NEW CRAWLSPACE CD!!!  Ignorance Is Bliss (Gulcher Records) $10 13 blasts of ROCK aimed at your hungry head. This time we've got no less than eleven new originals plus a couple covers. Here's a quick rundown. . . . "(I Am) The Watcher": Remember that bald guy from the Fantastic Four comic books? I woke from a dream, and these words flowed directly onto paper. All wrapped up in total gnarl! "Blame It On The Universe": Well, you know, you gotta blame SOMEBODY! And I figure why leave anybody out? Me included, y'know? "Whatever Happened To Gloria?": Sendin' this one out to Gloria Leonard, Gloria Stavers, and Wizzard. "(Here Come) Them Sexy Sixties": What happens when baby-boom chicks get "old"? So far, it's lookin' NOT BAD AT ALL! The dirty old men of Crawlspace give thumbs up. Yeah, there's a Rolling Stones reference--what's it to ya?! "First I Look At The Purse": Yep, our take on the J. Geils take on the Contours/Smokey Robinson classic. Gimme some money, honey! "Vote Yes On 69": Wobblebilly, baby! And the polls close early, so get on it! B-b-baby, beaver patrol! "Women In Cemeteries (Throwin' Monkeys)": Hey, does anybody know what this one's about? Dunno. It sho' do jam, though! "The Girl's Gettin' Lower": We give you the gift of 21st century concrete-swamp-rock. Burn it up loud! "Rt. 1 Box 22N": All right, man, a little breathin' room for a couple minutes. Pack a bowl and let the delta flow. "Mark Of Death": Second cover song, this one from the 1973 movie HORROR HOSPITAL and originally performed by heavy Satan-rockers Mystic (who?). "Sara Jane!": Remember the chick who tried to shoot Gerald Ford? No, not the Manson broad--the OTHER ONE! Well, here's a scorcher that tells you the whole true story. Kinda. "Not A Heartache": Is it gnu-wave or skunkabilly? Hmmm, you be the judge, dear listener. Do the push'n'pull! "Some Shitty Girls": Hey, it's a bit of old-time Crawlspace improv! And an instrumental to boot. Dedicated to the late, very great Charles Gocher (Sun City Girls drummer). Crawlspace is Greg Hajic, Joe Dean, Bob Lee, Grady Runyan (not on this album but next time!), and your non-humble narrator Eddie Flowers. WRITE EDDIE FOR MAIL-ORDER INFO: |
