Hit me with all the best bands you have. I have been stuck in a rut with these genres for awhile now and have a hard time finding anything new that's worthwhile.

I tend to lean towards the more punk influenced Psychobilly mostly, but I love a nice slow reverb guitar piece as well.

Some local cats;

The Howlers on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads

Just because.

Matej · 10-26-2009, 06:16 PM

Saw the word 'surf.'
Don't know if this has anything to do with it.

*ronmcdon* · 10-26-2009, 06:20 PM

i think the genre was at it peak during the late 90's/early 00's.
I liked the bands with the more authentic sounds.
usually they came from europe (esp sweden).
Of course the orginal stuff and the obsure stuff from the compilations were fun too.

The stuff you posted is really more psycho-billy.
Psycho-billy & rockabilly aren't the same.
Didn't really care for it too much when it got diluted in punk,
even though I enjoy certain types of punk.

You might like the annual 'Viva Las Vegas' weekend festival that takes place in Vegas every Easter holiday.

I'll see what I can dig up on Youtube.

The only thing remotely Psychobilly I ever listened to was Tiger Army.

ESmorz · 10-26-2009, 07:28 PM

Ah fuck my life... Psychobilly*

I usually proofread better than that.

Some Tiger Army is a guilty pleasure even if it is kinda poppy Emobilly.

chitownguy · 10-26-2009, 08:16 PM

Batmobile

Ill post some more when I remember some names and find videos.

*ms!3* · 10-26-2009, 09:07 PM

tiger army is ok. along with other related bands.

hardcore/thrash is over everything in my book though.

nothing beats ss decontrol, gang green, gg allin, black flag, mdc, ect.

Cant go wrong there.

If you want good surf rock check out your local REAL used record shop. Itll be vinyl but it sounds better. Plus youll find stuff there youve never heard and will never hear of again!

ESmorz · 10-28-2009, 01:53 AM

My dad has entire book case full of vinyl. Most of it being surf rock and psychedelic.

It's what I grew up with.

*ronmcdon* · 10-28-2009, 03:16 AM

good call with Gene Vincent.

Here's a couple of the orginial stuff I can think of.
Good place to start would really to check out the 'Sun' stuff.
Then go on to some of the better compilations.

Carl Perkins - Honey Don't (not the most accessible, but i love this Sun artist)

Wanda Jackson - Funnel of Love

'Demented Are Go' cover of 'Funnel of Love' (one of the better psychobilly groups imo)

Johnny Burnett - Train Kept a Rollin

Johnny Horton - I'm Comin Home

Hayden Thompson - Rockabilly Gal

Ronnie Self - Bop A Lena

Joe Clay - 16 Chicks

Ray Harris - Come on Little Baby

George Thumper Jones - How Come It

Andy Starr - Rocking Rollin Stone

Charlie Feathers - Can't Hardly Stand It

Ray Smith - Shake Around
