Synopsis

Product Description

The 8th full length release from this noted Columbus Ohio quartet is a more of an unreleased "best of" than an "odds and ends" collection. Several amazing unreleased EP's (one recorded in 2000 for Epitaph, one in 2001 for the now defunct Glazed) make up the bulk of this LP/CD. A few b-sides (Aerosmith's Chip Away The Stone), Devil Dog's covers (Radio Beat, Death Of Mighty Joe) and unreleased cuts from last years Gearhead release "The Night Before The Day The Earth Stood Still" round out this must have collection. Expertly mastered by John Golden, it sounds more like a solid LP than a collection. Enhanced CD includes a 10 minute trailer for a New Bomb Turks DVD that will be released in early 2004.

"This record is a lot of fun. Singles, b-sides and covers that flow together like a proper studio album. Fun and catchy and they even do my fave Aerosmith song. If they lost you a little with some of their Epitaph stuff have no fear, jump right back in with this which is what I did and I'm happy as a tick on a dog to be back."

New Bomb Turks - 'Switchblade Tongues, Butterknife Brains' (

"First release I've ever heard from these Ohio indie-punk rockers. Glad I took the time to listen to this sixteen track compilation of odds, ends, EP tracks and B-sides - from 1999-2002. Cuts I was most impressed with were "Buckeyed Donut", the awesome "Death Of Mighty Joe", "Weekend", the full-throttled rocker "And She Said Yes", Aerosmith's classic "Chip Away The Stone" and "Live Fast, Love Hard, Die Young". Line-up: Eric Davidson-vocals, Sam Brown-guitar, Matt Reber-organ, piano & guitar and Bim Thomas-drums. Should do plenty for fans of the Dead Boys, Supersuckers and Dropkick Murphys."
