http://www.soundcloud.com/frustrations/setsDescription: Detroit's FRUSTRATIONS have arrived with their second album,
Negative Reflections, out on X! Records. The 9 tracks on the LP were
recorded and mixed over a series of Midnight-6AM sessions in a dank
warehouse by Danny "Bing" Tomczak (Ex-TERRIBLE TWOS), which may explain
why Negative Reflections has a darker thread of weird vibes running
through its songs when compared to their first LP Glowing Red Pill (X!,
2008). Think the more agressive side of SPACEMEN 3, the off-kilter song
structures of MX-80 SOUND, and a decent dose of the wilder SST/TOUCH & GO
bands for a glimpse into FRUSTRATIONS sound.
Tracklist:
1. The Drill
2. Meaningless
3. Surgeon
4. Shimmer
5. These Woods
6. Exhaust
7.Confusion Kills
8. No Repair
9. Black Lightning

Artist: Johnny Ill Band
Album Title: In the Wintertime b/w Matt Larson, Dan Braun 7"
Catalog number: X!019
Listen:
http://soundcloud.com/xrecords/sets/johnnyillband/Description: It's official- "In the Wintertime" has been declared the new
National Anthem of the Midwest. A great listen if you're sitting and
shivering, waiting for the heat to kick in while you're driving to work.
JOHNNY ILL BAND have been making noise in different incarnations around
Detroit for a few years now. With a solid new lineup, two previous 7"
singles under their belt, this new 3-song 7" on X!, and an already
finished LP coming out early next year, they show no sign of slowing down.
Think the playfully innocent but stone-sincere lyrics of MODERN LOVERS and
the raw melodic sensibilities of early PAVEMENT for a sketch of the JOHNNY
ILL BAND sound. Recorded by Chris Koltay at High Bias Studio in Detroit.
Side A: In the Wintertime
Side B: Matt Larson
