BEACH BABES - THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA

Here's another BEACH BABE band. Though, this time around it's just BEACH BABES (the previous band probably got pissed that this name was taken) and they aren't your typical surf tunes. This three piece, from  Asheville, NC are loud and heavy enough to pierce an eardrum. BEACH BABES puts down some hardcore/grind noise and not one song reaches over two and a half minutes. There nine-track release, titled The Great Wall of China, is filled with screeches, yells, shouts, transitional songs, and the occasional sample; making for an interesting audio experience. Beware, this is not a release for the easy-listener. Download The Great Wall of China for the wonderful price of NAME YOUR PRICE. If you're kind, leave 'em a few dollars - writing and recording music is not free.

BAD CREEPS - SCUMBAG / EP

Bad Creeps, a band only known by...they aren't known. This allusive three piece (vocals, bass, and drum) have one release, Scumbag / EP, in which they destroy all 'sensible' taste any listener may have. In a horribly lo-fi style; Gerran Thurr, Joe Dobyns, and  Drew Uebel, recorded three songs for this lovely EP. It'd be real cute to think that each band member wrote one song each - TEAMWORK!

These three hardcore/punk songs that Bad Creeps put together are chunky, loose, minimal, dramatic, and charged. Though the recording quality is dirty and inaccessible, it is consistent; remember, musicians are well aware of how their music sounds. These screaming tracks tell tales of stolen beer(really, how could you?), some real bad creeps, and of fucking this planet - metaphorically? literally? In their anguished yells and shouts, it is easy to see how a couple bad break-ups, some shitty friends, and odd school daze can transform one into an angry argyle wearing, PBR drinking, ink stained youth. Or, how pissed a guy will get if you steal his beer; he may not beat you up, but he will yell and scream about it.  No MySpace, no Facebook, just three songs - three FREE songs.
