It is my legal obligation to notify you that a record featuring Ron Asheton, Mark Arm, Thurston Moore, Mike Watt, Steve Shelley and more has been unleashed on the unsuspecting public.
Formed (and recorded) in 1997 as a means to record Stooges covers for the "Velvet Goldmine" soundtrack, this uber-group comes in hard. Covers of the Pretty Things "Rosalyn" and "LSD"? Can't go wrong with that. Add in a clutch of otherwise overlooked Asheton compositions (some being co-writes with his Destroy All Monsters bandmate Niagara) and what exists here is a pure, classy example of the kind of record we all need more of in our lives. Steamrolling guitar driven rock and roll by folks who've osmotically embodied it. Quintessential.
Which color did you get? I guess there wasn’t enough room to get J Mascis in there huh?!?!?
Hope these are around for another couple weeks!!
