Black Lips
Playing garage-flavored punk rock with a Southern accent, a messed-up and bluesy undertow, and the gleefully destructive impact of a 15-year-old with a bag of firecrackers, the Black Lips are an Atlanta-based combo who after their debut in 2000 soon developed a reputation as one of the Peach State's wildest bands. The Black Lips consisted of Cole Alexander on lead vocals, guitar, and harmonica, Ben Eberbaugh on lead guitar, Jared Swilley on bass, and Joe Bradley on drums when they released their first single.

This debut succinctly epitomizes all that's special about Atlanta's favorite flower punk sons: the uncontained energy, undeniable songcraft, and unrivaled showmanship are all on full display, as is a newfound sense of the world around them.

'Stripped down and dirty punk rock and roll that would be the perfect soundtrack for a whiskey-filled night of mischief. Youthful and deep-dyed garage rock taken to the next level!' The Atlanta-based BLACK LIPS are heralding the return of three-chord rock and sundering current trends with Bach-like virtuosity.

Now 22 years old, The Black Lips are grizzled veterans and kings of the psychedelic garage rock underground and legends in the scene. Playing the self-coined 'flower punk' in the vein of Nuggets-faves The Seeds and The 13th Floor Elevators, live or on record it's hard to hide the fun these boys have and impossible to describe their unpredictable live show and how uninhibited the audiences are. This record is an amazing primer of Black Lips greatest hits. Contains new versions of tracks taken from their thre [ read more ]
