shoelace www.myspace.com/shoelacepunk
Shoelace takes cues in consciousness from bands dating back to the Clash up til modern day revelry revolutionaries such as Against Me! and Leftover Crack; acts equally as liable to rock the Casabah as they are a picket line. The bands initial self-recorded, five song EP, Shoelace and the Inevitable Scallywags, which found release on Lansings Bermuda Mohawk Productions in 2005, contains odes to everything from partying it up, to Capitol city houses of burlesque, to Michigans unwavering record of delivering its electoral votes to anyone whos running thats not George W. Though a ramshackle documentation of where the band was at as it solidified in its current line-up, Shoelace and the Inevitable Scallywags, in tandem with the bands electric live charisma, accomplishes nothing short of putting it on the map as a band to watch over the next year as it develops its sound fully and works on its next release.

taking back the rythms
Score: 7
bRAIN FAILURE SIDE A:
If you got a copy of Brain failures first album when they were on tour in the states for the first few times. you heard several re-recorded songs with dicky barretts vocals thrown into to make them slightly interesting. If not this is a good pick up for those still needing to introduced to the world of the punkest asians since Mike Park.
BIG D AND THE KIDS TABLE SIDE B:
i heard on a TOPWELT interview with big D that their goal was to do a ska album, a thrash/punk album and a Dub album. This however would have to fall under the category of two amazing thrash songs that make this purchase completely worthwile a solid dub track and the rest is just filler from the 50 songs they reportedly wrote for strictly rude.
the bottom line- is taking back the rhythm is worth buying and listening till it becomes your personal anthem but they will probably never play this live.
