JEFF THE BROTHERHOOD- HEAVY DAYS CD
Been waiting for the CD version? Well here it is, including the bonus track “Pleasure Centre”. Here’s what they’re saying about HEAVY DAYS:
Spin Magazine December issue: #1 on list of Songs You Must Hear Now! “Post-adolescent bros dig into the sweet spot between punk and hard rock”.
The new champions of good time, feel good grungy rock, complete with industrial guitar distortion and tightly packed Barracudas percussion. Jeff The Brotherhood are squeezing out the remaining warmth from this years final months, heroically preserving the summer. (Mojophenia)
Noisy, psychedelic, grungy, even ever-so-slightly post-punk, JEFF feels like a stroll through the best record collection ever (Whispers of Wire, Sonic Youth, Devo, Talking Heads, and Chisel come to mind). (Punk News)
The infectious “Bone Jam” rides a falsetto chorus like a ray of turbocharged sunshine through chugging guitar, while the “The Tropics” puts the “power” back in power ballad. (Nashville Scene)
Wizardz - Cybersex Offender CD
Debut album (finally) by Wizardz a.k.a.

JEFF The Brotherhood – Castle Storm CD
THE RAGE says Castle Storm is “the essence of a highwire live performance made by two guys who were obviously frayed but not frazzled. Castle Storm is far more representative of Jeff’s chaotic live shows, which usually consist of the two brothers tearing each song limb from limb, using punk rock chops and monster metal riffs while baiting the crowd and always teetering on total collapse….
More Details
Throughout the frenetic collection of songs on Castle Storm the brothers ride that same line between pretentious and profound, and they ride it so hard and so fast that they never look back to see which it was.

Cake Bake Betty – To The Dark Tower CD
British mag Supersweet says “The musical vehicle of multi-instrumental New York songwriter Lindsay Powell, Cake Bake Betty’s music is an exercise in both the beautiful and the bizarre. Inspired predominantly by old mariner songs, folk classics and blues standards amongst many other influences, the tracks have an off-kilter appeal and energy which most artists would struggle to replicate.”
Lindsay now plays in Festival and Chicago based GA’AN.
