I've been listening to the Killer Dwarfs discography lately. It's the first time I've heard some of their albums. Each album has some really great songs, even their most recent release Start @ One.

I love that Blackeyed Susan album. I remember reading an interview in RIP magazine with lead singer Dean Davidson (who used to front Britny Fox) and he said his mother was so proud of his performance in Blackeyed Susan because "you're actually singing instead of shrieking". lol!

That Start@One album was supposed to be the follow up to Methods. So, recorded in 1993? You should check out Russ's solo stuff. What a voice!

I forget about them. Do they keep that bluesy, barroom thing going?

Not through the whole thing. Some of the album sounds more along the lines of Kik Tracee or Spread Eagle. Like this one:

Checking out more by The Throbs, really liking it.

I have a love / hate relationship with these kind of threads.
I love finding out about these bands but I hate the dent in puts in my wallet.

King Of Kaiju Number of posts : 30892 Age : 64

Yep, I have the same relationship!

This track is more poppy, but The Wildhearts have some killer sleazy goodness.

Ginger is my favorite songwriter.

Skipping around through that album it sounds pretty good. I've heard OF Princess Pang but I don't think I've ever heard them before.

I ask cuz there were at least two "Rattlebones," one from L.A. and one from New Jersey. The songs I posted above were by the L.A. one, from this EP. I don't think I've ever heard the one from NJ.

Local NJ faves Bad Biscut. Their debut album The American Dream? (1994) is a longtime favorite of mine
