Product Description

From Amazon.co.uk

The Von Bondies' Lack Of Communication is another rough gem of a garage-punk album. If you drew a line direct from Jon Spencer to The Strokes and back again to White Stripes, making sure you take a long detour amid the bars of Detroit, you'd be sure to chance across the Von Bondies somewhere along the way. Their debut album blisters with blues, rock'n'roll, primal energy, garage, bottleneck angst--anything you want to call it really. Front man Jason Stollsteimer possesses a fine, sexually charged howl which is sure to gain him an instant cult following. Songs draw their inspiration from alcohol ("Nite Train"), gallows humour ("Cass And Henry") and traditional Americana ("No Sugar Mama"). With the Dirtbombs' own Jim Diamond at the production helm, you know you're getting the full Detroit Monty.--Everett True

I've been tired of so much of the stuff out there right now, so I started checking out some bands that most people probably haven't heard of, just to hear something new. I heard about this band in Thrasher a interview and instantly wanted to hear their music. The people are pretty awesome. It's so much fun to listen to these guys rock out, a true inspiration to anyone into making music. They have a great feel, and that girl who only talks about Ashton Kutcher and the shirt she got at hot topic, probably won't know who they are, so you don't have to share...

I'm so happy I stumbled across this band. I was looking through a magazine and saw a little snippet about them, it didn't even say anything, just that jack white produced it, but I decided to buy it. It's great. It swampy and bluesy, the recording sounds cool, very vintage, but they sound fresh--their songs are exciting and original. I'm running across a lot of other bands in this same vein, I guess, where their songs are cool, but stale. The Von Bondies are exciting. I know this is a really bad review, but it's a cool CD.

Hey, and if you want to see them on DVD, get Later . . . Louder, it's a DVD compilatoin of musical guest who have appeared on Later with Jools Holland. It's got the VBs, the white stripes, QOTSA, Sonic Youth, PJ Harvey, Jesus and Mary chain, BRMC, cardigans, mercury rev, afgan whigs, vines, new order, soundtrack of our lives, black crowes, primal scream, others--it's pretty cool.
