I have been a fan of The Record Company ever since I heard Bryan Childs spin a track of theirs on Ninebullets radio. Chris Vos, Alex Stiff and Marc Cazorla play a cool sound that is part rockabilly, part rhythm and blues and all great music.
This past July they released their debut EP, Superdead. I went back and forth on what kind of review to write and finally decided to let the band and their music do most of the talking.
My favorites are, well all of them. I like the guitars, the drums and I will never say no to more bass. From the rockin’ beat of Don’t Let me Get Lonely to the gritty drums of Medicine Man and all the way to the soulful This Crooked City – this is awesome music.
Check out this video for Don’t Let Me Get Lonely -
The new EP is available to download for free over on bandcamp or from a link on the band’s website. They also have some nice vinyl for sale.

You can like the guys on their Facebook page and follow them on Twitter @therecordcomp.

While you all are over there, check out the ninebullets radio show from this week. The show had tunes from Have Gun Will Travel, William Elliot Whitmore, Pawn Shop Saints and so many more good bands.
The Young Electrics only need a couple more votes and they will be performing at the Olympics as part of the Emerging Icons. Pop over and click on the little star to help them. Seriously, how many times are you going to have the chance to say, “I picked one of the bands that played the Olympics“?
I have been trying to write the review for Blurred, by San Francisco singer/songwriter Alex Wise for a few months now but can’t seem to finish it. This is difficult for me to say but I get about halfway through the process and find myself so homesick I just can’t continue. The past few years have been full [...]
Now that Scooter is back sleeping nights I proclaim this ’dig myself out from under the mountain of un-reviewed music‘ week. Kicking off the week o’reviewing is Arc & Stones, the debut EP from Brooklyn band Arc & Stones. The guys are Dan Pellarin (vocals), Ben Cramer (guitar), Joe Doino (drums) and Eddy Bayes (bass). I had [...]
So, I was in the mood for some blues and whoosh – blues appeared. Other people get coupons, bills and news updates in the mail while I get blues music. Cool new blues music in the form of the debut release Telegraph Taboo from the Chicago-based band Nick and the Ovorols. This is not a pretty album. The vocals on a few tracks [...]
