PowerSolo

Add Date: August 12

Artist: PowerSolo

Album: EGG

Label: Crunchy Frog

Genre: Rockabilly, "donkey punk"

Comments: From the onesheet: "'Round Denmark, the moniker [PowerSolo] apparently conjures the trash-rock psychobilly legacy of Hasil Adkins, the Cramps, and Southern Culture on the Skids. PowerSolo may be a power trio, but in this case, the prog-metal acrobatics of Rush are replaced with something they call 'donkey punk.'"

EGG is a very fun, and very well-done record from the folks known as Kim Kix, Atomic Child and J.C. Benz. Start with "Knucklehead" and "Every Little Girl;" Jon Spencer--who could be a more appropriate guest for this style of music?--sings lead vocals on "Aloha New York."
