BOWERY BOYS

George Jones vs. Godzilla

_(Office Cassette)_

Talk about 'obnoxious' rock n' roll. This 6-song debut cassette from Champaign, IL's Bowery Boys has one foot in the gutter, warning ya from the first song that 'Here's more music JUST FOR BOYS!!! All the girls scream, saying what's that noise.' These guys sing about custom designing a cool convertible by cutting their used car in half, Black Labels and smokes, their gigantic skateboard ramp and 'yeah, card us, card us, we're so young, we're ffen guys with beer enough for one.' Bowery Boys music sounds like everything fun from Aerosmith to Woody Guthrie to Sweet/Raspberries bubblegum to Ramones. And I think this music is so obnoxious that, uh, well, I do know every last word and beat by heart. (Office Records, P.O. Box 1792, Eau Claire, Wl, 54701.)
