I know there have been threads on this topic, but long gone. I am trying to find some new acts to follow; to get onto some new exciting bands. Obviously I dig the Stones and Faces etc. Kings of leon I like a lot. What others can you guys suggest?

I purposely avoided posting any metal bands. But that's funny coming from a guy who's favorite band is a cover band. Cover bands aint rock n roll either, they are background music for getting a buzz on and picking up chicks. It helps to pick a cover band that actually draws chicks though. Nobody really takes it seriously as music. |

Scott Deluxe Drake has a new solo album with Jeff Fieldhouse on guitar. I haven't heard it yet but I am trying to track it down. He never put out a bad album though.
Beasts Of Bourbon, not really new but obsure and resurrected. New album is amazing and has great production that sounds just like a record. I think it's only available in Australia though unless you wanna spend some big bucks.
Tex, Don & Charlie if you like alt country. Didn't even know they existed until I downloaded something off Dime. Will look for the CD but again probably only available in Australia.
Whitey Kirst who opened for the Stooges was really good but it was more of a grungy power trio. The band might also be called Web Of The Spider but I haven't had a chance to go digging around.
Mad Juana. Chick singer and odd instruments but really good stuff. Sammi Yaffa from Hanoi Rocks/New York Dolls/Jetboy's other band.
You can hear both on MySpace. |

good stuff. They just passed thru NY opening for Matt Mays & El Torpedo
SS, if you like Deadstring Brothers, I think you'll dig Leroy Justice. Singers sound eerily similiar. Leroy Justice does the country thing up like Deadstring Bros too but have a little more 'bourbon rock' swagger to them.
Detroit Cobras are doing the Siren Festival this year with NY Dolls. Coney Island is a bit of a trip from PA but its a FREE fest & guarantees to be rockin. |

New Heathens I like, found out about them from this very board not too long ago. North Miss All Stars arent exactly brang new but play some good blues/jam rock and do a nice "Stray Cat Blues." |
|

| Sir Stonesalot |
Sway...I know all about Leroy Justice. I pointed them to a few cool Philly venues. Unfortunately when they played said venue...I couldn't get off work to go see 'em. They had a guesty for me and everything. I was bummed. Same sorta thing happened with The Raveonettes...they gave me guesties and I couldn't go...same night as The Stooges in DC.
I'm not worried about it though, I'll catch 'em both eventually. |

I am working on my list of shows I attended in the past 23 years to be posted here in about 6 years, then you will rue the day. |

I saw DBT's Dirt Underneath show.... I'm a very lucky person to have witnessed what will be forever known as a great and rare rock and roll event... |

Wild Billy Childish and the MBE's - Punk Rock at the British Legion Hall - Best Billy Childish album in 15 years! If anyone can top "Joe Strummer's Grave" this year I will happily rock and roll to it.
The Hex Dispensers - exellent Texas 3 piece punk rock
My fave working band is the King Khan and BBQ Show
The new Detroit Cobras suhhhhhhhhhhks . . . Southern Culture put out a much better covers record this year, and Mary Weiss put out a better record with Greg Cartwright on it. If you're going to buy Detroit Cobras, buy Mink Rabbit or Rat.
I haven't heard the new Beasts of Bourbon yet but their first album, The Axeman's Jazz (1983 but new to you!), is essential listening for anyone who loves the common ground the Stones and the Cramps trod. . .

Agreed on the new Cobras, Nasty. This one lacks...I dunno...the wild abandon of Mink, Love, or even Baby. Not even close to being iPod worthy.
I've been trying to locate a copy of that Wild Billy Childish & MBEs record....I guess now I gotta be on a mission. |
|

| Nasty Habits |
Let me know if you fail to locate one - I can probably help you out. Also, try to find the Hex Dispensers on your search.
Check out Are You An Assassin? on Myspace - not everyone at RO's cuppa, but it should kick your shiny metal ass . . .

best keyboard player I've ever heard - on any planet - was the origial bassist on the early Detroit Cobra records
speaking of that old, weird dude.... ck out Bulldog |
|

Sway, are you talking about Eddie Harsch?
As I recall he wasn't actually bassist until their second album . . .
|

I saw the Detroit Cobras once but it's a total blur. I will try to listen back in the next few days. I think it was in the middle of a 4 shows in 3 days across 3 counties weekend. |

Of course.
Here's a recent photo of him. The photographer really captured his good side.

Glad I'm not the only one wondering what happened... Tied But True is kinda like that show we saw in Philly, just not in sync.... |

Check out Radio Moscow. They take their cues a bit more from Cream and Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac than the Stones per se but these kids are allright.
