SNOOTY GARBAGEMEN - s/t LP shoegaze for whom chart statistics say

for whom chart statistics say little

rather than the standard images of railroad tracks and sharecropper shacks that have become cliches of blues iconography

cleaned up the artwork and even added some period photos from his own personal collection

Perhaps the band - guitarists TOM and DAVE SHANNON and drummer DAN HATCH - already knew that things with Alpo weren’t going to pan out (he would soon leave the band and be replaced by MERLE ALLIN

IV is an unapologetically ambitious record made by a group of musicians who are at the peak of theirs powers

SNOOTY GARBAGEMEN - s/t LP shoegaze for whom chart statistics sayNicely priced. Highly recommended. Houston, TX based trio more than delivers with 14 short, sharp shocks of raw garage rock, most little more than two minutes long. The rhythms rampage, the guitar explodes in bursts of nervous frenzy, and bandleader Tom Triplett sneers and snarls with the best of 'em, whether you want to go back to the Nuggets era or turn to the current scenes in Detroit and the Bay Area.
