    • John: Assume you mean the Real Kids LP, if so, it's on Ugly Pop Records on vinyl.

      Here's a link:

      http://uglypop.bigcartel.com/

       

      Ugly Pop has released a ton of cool stuff, mainly reissues of long out of print recs. Lots of early Canpunk singles, ie The Spys, Hot Nasties, Simply Saucer and loads more. All pressed and packaged with loving care. My favourite Canadian record label.

    • DAMN! Now it's 2015 , and this is the first I've heard of it .  I heard they were MAKING the album , but , we all knew that that meant it could be another year.....Well , I sure hope I can find it. I know it's not very "Punk Rock'' to buy your music in an actual record store , but , i'LL TRY THAT , FIRST.

      HAPPY NEW YEAR , EH?

      John.

    • 2014 did bring a new Real Kids LP, Shake....Outta Control their first LP in many many years. It was long awaited for these ears and didn't quite live up  to what i was expecting. Although on repeated listens, it's been winning me over more each play.

       

      And finally the new Mother's Children LP, Lemon which beat The Real Kids at their own game. Pure power pop with loadsa hooks and guitars that play together so well. Easily one of my fave LP's of the year! These guys are off to Europe sometime this year, just wish they'd play some of the cities that within driving distance prior.

    • Mine def is Drop by Thee Oh Sees, and VLMA's self stitled release.

      Skull Theft is coming out with a split with Ratboiler and they also have their own album coming out too, so that's exciting. VLMA's starting to record in January/Febuary for their next release, and anything released by them is gold. Old Indians record is coming out soon, too. That's all I got speculated so far.

    • Radio What Wave Playlist Jan 1/2015 All 2014/late 2013 recordings

      First off, Happy New Year from Radio What Wave!! This show will only be recordings from 2014 and late 2013 as we highlight some of the releases that made it to WW HQ's. This will NOT be a best of, nor top 10 or any of that crap! Simply some really cool music that we came across and hopefully you too will dig some of this!! Big Thanx to all the labels, bands, artists that still send us actual physical copies and links for downloads! Much appreciated!!

      1. The Mogs....Swamp Love...from the El'Mogamundo! CD. Had to start the show with this one as our good pal Rob Munro played guitar/sang/wrote the songs and it was his long time dream to get this CD out. Luckily, Rob was able to get this out before his untimely passing this summer. We were pals with Rob for approx 25 years as I still remember him coming up to us at a Gruesomes show at Call The Office and raving and ranting about how good The Gruesomes were and how he and his pal James Bond were starting a band that was going to be similar...and the birth of the Frankenstein 5! Rob played a big part in the London Ontario scene for many years, playing in bands like the mentioned F5, The Mood, Groove Things, Scratching Post, solo and The Mogs prior to moving to Burlington Ontario several years ago. And then the bug caught him again and we re-connected in Hamilton, seeing many cool bands like Magic Christian, The Cynics, Ugly Beats and so many others. From there he helped form The Noble Savages which you can hear later on in this show. Miss your rambling Rob!
      We also lost several other local musicians this past year, Jake Proctor, Rob Brent (The Demics, Mettle) and Jeff Depew (Legend Killers, 63 Monroe, Taplash, Hogbitch, Scratching Post and many more).

      2. Lionel Lodge....Putting Down My Gun...from The Agitator CD. Lionel is presently in Austria where he plays regularaly, but promises to be back in London on Friday Feb 6th for a show at Fitzrays.

      3. Roger Zuraw....Keep Your Mouth Shut...from a CD single and written on the front 'For The Downtrodden and the Oppressed' a timely message. And a big shout out to Roger as not only a regular listener, but a frequent phone caller to Radio WW!! Thanx Roger!

      4. Dustbin Flowers...Saturday's Ashes...from their II CD. Local combo featuring the man of a 1000 bands, Jeffy B. They play out fairly often, so catch them if you can.

      5. Eugene Ripper...Punks and Pushers...from the Hangman CD. Eugene was in the early 80's Toronto combo, Stark Naked and The Fleshtones, not to be confused with The Fleshtones from NYC.

      6. WIlko Johnson....Going Back Home...from the CD of the same name in collaboration with Roger Daltrey. Wilko was diagnosed with terminal cancer and had just a few months left. Roger phoned him up and said 'wanna make a record', to which Wilko replied 'I've only got a little time left, so we gotta do it quick' which they did. Out popped this marvelous CD featuring Wilko's staccato guitar burst and Roger's hearfelt vocals. Miraculously Wilko had surgery and is cancer free and continued on playing after a recovery hiatus. For those not familiar, Wilko was the original guitarist in Dr Feelgood and Roger sings for The Who.

      7. Jim Jones Revue....Catastrophe...from the Savage Heart LP. UK combo who finally made it to London Ontario and put on an absolute Killer show last January!! One of my fave shows of this past year! Since then, the band has decided to pack it in.

      8. Vintage Experience...You Don't Look Good To Me....from a demo from this Oneida based combo. Guitarist vocalist Ryan In The Red, had a long time show on CHRW called In The Red and presently does a podcast on The Garagepunk Hideout called Rock City Madness. Check it out, you won't be disappointed.

      9. The Mongrels....7 and 7 Is....recorded live at APK 8/3/14 as part of the Rock'n'Roll Rent Party that happens the first sunday of the month. Next one happens on Sunday Jan 4th at 3PM and features the next band....

      10. Straight Jacket....Jesus Love Porn Stars....from a recent demo and as mentioned above, SJ will be playing at 3PM this coming sunday at APK in downtown London Ontario.

      11. Holy Roller...Bicycle Day....recent demo fromt his 3 piece pop combo who recently played a Rock'n'Roll Rent Party.

      12. Pacanomad....Heaven Can Wait....from their recent Restless EP CD. Yet another combo who has played the Rock'n'Roll Rent Party!

      13. Frankie And Jimmy....Let It Rock....from their Scream The Blues LP. Hamilton based 2 piece blues combo.

      14. catl....Save Myself....from This Shakin' House LP. 2 piece Toronto based rock'n'roll/blues combo that play London fairly regularly. And ALWAYS put on a killer show!!

      15. O Lendario Chucrobillyman....Midnight Jungle....from his Man Monkey CD that came out on Off Label Records from Germany. One man band from Brazil that tours the world and is on my list of bands to see....maybe someday!

      16. Vikki Vortex and The Cumshots....Countdown To A Breakdown....from the latest Garagepunk Hideout compilation download. This is their 10th download covering the world of garagepunk music and VV come from Germany.

      17. Great Dismal Swamis....Loch Ness Lightning....from their Fandango 7" and this is another combo that i've connected via the garagepunk hideout. Check them out, it's free to join.

      18. Delusionaires....The Scrump....a recent single on Hidden Volume Records from Philidelphia. This label has released a ton of cool singles and are well worth checking out. The Delusionaires come from Florida, hence the hot'n'greasy vibes!


      19. Excelsior.....Pornos...from their brand new 7" EP on It's Trash Records from London Ontario. The record is called Punk Floyd EP and you can pick it up locally at Speed City, Grooves, Village Idiot etc....there's a rumour that a couple of these guys may have been in a combo called The Dropouts who left London several years ago and re-surfaced in Vancouver, releasing a couple of CD's during their existence.

      20. Excelsior....Wildlife Death Match...from the It's From London 7" EP on It's Trash Records. BTW, It's Trash is also a radio show here on CHRW, broadcasting every 2nd friday at 6PM.

      21. Heart Attack Kids...Eh Ok...from their recent 7" EP on Speed City/It's Trash Records. Local 2 piece garagepunk combo that might be appearing at the next Kissin' The Carpet show in Hamiton Ontario.

      22. Noble Savages....Music Will Kill You...from the brand new Marshmallow Generation LP on It's Trash Records. Noble Savages as you should all know by now, call Hamilton Ontario home and have recently acquired legendary drummer Stacey Case for future draft choices.

      23. Hurricane And Able....Day More Day....from their most recent download and the 3rd for this Toronto/London based combo. Still waiting for these guys to play here in London.

      24. King Tuff....Headbanger....from the Black Moon Spell CD. Had to fade this out as we the bell rang and the ref stopped the show....back with more next week.

      Big Thanx for the phone-ins, emails, facebook messages and Heys!!! From the above listing, guess it was a pretty good year for music....at least for my ears! We'll continue with some more songs from 2014 next week and then maybe do a special on something or other....you'll have to tune in to find out as i haven't decided yet. Next week same time, same channel.

    • Radio What Wave Playlist December 18/2014  All Xmas Songs!!

      1. Marshmallow Overcoat....Santa Fuzz....from their double Best Of LP that came out earlier this year. And vocalist Timothy Gassen also released the excellent Knights Of Fuzz book that makes a great Xmas gift for you or yours!

      2. Joey Ramone....Merry Christmas ( I Don't Want To Fight Tonight)....from the 2012 Ya Know? CD.  Way different than the more known Ramones version.

      3. Mack Rice...Santa Wants Some Lovin'...from Trailer Trash Christmas CD.

      4. Mojo Nixon....Trim Yo Tree....as above. It's a 1999 compilation CD put out by Platinum Entertainment.

      5. The Fleshtones....Canadian Christmas...from the Stocking Stuffer CD on Yep Roc from 2008. Bassist Ken Fox who just happens to be Canadian, penned this little upbeat number. Caught The Fleshtones live this spring in Hamilton Ontario and as always, the most energetic and real rock'n'roll band on the planet!!! And that was the last time I got to hang out with Rob Munro who passed away this summer!

      6. The Fleshtones...Mr. Santa Claus...from the above.

      7. The Fleshtones....Christmas with Bazooka Joe....from the above.

      8.  The Gruesomes...Santa Claus....from the Unchained 12" EP on Primitive Records. They used to change the words a little bit when playing it live around us.....something about a new What Wave hahahahaha!

      9. The Sonics....Don't Believe In Christmas...from the Black Christmas compilation.

      10. Lazy Cowgirls....Sock It To Me Santa...from a Bomp 7" and originally done by Bob Seger back in the mid 60's.

      11. 63 Monroe....White Christmas....from a single they released in 1984. One side mono, the other stereo and meant for radio play.

      12. Bitchlove....All I Want For Christmas Is Some White Stuff....local 2 piece combo and from a demo.

      13. Bitchlove...Santa Eats Your Cookies While You Sleep.... as above.

      16. MX 80 Sound....Christmas With The Devil....from their American Music CD from several years back.

      17. Plan 9....Merry Christmas....from a 1984 7" on Midnight Records. Plan 9 made several trips to London from about the mid 80's to early 90's. Each time they had a slightly different lineup and a slightly different sound moving from 60's punk/psychedelic all the way to jazz rock with psychedelic overtones. Always a fun time to see Plan 9 playing live.

      18. Thee Eviltones....It's Christmas...a demo from last year. UK combo.

      19. Shonen Knife....Space Christmas....from a 1989 7"

      22. The Shanks....Christmas Star....from their The Dark Richard Show CD from 2010. Orangeville Ontario duo who are big in Germany and almost unknown around these parts. Doesn't make sense at all....

      23. The Cheepskates....Christmastime With You....from the Midnight Christmess compilation LP from 1984.

      24. The Rooks....Christmas....from a 1992 demo CD. NYC based powerpop combo.

      Big thanx for all the phonecalls, emails, facebook messages and Heys!!! Taking next week off and Megan (from CHRW's Play Dead Radio) will be hosting and playing even more Christmas tunes.  Back on January 1st in the usual time slot!! Happy Holidays!!

    • Radio What Wave Playlist December 11/2014

      1. The Subhumans....Model Of Stupidity....live at Cedar Lounge, London Ontario Canada 6/12/1981 and this goes out to vocalist Wimpy Roy who passed away earlier this week. This was The Subhumans first of 3 appearances here in London. London was one of their better shows as I caught the Toronto show at The Edge the day before or after this one and there were very few out to see the band.

      2. The Subhumans....Big Picture....from the Incorrect Thoughts LP, original pressing on Friends Records (later releases had a slightly different mix and were not authorized by the band). Check the rear cover of this one as one of the gig fliers has London's Zellots listed, during their Vancouver tenure. You can read all about The Zellots in Mongrel Zine 9 and 10.

      3. The Subhumans....Behind The Smile....from the Vancouver Independence LP on Friends Records, early 80's.

      4. The Subhumans....Dead At Birth...from the Incorrect Thoughts LP. This LP was one of my faves when it first came out as lyrically it was spot on to what was happening and Mike Graham's guitar work is stupendous. Watching Mike play guitar live is always jaw dropping.

      Around here I was yammering about Wimpy Roy, The Subhumans appearances in London and playing in the background is the song many of you were singing along with....we don't care what you say....FUCK YOU!!!  Simon Less.

      5. Subhumans....I Got Religion....from the New Dark Age Parade CD from the reunion circa 2006. 25 years later and nothing lost or gained sound or lyric wise.

      6. DOA....Singin' In The Rain....from the Let's Wreck The Party LP from1985. Wimpy Roy used to sing this song live for many years when he was bassist for DOA.

      7. DOA....Liar For Hire...from the War on 45 LP from 1982 and the first DOA LP to bring the band to a bigger audience. And a FUCKING Great LP!! This one has never lost it's appeal to me in over 30 years!

      8 Dead Rabbits....No Way....from the Boot To The Head CD from July 2002. This was a reunion of a few of the London and area bands that used to play at the Cedar Lounge here in London. London's home of punk rock/new wave/whatever until closing in May 1982. Spent way too much time at this club. This was a request that goes out to KP, who also supplied The Subhumans live tape that started the show!! 44i

      9. Heart Attack Kids...Platonic Love Bomb....brand new 7" EP on Speed City/It's Trash Records from here in London. Fairly new 2 piece combo that are loads of fun live.

      10. Heart Attack Kids...Shoulda Came From Japan.... as above.

      11. The Pack AD...Night Crawler...from a CD compilation called House Of Burners. Sounding nothing like the Pack AD that we all know and love, this is a Thee OC's cover. BTW, Pack AD were excellent as always when they played live last week at the London Music Hall.

      12. The Holy Roller....Bicycle Day... from a recent demo of this London based pop trio. Caught them live at the Rock'n'Roll Rent Party and they are a really tight pop combo that are well worth checking out.

      13. Dave Rave....4th Of July....recent demo and Dave will be in Hamilton tonite as part of the Gord Lewis Band and I'm  pretty much positive they will be playing some Teenage Head songs.

      14. Mother's Children....The Gang Is Back...from their brand new LP Lemon, on Mammoth Cave Records. Ottawa powerpop combo that opened for Paul Collins Beat here in London at our big power pop show a coupla years back.

      15. Mother's Children...Out Of The Dark... as above.

      16. King Tuff...Black Holes...from the Moon Spell CD that came out recently.

      17. Sparks...Throw Her Away....from the Big Beat Lp from 1976. I stupidly didn't go see Sparks when they were at This Ain't Hollywood within the last year or so.

      18. The Quick....No No No....from the Mondo Deco LP from 1976. West coast boy band that Kim Fowley was involved with. And ya, they do sound a lot like Sparks and that ain't a bad thing.

      19. The Sweet....No You Don't....from the Desolation Boulevard LP from 1975.

      20. The Tubes....Don't Touch Me There...from a greatest hits CDand originally from 1976.

      21. Slade....Mama We're All Crazee Now....1972 and from a greatest hits CD. Slade played London Ontario and the local review in the London Free Press said they were one of the worst bands ever.....reviewers probably do that on purpose as they know something like that will cause all us crazies to fall in love with the band!

      22. Sparks...This Town Ain't Big Enough For The Both Of Us....from the Kimono My House LP from 1974 and this song is stuck in my noggin'.

      23. Hackamore Brick....Oh! Those Sweet Bananas....from a recent Ugly Pop re-issue, but originally released back in 1970. Feel those Velvet Underground vibes.

      24. Brian McHahon.....NYDNY.....from the 17 Volts CD. Former Electric Eel member's solo CD and it's a good one! This song summarizes the late 70's get outta town and move to the big city feeling that so many had back then.

      25. Eugene Ripper....Tech No Me....from the brand new Hangman CD. Toronto based and former member of Stark Naked and The Fleshtones.

      Thanx to all that tuned in, phoned, emailed, messaged and said Hey!!! Much appreciated as it's all about the music!
      Next week it's all Xmas tunes.....not your usual holiday tunes.

    • I wouldn't say record, but the first time I saw VLMA live, it became clear to me on what I wanted to hear in music outside of stoner metal. They made music like I wanted my drawings to look. Wild, kill'em all experimental, and scumboppin.

      Life Stinks

      No Bails

      Diarrhea Planet

    • So what d'you reckon the best new garage punk bands are?? It'd be nice to discover a few more for the record collection..


      I'll start.
      These guys have gotta be up there surely??

      I have all 13 if you are still looking for them.

      Awesome! Yes, I'm still interested. Let me know how you think you can share them. Maybe a zip file?

      And do you have any other complete series of podcasts? I lost all of my Primordial Ooze/Savage Kicks, too.

    • I saw Nick Lowe with Los Straitjackets (But ,sadly , not Ian MacLagan.) , last week.  His new Xmas songs are actually quite good. AND , he did "I wish it Could Be Christmas Every Day". Los Straitjackets' Chritmas album is very good , tho' it's more or less The Ventures' Christmas album updated.

      The Polkaholics' Christmas EP is really cool , esp. "Sausage Balls , Sausage Balls , Kishka all the way , Oh , if we could find ourselves an all - you - can - eat buffet , HEY !".

    • i JUST HEARD ABOUT ONE BY AN AL GREEN (Not THEE Al Green , The baby makin' music superstar gone homophobic preacher, who still sings secular music , but makes his audience do most of his singing..), calleD "sANTA cLAUS gOT bOMBED". How can that not be great ? aNYONE EVER HEARD IT?

    • December 13, 2014 3:57 PM CST
    • I like Gentleman Jesse's "Christmas Hangover":  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DVNV3wez5so

    • GREAT SHOW , STEVE !

      I'll be seeing Chris from The Polkaholics on Tuesday , probably , I'll tell him you played "Yahkov" (sic) , tho' he is'nt on that track. Polkaholics now probably have their best lineup EVER , with Chris Linster , of the late , great King Vitamin aka Giant , a former stand - in , now full - time , Bassist , and the return of Action Jackson on Drums. Their NYE show , at the majestic Dank Haus Ballroom, is always a good time , even tho' the squares have found out about it.

      BTW - "WEN - SESS - LAS".   Have a good week ,  JOHN.
