Urge Overkill!!! is good yeah?

It's quite possible no-one cares, but I do. Urge Overkill are releasing a new LP on the 10th of May. Rock & Roll Submarine!

No Blackie, they have a new drummer and bass player.

You can even download a track here.

Bonza! I fucking love this band.

'Exit the Dragon' was such a overlooked album.

i'm with ya helzapoppin. I remember it was quickly relegated to $2 bargain bin land after it was released. The Break, Need Some Air, Jaywalkin, Tin Foil - so good.

Haha, I picked up my copy in the Myers $2 bin about 2 weeks after it was released. Still listen to it ever few months. So many great tracks - This is No Place, View Of The Rain, The Mistake!

don't understand the hatred directed at this band. they were good, not sure if they still are. exit the dragon is tasty. saturation is great. the earlier scuzzier stuff is kind of all over the place but i like it! kick arse cover of emmaline on one of those records too. i think they may have done themselves a disservice by trying to be fashionable and ''cool'' instead of letting their music do the talking.

They always seemed fashionable and cool tome, and their music is kick ass!

Fuck that song sounds like sweet ol urge overkill to me!

I loved these guys growing up.

Saw them play the Metro in 2006 (maybe 2007) but they weren't very good.

Nash Kato still looked the same. Eddie King had piled on the pounds though.

new song is pretty fine..

sounds good as gold

I saw them at that Metro show (2006-07ish) and they were fucking amazing.

Crack Babies sent the crowd wild.

crack babies is a great tune

everything on saturation and exit the dragon is good.

I only know them from that song on the Pulp Fiction soundtrack. Is that an indicative song?

nah mate, much more ''guitar rock'' than that song

Saturation is the soundtrack to my mispent fingerbangin' youth.

saturation is such an apt album title given the guitar sounds on that record

the song from PF is a cover of Neil Diamond (is that right?)... its good but not definitive

nash cato asked me for a sharpie at the corner gig and i didn't realise that sharpie was a brand of texta and i said, 'ah i think you can get one from the chemist maybe but i don't know any that are open right now. there's a 24 hour chemist in carnegie but that's miles away.'

i saw them ages ago at the Palace, musta been mid 90's or something, maybe a bit later....anyways, it was fucken loud, and good.

that was when the Palace was the Palace and not the Metro.

Did he mention why he wanted the sharpie September? Write the set list? Sign ladies boobies? Why Nash?

@jimmy

sounds about right. I remember they also played o-week at Monash and I am pretty sure that was 1995.

i went to the o week gig at monash too.

i think to sign, HHH.

i second whatever September posts in this thread, the corner gig was fucking ace !

i have vague memories of seeing them at monash union night in the mid 90s. fuck its been a long time since i was a teenager.

i remember them supporting inxs at fishermans wharf on the goldy in 94' except i wasn't a teenager.

i like the sharpie story. good stuff. guitar sounds crazy horse-ish on this new single, tasty.

Yeah!!

it's like rock for people who don't listen to music.

sure it is.
