U.S. BOMBS

U.S. Bombs are an American punk rock band, formed in 1993. U.S. Bombs consist of vocalist Duane Peters, guitarists Jonny Wickersham and Kerry Martinez, bass guitarist Wade Walston and drummer Chip Hanna. The group released its first album in 1996, a self-titled four-track EP. Their first full-length album, Put Strength in the Final Blow, was followed by Garibaldi Guard! (A…pr. 1996). Before the release of the album Back at the Laundromat, Chuck Briggs left the band. Youth Brigade member Jonny Wickersham took his place.

They have appeared on Premium Blend as the stage band during Jim Breuer’s hosting stint, and contributed a track from Back at the Laundromat, “Yer Country”, to the soundtrack for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 4.

In the second half of 2006, U.S. Bombs toured intensively through Brazil, playing in the Vans ZonaPunk Tour (The brazilian version of the Warped Tour), and released their latest album We Are The Problem, in Brazil. As of 2010, the U.S. Bombs have been working on a new album, which is due for release in 2010.

THE GRIT

THE GRIT are ready to unleash “Straight out the Alley,” their eagerly awaited new studio album via the world’s most infamous record label ‘People Like You Records.‘ For the last 2 years the band have relentlessly toured their previous album, ‘Shall We Dine?’, from the prestigious festival stages [including Reading and Glastonbury] to the deadliest snake pit venues of England, Germany and beyond. They now intend to take their personal brand of “Punk ‘n’ Fuck ‘n’ Roll” to a new level, armed with a sack full of fresh material but the same ever-ready ballsy determination that has seen their reputation spread like a contagious disease that audiences have all been eager to contract. Prior to the release, THE GRIT are to take a pre-emptive swoop through the UK and Europe, inevitably doing what they have become notorious for; upstaging the big names and leaving all in their wake with the knowledge that they have witnessed something special. This string of dates will include tours with The Generators, Goldblade and The Aggrolites, and also see them share the stage with Rancid in their hometown, Newcastle. Rather than follow the conventional tactic of releasing a single prior to the album, THE GRIT are doing things a little differently; teaming up with Big Cheese Magazine and releasing their single, plus album track and 2 live tracks as a freebie on the front cover of the issue due out april 22nd. With this, and another BBC Radio 1 session with mike davies being recorded on April 2nd and aired in the weeks to follow, the album will have every chance of achieving the impact it is more than capable of. Then come April 9th, “Straight out the Alley” hits the shelves, with 12 tracks of their trademark, genre splicing sound, it cruises seamlessly through Punk, Ska, Rockabilly, Psychobilly and even Country. In many ways more ambitious than the previous album, it features a host of guest musicians, bringing Mandolin, Ukulele and Brass to the fore, whilst still maintaining the same upbeat punk ‘n’ roll sound throughout. Well, would you expect anything less? Then it’s back to where this band feels most at home – on the road. Kicking off the album release tour in May 2009, THE GRIT look forward to tearing up stages in the UK and Europe as well as making the most of the summer Festival circuit. And with plans for Russia, Japan and the USA in the pipeline, 2009 should be busiest and best for THE GRIT so far. THE GRIT are not just another punk rock band. Those that have witnessed their live show have experienced that. A fact set to be reinforced in concrete once their “Straight out the Alley” is let off the leash.

PÅ LILLESCENA 1. ETG: THE MORMONES (N)

Er du ute etter en koseaften med rødvin og dempet musikk kan du bare glemme denne kvelden! The Mormones er en punk-rock duo med snedige stuntkombinasjoner , uten å være fpor komplekse og ubegripelige. Den ene hamrer løs på et stakkars minimalistisk trommesett og korer, den andre spiller fuzzbass og hyler diabolsk.

Nerven i The Mormones er det makeløse og energikrevende samspillet som eksplosivt fyller ørene. De kjører motorveien til helvete og har ikke vikeplikt for en eneste desibel.

Om debuten “Guide To Good And Evil”, 2003:
“Motor-rock med nitroglyserin på tanken: gutta ruser litt før begge spinner av gårde i grisete bassganger med fuzz i kanten og trampende monstertruck-trommer.”

- Harald Fossberg, Aftenposten

“The Mormones fra Lillehammer er allerede noe av det beste du kan oppleve på en scene, og jammen om de ikke klarer å overføre det til plate også. Besetningen består av Morten Lunde på bass/vokal og Simen Jeistad på trommer/vokal, og vi lover at du aldri tidligere har hørt noe lignende fra en duo. Mormonerne dro til Nashville for å spille inn albumet, og fikk likegodt med seg selveste Mark Nevers (Calexico, Lambchop, Will Oldham) som produsent. Dette er rett-på-sak garasjepunk som skylder like mye til Chuck Berry og Sonics som til Motorhead og Ramones.”

- Platekompaniet

“…For her spilles det fort. Som juling. Man bare må ha massiv respekt for et band som debuterte med en ni–spors sju–tommer. Guide to good evil er deres første album, og gjennomsnittslåta går i E, spilles så fort at Dyret må gi alt han har, handler om å ikke ha det kjedelig og heter “That\‘s it, I\’m calling the Mothership” og er over på 1.33".

- Universitas

“The Mormones er et sinnssykt konsertband – gå og se dem. På plate fungerer trommer-og-bass-ideen absolutt tilfredsstillende, selv om deres artilleriaktige attack og medrivende trøkk ikke er like bakoversveisframkallende som fra scenen, til tross for ellers forbilledlig no bullshit -produksjon fra Lambchop-lydguru Mark Nevers. Når øset er kanalisert på en balansert måte, blir det også lettere å skimte både styrkene og svakhetene ved Mormones-konseptet. Deres kortspilte traktorblues – 14 spor gjøres unna på 32 minutter – er rik på vilje, rik på rockforståelse og rik på selvbevissthet på en «Ass Cobra»/Turboneger-måte…”

- Dagbladet

Om “Dra Til Hælvette” fra 2005:

“Noen ganger det enkle bedre enn det kompliserte og vanskelige. Disse gangene er også kombinasjonen bass, trommer og sprukken sang det beste det er mulig å fylle ørene med. The Mormones har funnet ut dette for lenge siden, og viker derfor heller ikke en tomme fra suksessformularet på andreplaten Dra Til Hælvette.”

- Panorama

“So this is a minimalist punk band, churning out a bizarre red-neck message at the maximum RPM, and it must be said: who would have thought a bass could sound like this? The poor, overdriven bass guitar sounds like a legion of conventional ones through walls of Marshalls, delivering riffs so hard and dirty they fume. And behind the drums attack without repose and the listener is kicked, kicked, kicked”

- mic.no
Som en live favoritt har tospannet blitt en cult som lover publikum å oppleve skikkelig slem hedonisme!
