NNB - Slack 7"

As with The Suburbs, NNB also hailed from Minneapolis, MN. Although they did not release much material, they have always been one of my favorites from the area. Guitarist/Vocalist Mark Freeman was the driving force of the band. With tracks up to par with the likes of Television & Pere Ubu, they have often been described as producing "a wall of sound". The Slack/New World 7" was released in 1978 on Wave 7 records. They released two tracks on the Big Hits of Middle America Volume III on Twin Tone records 1979. Lastly there was one track off the No Magazine Flexi in 1979. There's also a video of One Mat Room recorded live at Hurrah's in 1981 floating around on You Tube. I also ripped the audio from this video and have included it with the 7". Enjoy!

The Suburbs - World War III 7"

Although it took me about a year, I finally got all Riot Fest 2010 up for you. Unfortunately I wont be making the trip out to Chicago this year. Next up for the videos and live audio I got the Frontier 30th Anniversary show featuring the the Flyboys, Rikk Agnew, the Avengers, & the Middle Class just to name a few. But I'll take a little break from the videos and post a couple records, which I have not done for some time.

The Suburbs second 7" was released in 1979, again on Twin Tone records. They serve up some more poppy weirdness in the same vein as their debut E.P. They would go on to release their first full length In Combo in 1980. You can find their first record here. Enjoy!

Riot Fest 2010 - Articles of Faith - Live At The AAA

Here's the second night of their two show reunion. I think this might have been the best show of the entire fest. They played songs from their entire catalouge, from their first 7" to the second full-length, & everything else in between (even a Johnny Cash cover). Larry Damore of Bhopal Stiffs/Pegboy sang back up vocals on American Dreams. They even blew two fuses throughout the show. The band also invited Jeff Dean onstage to play guitar with them. He engineered the bands new album New Normal Catastrophe. There was one track at the end I was not familiar with. Any help with the title for that one would be appreciated. Stay tuned for some Zero Boys and Negative Approach!
