YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO… ENTER THE THUNDER ZONE.

IN 2007 MILWAUKEE LABEL DECORATED RECORDS PUT OUT A SPLIT 7″ BETWEEN MYSELF AND NYC WILD STYLE POP PUNK LEGENDS JAPANTHER. I’VE KNOWN JAPANTHER SINCE WINTER 2002 WHEN WE PLAYED OUR FIRST SHOW TOGETHER AT A BASEMENT IN MADISON, WISCONSIN. I WAS 15 YEARS OLD.

AFTER THAT SHOW A FRIENDSHIP WAS FORMED AND WE HAVE RAGED A LOT OF SHOWS TOGETHER OVER THE YEARS. JAPANTHER LIVE AT THE BARELY LEGAL HOUSE IN MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN WINTER/SPRING 2004 IS STILL ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE LIVE SHOWS.

THOUGH THIS SPLIT WAS THOUGHT TO BE SOLD OUT, RECENTLY A FINAL 300 COPIES WERE FOUND IN THE DECORATED RECORDS DUNGEON. DECORATED CEO AUSTIN DUTMER HAS BEEN VERY BUSY RECENTLY TOURING THE WORLD IN HIS AWESOME ROCK AND ROLL BAND JAILL (SUB POP) SO AN AGREEMENT WAS REACHED AND I BOUGHT UP THE REMAINING 300 COPIES.

THE FINAL 300 OF THESE COME WITH SICK STYLE HAND-NUMBERED B/W COVERS AND A LIMITED AMOUNT ARE AVAILABLE ON YELLOW VINYL. PICK IT UP RIGHT HERE AND OWN A PIECE OF THUNDER ZONE HISTORY TODAY!

ONE OF MY FAVORITE RECORD STORES AND PLACES TO PLAY IN THE USA IS VERTICAL HOUSE RECORDS IN HUNTSVILLE, ALABAMA. BEYOND JUST A GREAT SELECTION, THESE GUYS THROW SHOWS FOR THE AGES. WE ARE TALKING GENRE FUCKING RAGERS THAT PAIR LOCAL GARAGE ROCKERS LIKE THOMAS FUNCTION WITH RAPPERS LIKE G-SIDE.

I’VE PLAYED VERTICAL HOUSE A FEW TIMES AND I’M COMING BACK IN AUGUST TO THROW DOWN WITH MY MILWAUKEE FRIENDS JAILL. NO DOUBT IN MY MIND THAT IT WILL BE A GREAT SHOW. VERTICAL HOUSE ALSO MAKES AWESOME FREE INTERNET COMPILATIONS EVERY MONTH CALLED EARGASMS, AND THIS MONTH FEATURES NONE OTHER THAN MY NEW SINGLE “LIKE A RENEGADE”. GET THAT SHIT RIGHT HERE. AMERICAN MUSIC – ENTER THE THUNDER ZONE.
