I use a whole slew of pedals with tube amps mainly, my favorites are the good Old Big Muff and a pedal called the Static Egg made by a local guy, he actually used a sharpie to label it's plain sheet metal enclosure. The Egg gets the killer old school hollowed out fuzz and a thicker, meaner slightly more modern fuzz too. By tweaking the "static" knob it sounds like a ratted out speaker or a pedal that is seriouly broken, crackly even, in short I am in love LOL. Dan Electreau said:

For a cheap and cheerful good sounding fuzz I use a Danelectro french toast, .

I used to used a Dan Electreau Grilled Cheese but then I switched to this:

I like being able to control the amount of cheese to bread to signal ratio.

I use a super cheap Lafayette Mic that was made in the sixties, instant distorted low fi tones because it cannot handle much else LOL. I sometimes set up one regular mic and then the old one for distortion effects and go between the two as the song warrants. Bob Log III, a low fi one man blues band sings with a motorcycle helmet on which has an old phone built into it, freakin awesome sound and it looks crazy too! Tight white's suggestion will work too, even little old solid state amps can work, the Guy from the Strokes I think sang through and old peavey.

Good luck and let us know what you end up doing.

I "spread the word" in my weekly music column and my radio shows.

Most people my age made their musical beds years and years ago. My cousin once observed that most people just like what they liked in high school. I don't waste much energy on trying to convert.

Then again, at least one NM state legislator i know subscribes to The Big Enchilada.

I try to preach every chance I get to my co-workers, but it falls on deaf ears.

I like to think they both mean the same thing... Michael Kaiser said:

Oh yeah, I'm hip to the Crusaders Of Love. I love their album, played a track from it on my last podcast, Cheap Thrills. The Conjugal Visits said:

If you like the hearts, check out crusaders of love.
They are on tour now from France, and if you are lucky you will get to see them
I am extremely bummered that they are not coming anywhere close to Colorado.

It's "1 2 X U". The original is played by Wire, but I don't know who played that cover version.

they're a good stack, but there's a bunch more that stand up just as well. "no one left to blame"
has the berlin brats' "psychotic" on it. "back seat love" volumes 1 & 2 both have some hits on 'em. the "powerpearls" series is equally fulfilling in the rare-and-hard-to-find category and offers up a slightly less "rough edge" to it. there's certainly no shortage of great comps to dig through- each and every one has got at least one or two good ones on it.....and that's just it- most of the tunes outside of the one or two standout jems are filler.

surprise surprise!

I like it!

If you're going to be a noise band that doesn't sync up, the only band you should be is Old Skull

you won't make it through this one......ahhh germans

I enjoyed Damaged and The First Four Years but kind of lost interest in their later stuff.

It seems almost unlikely that anyone will ever form an all female hardcore band unless a new all male or mixed group that is an equivelant becomes really popular enough to be an inspiration.
