i made an album nobody heard aka how to make a forgotten album
i think it happened. it must have happened. I remember going to mannys. got some used tape reels on ebay as a gift. we ate a lot. recorded like 20 songs or something. i even think beatrice did cover art. fredo hit the drums really hard. manny played some leads. at one point shane came into master before manny left for hawaii. there was even a big board on the wall with everything. recorded that one song for a movie. kind of disjointed, but kind of a cool record. some ok guitar stuff. maybe like 3 or 4 amazing songs, and a lot of goods maybe 1 or 2 greats. i dont know. not too bad for the amount of stuff we recorded. we made a video. and then i woke up.
and i guess it did come out. but im not sure anybody ever listened to it. but now i know one person did. and as much as you say you dont read stuff or care. it reminds me that we actually did make something. and i’d do it again.
southern california rock n' roll recorded analog with razors edge distortion and patented hard-hitting thump rhythm...tour for life...releases: BOYS GOT A FUTURE LP (Hegemony Records 3-1-11) GIVES YOU HELL SINGLE (Hegemony Records 3-30-10) MY TWO BROOKES LP (Hegemony Records 3-3-09) SEX FOR SAFETY EP (Hegemony Records 2007)
my favorite supremes song ever. who hasn't felt this way before? always wanted to do a cover of it. got the chance this time around during the boys got a future sessions at mannys. gorgeous video by Jasmine Daghighian and her goddesses who did the song justice shot at the smell.
another full-length with Manny! BOYS GOT A FUTURE. meant for this to be more of a telling of my life but turned into a record of drugs, whores, and sleaze. with a a few love songs thrown in. its got some of the best guitar on any of the records. taking on the hard job of following-up the gives you hell video R.Capria did a masterful job.
damn. fredo from the beastie boys was off tour and we went to manny's and did this in 2 takes live. i always heard that all american rejects song as i was driving around and liked the lyrics. i could really relate to thinking about a girl that way. thought the music deserved to have a bit more balls. carmelo lopez did the song justice with his pervilicious video starring the lovely sammie rhodes.
above are the first few tracks off our 2009 Hegemony release "My Two Brookes". me, jonathan from hella and jason from moonrats hunkered down in mannys for a few days and blasted this one out. turned out kinda kool. Even cooler is the cover art you see designed by Seripop which is montreal's Aids Wolf, thx chloe!
we were just young punks for the sex for safety ep a billion years ago, it was an insane rhythm section, my heros jason from rollins band and chris from saccharine trust. the music that kept me alive. manny hit the button and it was just pure youth, i didnt know what i was doing, raw as fuck, but total honesty
you could buy the last record my two brookes from our label Hegemony Records or if you wanna' be crazy WetanDry put out a nifty version in the UK. But truth be told nobody ever was much concerned about money when we hit mannys big red tape button, just wanted a few bucks to get to the next show or whatevers. or if you really wanna be crazy hit that little buy it now and buy one of my copies, i think my fender twin needs new tubes
