Spider - Spider LP [2008]

Spider are Erin from The Spits and his girlfriend. The Lp includes songs from the HoZac 7inch and some unreleased ones also. This is some pretty neat minimalistic punk. Sounds like Spits would if they'd go full experimental while listening to a Devo all time during the recording process. This was self-released by the band.

The Spits - Returning To Their Hometown LP [2006]

Can't get enough of The Spits. Second in The Spits Live vinyl series out on Thriftstore Records. This was recorded on January 6th at Kraftbrau Brewery, Kalamazoo, Michigan. I couldn't find this anywhere since is out of print a long time ago and was probably available in some silly quantities. Thanx to Broose Young for sending us Returning To Their Hometown LP in digital format.

Mind Spiders - Mind Spiders 7" [2010]

Perfect fuzzy garage-y pop record. Yet another project from one of The Marked Men. This time it's about Mark Ryan recording everything on it's own with a little help (on drums) from Greg Rutherford of Bad Sports and High Tension Wires.

Buy it from Dirtnap.

Chinese Telephones & Potential Johns Split 12" [2006]

Potentional Johns is Jeff of The Marked Men solo. His side sounds pretty much like The Marked Men and Hight Tension Wires (also a Marked Men project) but this is much more lo-fi. It's pretty rad like the other side on which Chinese Telephones are rockin' some solid pop-punk in vein of Pegboy, Jawbreaker, Screaching Weasel and i would dare to say i heard some Replacements in their gems. This was out on Pizza Pizza Records and Cheeky Git Records. Can't find any more info on that but i suppose the record is sold out a long time ago.

Mickey - She's So Crazy 7'' [2009]

Mickey are fronted by Mac Blackout (Daily Void, Functional Blackouts) and on this single they offer you 2 instant powerpop hits. Pretty good stuff if you're into glam influenced power pop music. Order your copy directly via HoZac.

Clorox Girls - Demos, Rarities And Early Singles CS [2010]

The tape name pretty much explains itself. A bunch of early demos and singles, outtakes, acoustic gems and more. If you are into Clorox Girls you must not miss this. Unfortunately, this cassete is sold out and was out on Burger Records.
