OUT NOW CHEAP TIME s/t LP/CD Hailing from Henderson, Tennessee, Jeffrey Novak is a name already familiar to those who pay attention to the whole lo-fi-garage-punk underbelly of today's indie scene. He's released and handful of singles and at least one album on labels in the US and Europe as a one-man-band and with his former band, The Rat Traps. He's been at it for nearly five years and he's barely in his 20's. CHEAP TIME is his newest, and most serious, endeavor to date. Founded with Jemina Pearl and Nathan Vasquez of Be Your Own Pet, CHEAP TIME set out to recapture the essence of teenage schlock rock scuzz of such heroes as Redd Kross and The Runaways. Along the way members shifted as did the band's direction. As an obsession with 70's glam power pop ala Sparks, The Quick and Milk N' Cookies took over, the music took on a new twisted slant that had never been hinted at in any of his previous projects. The results are the current line up of CHEAP TIME and their debut album. CHEAP TIME's self-titled debut album is twenty eight minutes of snotty punk pop perfection. From the New York Dolls via Germs screech of ìTight Fitî to the anglophile power pop of ìGinger Snapî to the bubblegum bounce of ìTrip To The Zooî, this debut has instant classic stamped all over it's bratty face.

OUT NOW A.H. KRAKEN s/t LP/CD Out of Metz, France comes the ugly and brutal noize punk of A.H. Kraken. Their name is an amalgam of a facist dictator and a sea monster and their sound is a wild, intense blur of bludgeoning rhythms, industrial clatter, scraping guitars and caterwauling vocals. Citing influences as disparate PIL, Motorhead, US Maple, Suicide, Flipper, The Shaggs and Chrome, A.H. Kraken sound as if they are about to implode or explode at any given second at all times. With all lyrics yelled in barely intelligible French, it's impossible for me to say what they're bellowing on about, though one song is titled Kevin Costner. When bassist/vocalist S.J. was asked about the lyrics he assured that they are ìall about peace and loveî. I don't believe him. A.H Kraken are pure, unrestrained throttle burn. They create landscapes of sound with instruments that are obviously getting the shit beat out of them. This is mega-decibel audio destruction at it's most overwrought. This is not for the faint of heart. For fans of the Brainbombs, Drunks With Guns and Pussy Galore.

OUT NOW! THE DIRTBOMBS The Dirtbombs play Sparks 7" single The Dirtbombs tackle two tunes from Sparks' massive back catalog.
