the Underlings

About Me

We bow down to the Gods of ROCK and ROLL: Asheton bros, MC5, Classic Punk and Classic Rock - we dig it all and serve it back in bars and venues across the great state of Oregon. Sonic slabs of fat-laden guitar riffs, warm bass riffage, savage drumming and bittersweet tales of love gone wrong and minivans that won't start...it's all in there, just like Prego tm.
