About Me

Somewhere between Superdrag and The Supersuckers, somewhere between heaven and hell, but probably closer to the latter in both respects, there exists "The Goddamn Rights!"...fed up with all the scenes, and genres that seem to be rapidly engulfing the Midwest, there arrives a new breed of Rock & Roll purity. Not so much pure in theme and content (far from it), but pure in the sense of knowing where they all come from musically.Where did all the Rock & Roll Bands go!? ...everyone is in an "indie" band now, all "sublabled" of course. "Emo", Screamo", "Emocore", "Artcore", "Christcore", "any-other-noun-you-can-think-of-core" Well, where’s the punk-rock!? ...the power-pop!? Yeah, right! How "uncool" could one possibly be!!!?Well, "The Goddamn Rights!"have thrown all that bullshit aside.They are not trying to be any part of a latest "fad". They have, instead, gone staight back the roots of the Rock and Fuckin’ Roll that they know and love. With songs about Sex, Drugs, and (obviously)Rock & Roll, and a complete disregard for the conservative norms of the Midwest, "The Goddamn Rights!" are striving toward one goal - to resuscitate the long lost "Rock & Roll" attitude. drawing from influences such as Motley Crue, Cheap Trick, Superdrag, Butch Walker, The Supersuckers, Social Distortion, and the like, this three-piece assault squad brings forth an aggressive "balls-out" display of powerful, fist-pumping Rock & Roll with the catchiest pop hooks you’ve ever heard! Their music is so unforgetable, and their mission is agreeable. The world needs its Rock back, and I believe we have found it’s new supplier.

New tunes I've been listening to (and you should, too!)

Some new shit you guys should check out: TSAR- "Band-Girls-Money"- it's like these guys combined all the cool music of the 70's (Stooges, Bay City Rollers) and updated it to give it "that edge". ...
