I do think that those bands are a completely different form of "folk punk" than the others in the postings. I really do like Johnny Hobo though.

Not sure if they're the same as the above types of bands, but there's a lot of good newer folk punk bands I'm into. Mischief Brew, Saw Wheel, Evan Greer, Andrew Jackson Jihad, Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains to name a few...there are lots of different styles and types of folk punk, but hopefully you'll like some of them.

Soothsayers "I Don't Know", Wild Things "I'm Not The One", Intruders 'Now That You Know" and a million others..check out Paul Messis for modern-day mood!
myspace.com/thepaulmessissound

Isn't Shutdown 66 like that? I use to have it downloaded. I want to hear Paul Messis suggest some tracks.

Jeez, ya gotta include the Dutch Outsiders in this one!
Also, the NEW ENGLAND TEEN SCENE series specializes in the moody folk punkers, I'm thinkin'...

The only record i have is destroy all astromen.For this record:In "pop corn" crabula you hear someone talking here and there,"Joker's Wild" has a vocal intro,In "mystery meat" there is a guy talking again,"Heavies" and "Madness in the strees" have a vocal intro too,"Mystery science 300 love theme" is a real song with lyrics and stuff."Landlocked has a vocal intro,"gargantua's last stand" has a vocal intro."Destination Venus" is a song with vocals like "mystery science......",and "the shadow know has just another vocal intro.

To sum up only "Mystery....." and "Destination Venus" have "real" vocals,and they are pretty awesome songs too.Hope i helped.

I have come across two songs that have vocals, one on Experiment Zero and one called Mermaid Love.  I generally don't like vocals on surf rock with the exception of Dick Dale but I really like how it works out.  does anyone know if they have any other songs with vocals?

Well I could never work out what the hell they're singing either, but apparently it's "smoking big cigars, you belch and you fart."

I always get a kick out of Lance Monthly, an online publication put together by old New Mexico rocker and Lance Records owner Dick Stewart. This month he's got an interview with Larry Tamblyn of The Standells.

From the page that Kopper linked to: UPDATE: Panasonic is in fact ceasing production of the SL-1200MK6 model specifically, while other Technics turntable models will live on. Phew! Sincere apologies for the misunderstanding.

There See still enough other companies who build good or even better turntables.of course the 1210 is the Standard dj player!

Thing is the trend is still and will continue to be relatively niche and thus unpractical for a massive electronics film like Panasonic who buy and sell on scales too large for the industry. I'd imagine though that smaller tutntable companies will be loving this as it means they have one less competitor and can thus better corner the market.

It does seem strange, especially that since the creation of record store day, that a lot of the inventory of vinyl has actually increased especially in many indie stores. Seattle's vinyl sales have really done much better in the last three years than it did the earlier part of the decade.

I assume any that are out there will be holding their value for a long time. I always wanted to get one of those 1200's. I forget, do they play at 78 rpm too? I picked up a Stanton STR8-80 several years back for that reason, and I think because it was a little cheaper than the Technics although very similar. So if they are the standard, and they can't sell enough to maintain production, then what is the future for the other makes out there? My other thought would be, is the drop off in demand due largely to the current economy, and will the demand pick up when things improve?

Yeah, you're right. The nob on the left is the power on/off nob.

I thought those two small buttons on the front near the left were what you used to change between 45 and 33. That knob with the red light? I remember some kind of turntable that had a pitch thing like that. When the red light came on, you knew youhad correct speed.

Yeah, the pitch slider on the right, that's what I meant. Didn't remember the term. Anyway,I never saw the point. Some turntables had a pitch adjuster that was more like a knob that was hard to twist but I think those were on Sony turntables. It had like a little light that would let you know when you finally were on the correct pitch. Definetly a need for 45 and 33 knob.

Do you mean the pitch adjust slider on the right, or the 45/33 speed adjustment knob on the left?

Rockin Rod Strychnine said:

Well that stinks. It was a good product. Only thing I didn't like was the speed adjuster (but I'm not a DJ either).

scroll down to , " Queen Of The Night", and click it. That's Peter and Mary Saving Grace , with your's truly on drums. http://www.terminal-boredom.com/toomuchjunk24.html

Really dig Ziggy Stardust. Cheers for putting this on my radar.

Thanks Steve!
Big thrills to everyone!

Hopefully by now you have partaken of the ghoulish delights of my latest Big Enchilada Podcast, Spooktacular 2010. If not it's HERE.


But I'm not the only GaragePunk podcaster to work the spooky side of the street in recent days. For the ultimate in rock 'n' roll Halloween sounds, bob for some of these razor-laden apples:

* Uncle Yah-Yah has risen from his swampy grave and blessed us with a brand new "Haunted Shack Theater" Halloween Special. Of course all of his episodes are appropriate for this most wonderful time of the year.

* The Mal Thursday Show from Austin, Texas  gives us two hours of classic spook rock on his latest episode "Halloween Special."

* There's Halloween Italian style on the latest episode of  Kicks from the Boot, "My Baby Likes Scary Movies."

* From the great nation of The Netherlands there's the latest Rock 'n Roll Rampage titled "Werewolf," I Dig You the Most." 

* While it's not an "official" GaragePunk Network podcast, Radio Free Bakersfield always is a hoot and this week on Episode 203 Ted Pilgrim of Satan's Pilgrim is the guest host, spinning Halloween rock.

And of course, you can still get my own previous Halloween podcasts

Try this link, it's done by a member of this forum (nope, it's not me)... http://ocanadarm.blogspot.com/ There's usually a fair bit of Canadian stuff on this one.

I have the first Purple Toads album on cassette and the second one on vinyl. I have a pretty decent collection of Canadian punk. I was hoping there was a website that had hard-to-find songs available to download.

"Night Prowler" by AC/DC!! Even inspired a real serial killer! Plus "Midnight Rambler" by the Stones.

I totally forgot about this. Took a look on that myspace page (something I couldn't do really before because of crappy internet connection/computer problems ) and all I can find is that it played at some film festival last year. Nothing else. Oh well.

I was very heavy into Teenage Fanclub in the 90's, also liked Shonen Knife. Saw TF with Mudhoney once, then once with Afghan Whigs, I think. I finally listened to TF because of the Big Star comparisions, but I ended up liking them so much because they use a lot of Neil Young chord sequences... a lot of them.
