in a blender and added some Midori in the mix to make it a bit sweeter and nice instead of all Manson evil style........closest I can get to a description of these guys........but I dig this song, check it out.

3rd Track
Shameless-Talk Dirty To Me (Poison Cover)

Shameless is interesting, some dude in Germany, who is totally into the whole late 80's early 90's glam rock style music. He has released 3 full albums, and the nifty thing is that he has had Stevie Rachelle from Tuff, and Steve Summers from Pretty Boy Floyd fly over and do vocals on his records.......if you are a fan of this kind of music, this is pretty cool. The Poison cover is from a Poison tribute cd.....not sure who is doing vocals on that one, but kind of sounds like Steve Summers to me. Anyway, slip on your spandex and dig it.

4th track
Rachel Stamp-Home Made Sex Change

Okay, what do you get when you cross the gal who used to sing for the Pandoras (Paula something or other) with Debbie Harry of Blondie........throw in the keyboard player from the Human League, and Ace Frehley from Kiss on guitar.....but pretend Ace didnt play for Kiss, he played for the Ramones, but still did his old '77 Love Gun style guitar solos..........intrigued yet? Maybe not, but if you are like me, this sounds like a good combo platter. Check it out.

5th track
The Revolvers-Do You Have The Time

Just a cool song, sadly this band is now split up.........but this one kind of reminds me of Green Day and At The Drive In getting into a fight and then sitting down for milk and cookies afterwards to laugh about how silly that fighting thing was and write a song. This is that song.

6th track
Artimus Pyledriver-Dirt Road White Girl

I have liked these guys for a while now.....checked out their song samples online, then ended up ordering their demo and a shirt from the singer, Dave.............they have now released their debut full length, which I need to get on the ball and order from them.....check out why I dig them so much, this is a track from their demo EP...and it rules. If you don't like this song, there is something very, very wrong with you. Imagine COC meets Skynyrd at a Clutch concert and then hook up for some late night drinkin' with Bon Scott era AC DC. It is all good.

Okay, that is enough stuff to keep your ears happy for a little while at least, drop me some damn comments and let me know how you like the songs..........or just to say hello or something.
