85. Estrogen Highs- "Friends, Family, LSD" New Haven, CT, 2008, "Thankyou Very Much" This is one of those songs that doesn't need to be heavily distorted because the energy is simply in the music. They also came out with a record last year! I haven't heard it. This song has my approval, however. 84.The Dirtbombs- "All My Friends Must Be Punished" Detroit, MI, 2005, "If You Don't Already Have A Look" "Ultraglide In Black" is the go-to album, (It was actually recommended to me through this site), but this is the illest of jams. Very laid back vocals against a cacophony of garage riffs. 83.FNU Ronnies- "Meat" Philadelphia, PA, 2008, "Meat EP" This sounds like you would get injured if you were to see it live. 82.Apache Dropout- "Shot Down" Bloomington, IN, 2011, "Shot Down/Sister Burnout 7'" If it weren't so lo-fi, this could be a White Stripes single. The break sounds exactly like Pink Floyd. DOWNLOAD IT. To tell you the truth, the "rateyourmusic" user that supplies all of my garage rock rated this #1 of 2011. I disagree, but maybe you wont! Apache Dropout - Shot Down [2011] - YouTube 81.Bad Sports- "Stuff" Denton, TX, 2012, "Red Overlay/Stuff 7'" The brilliance behind this track is that anybody reading this right now could have wrote it, despite that it's an imeccable pop track, between the buried backups, and the brief start/stops.

75. Ed Schrader's Music Beat- "When I'm In A Car" Baltimore, MD, 2012, "Jazz Mind" I saw Ed first opening for Deerhunter/Dan Deacon/No Age on their "round robin" tour. Blew me away. One man and a snare drum had more energy than the 12 guys I payed to see. He got a bassist but he's still every bit as good. 74. Reigning Sound- "Time Bomb High School" Memphis, TN, 2002, "Time Bomb High School" Probably the leaders of the garage rock scene since the Exploding Hearts died. Excellent chorus. They still make good music, this one is my favorite though. 73. Thee Makeout Party!- "Wreckless Epic" Anaheim, CA, 2008, "Time Bomb High School" Really epic adolescent jam. That's what this is all about though. Never heard the rest of the album. Probably sucks to be honest. 72. The Bobbyteens- "Be My Baby" CA, 2004, "Cruisin' For A Bruisin'" Very excellent "girl-punk" although I hate the term. None of these women are attractive, solidifying the music as amazing. 71. Batman and Robin- "Whatever, I Hate Rock and Roll" ?, 2007, "Who the **** Is Superman?'" "Oh Batman, do you like rock and roll music?" "Whatever. I hate rock and roll, Robin" Last edited by Brad Stengel; 03-30-2013 at 02:40 PM. |
