kriss Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 now THIS is a good thread! Ty Segall has been one of my favorites over the last few years. If you like his stuff, try his earlier bands Epsilons and well as the Traditional Fools as well. If you end up loving the Mummies (the Mummies friggin' RULE!), then you'd love both of these bands. Most anything on the Hozac label as well as select stuff on Sacred Bones (the last Human Eye record was WAY rad!) 60's Garage: (and early rockabilly/50's trash - it all tied together) The Blue Magoos The Count Five The Sonics The Trashmen The Shangri-Las The Troggs Hasil Adkins (more 50's but seriously some of the most lo - fi manic stuff you'll ever hear!) Jack Starr (early) Wanda Jackson (early) Charlie Feathers try to check out various compilation series floating around like Teenage Shutdown, Back From The Grave, Pebbles, Strummin' Mental, Girls In The Garage, Sin Alley and various others as well - TONS of crazy obscure garage rock/punk and early rockabilly and 50's trash on those. Also - the ULTIMATE garage rock radio show - go get a torrent of Lux Interior's early 1980's radio show The Purple Knif. Seriously the best 1 hour of listening one could have. The vinyl is stupid expensive if you find it (60+) but snatch it up if you do because it's worth every penny (this is one of the prizes in my personal collection). For newer stuff from the 70's onward: Billy Childish and his various bands (Thee Milkshakes, Thee Mighty Caesars, etc) The Fleshtones The Bo-Weevils (from Australia) Cococoma Permanent Voltage Man or Astro-Man? The Phantom Surfers The Makers The Scientists Hunx and His Punx Eddy Current Suppression Ring So many. This thread has me stoked! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kriss Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 jesus and mary chain. Their early EP's and 7"s had a really Cramp-ish sound which held garage elements certainly but JaMC were more pioneers of shoe gaze/noise pop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kriss Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 this is VERY true! - I'm biased slightly due to JaMC being one of my all time favorites. Their buzz saw guitar approach definitely has a place holder on a lot of current garage bands like Woven Bones and definitely other bands on the Hozac roster for sure. The Mummies videos that skadaddy linked rule though - the Mummies are probably one of my favorite 'budget rock' 80's/90's garage punk bands. My favorite tune by them is 'The Fly'. The organ in that song... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseydave77 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 If we are talking old school rockabilly nothing beats Charlie Feathers. Link Wray is my favorite instrumentalist. Mainstream? Carl Perkins Sun sessions are amazing. More current: I haven't seen anyone mention Flashlights - I think their album is awesome. The Quadrajets are really consistent. Others covered a lot of great acts above. Some really obscure stuff has surfaced on some great comps (god bless Bear Family and Norton). Here are a couple great ones to start with if you're into the 60s sound: Fridays at the Hideout http://www.amazon.com/Friday-At-Hideout-Detroit-1964-67/dp/B0013B1R3O and Trans World Punk Rave Up http://paradiseofgaragecomps.blogspot.com/2008/02/trans-world-punk-rave-up-1-lp-crawdad.html This second comp is mind blowingly good. I bought it 15 years ago for a dollar and the song by Scorpions (not glam rock band) is one of the best Euro garage songs I've ever heard. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrAUw1LnkrM&hl=en&fs=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kriss Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 shit yeah Dave! that's some rad stuff! All of those compilations are SO good! Radio Cramps! http://www.garagepunk.com/2005/08/25/the-purple-knif-show/ Also, my favorite tune out of the entire 8 volume Back From The Grave series by Little Willie and The Adolescents (no, not those dudes from So Cal!)

Guest Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I know they cross over into psych-territory, but Thee Oh Sees have a very garage-y vibe to them. This song also felt like it belonged here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kriss Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 ^ Seems like TOS, NB and Ty are all fairly popular draws here in Chicago. I love them all but Ty's records have been at the top of my stack for nearly three years now. The dude puts out so much and so fast that it's near impossible to keep up.

thenuthouse Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 There's a 14 (?) volume set that this guy compiled, called "Lux & Ivy's Favorites." It features any and all songs mentioned by either of them in any interview. Lots of them can be found on the "Songs the Cramps Taught Us" comps, but there's sooooo much more. You can torrent them, or find them on Soulseek. They had 'em on the WMFU blog for a while, too. Edit: The WFMU blog has the first 11 volumes - http://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2009/02/lux-and-ivys-favorites-mp3s.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
