New Oblivians!
Is there any doubt in anyone's mind that IN THE RED has gotta be the #1 "garage" label out there right now?
I mean, they've been releasing some of the best, most provocative rock'n'roll of various garage/punk/noise stripes now for two decades, and then yesterday the news spread that the almighty OBLIVIANS will be recording their first studio LP in 15 years, to be released later this year on ITR... and then today I see that ITR's Larry Hardy is also helping Poison Ivy resurrect the Cramps' Vengeance Records!

I don't quite understand how anyone on this site who appreciates trashy garage/punk/rock'n'roll could NOT be into the Oblivians, but I guess that's just me. :/

This is all great news. The fact that The Oblivians have a new album released through ITR certainly makes them the 1# garage label out there right now!
I love Voodoo Rhythm too but c'mon... This is monumental news!!

Jack solo ain't the Oblivians. Just like the Reigning Sound ain't the Oblivians. You should judge the Oblivians by the Oblivians!

Yeah, the American Slang is the closest that I think Jack solo was to Oblivians.
I wonder why this is not on Goner, ITR better distribution, maybe?

I was wondering that myself. You're probably right about better distro, esp. considering the fact that this release will probably see a lot more pressed than any previous Goner release, more than likely.
Is that an envelope in Larry's hand? If so, I wonder what's in it... ;)

I reckon that envelope holds the name of the new bass player.

I would assume it is more of a business decision/ conflict of interest for Eric. If you were a Goner Artist would you want the guy who is supposed to be promoting your band spending time/ money on his own band. Also, won't put the band in a position where Jack and Greg have an issue with Goner (Which Eric owns) on the business front . Both business ventures gross a lot of money, but you have to divvy out the Net (which I am sure is a lot smaller).

Love, love the news! And In the Red resurrecting Vengeance....good stuff. What is Ivy up to, and is there any news on unreleased (officially) Cramps coming out?

I saw Jack in London just before Xmas with Harlan T Bobo and Limes as a revolving band on stage and it was a cracking good show.
It makes sense to go with In The Red as they release Reigning Sound and Parting Gifts. No conflict of interest which might arise if it's released on Goner.
Personally I don't give a shit who releases it, can't wait to hear it. Scion AV released an Oblivians song last year, which I guess was a new recording and sounded pretty good.

RJFait replied to Reverend Stevee Ray's discussion the Beatles ... why NOT ?"I don't hate the Beatles, I just think the bulk of their work was gutless pop. At some point in the middle they started getting better drugs or something and put out a few good records. Then, they went right back to gutless pop."
