Slab City

Slab City are from the Imperial Valley, way down in Southern California. Borrowing their name from a notorious piece of desert weirdness. These guys are the Screamers meets the Spits in a crappy Mexicali titty bar. - Zach, Dropout
Slab City es una banda del Valle Imperial tienen un estilo de música que oscila entre el Garge-Punk-Rock o como ellos lo llaman “Torta de Machaca Rock”; andan de gira, la cual llamaron “No border” (no frontera) y se presentaran próximamente en nuestra ciudad en dos fechas, acompañados con un cartel internacional el domingo 6 de mayo y el punk-rock continua el martes 8 de mayo, ambos eventos se llevaran acabo en el Bar Berlin 77. -Mexicali Blog
Debut platter from Slab City, a supposedly half-white/half-brown garage punk band from the CA/Mexico border named after a squatter town from that locale. "Tall Can" is obviously an ode to large beers, and "Milwaukee's Beast" is not about Tony Sagger, but the low-rent brand of beverage. These dudes really love their brew, and tell you about it via some uber-trashy rock that gets by just fine. In actuality, it's just the sort of thing you'd expect from dudes who like to drink cheap beer. The last cut, "Hyna", is about a chick, and gets all punk and mean and shit. I like that one the best. For fans of multi-ethnic rockenrolling and cases of beer that cost less than ten dollars. I'd rate this one at a middling 7 cans out of a twelve pack. Supposedly that Ernie guy who did The Spits and Black Lips tour vids plays keys on this, but I'll be damned if I remember hearing any keyboards...Scum stats: all these Slovenly singles are supposedly limited to 300 or 500, I'm not sure which.

Trashed out and loud and the keys stay right where they should. Reference? What if the Fatal Flying Guillotines rolled around in the bar mats before they played and stormed the stage with odes to a "Tall Can" and "Milwaukee's Beast" rattled out with tambourine accompaniment? Yep, that's doing it... - Wez Lundry, Thrasher
