Flat Tires Will Destroy The Big Mountain Run

That's right, we are predicting it across the world wide channel of all that is great in the realm of motorcycles, rock n' roll and good times. The Flat Tires are going to flat out destroy the stage, crowd, cases of beer, the country side, mindsets and yeah, ahem, what he said  at the Big Mountain Run.

Most of all, the Flat Tires are going to prove that they are best damned Punk Rock band working today. Hell, we don't even tend to think of it as punk rock, as that connotation is so over used. So chew on this and think on their sound. The Flat Tires are straight up Juke Joint Rock N' Roll Villains. Now that you have heard the best way to describe their fire brand of a sound, pay attention to the track in this here video to promote Cycle Source's Big Mountain Run and get your asses on the bikes and get out to the hills, for this is a run not to miss.

Flat Tires California Invasion Tour - Sept. 8-10

The rowdy juke joint rock n' rollers otherwise known as the Flat Tires are invading the great state of California. Do yourself a favor left coasters, grab a 2 x 4 of PBR, shake it profusely, grab some swigs and then proceed to throw it all over the crowd. Of course everyone is going to be doing the same, so just wait til ya get to go through the right of passage into real punk rock the way its done down south. The tunes will be all kinds of fried and dirtied up with cold beer, lots of attitude and southern swagger.

She Rides - "Drunk Tornado of Junkyard Rock and Biker Metal"

We honestly could not pay for such a great description of She Rides latest ep to be doled out by the folks over at BrokenBeard.com. When they came up with the line "drunk tornado of junkyard rock and biker metal" we instantly cut a crooked grin and felt proud as a peacock. Read on for the review below...

She Rides
Buy the Ticket
Rusty Knuckles Records

Buy the Ticket is a four song EP from She Rides, Providence, Rhode Island’s drunk tornado of junkyard rock and biker metal, whose label, Rusty Knuckles Records, is home to such hideous outlaws as ANTiSEEN and Crank County Daredevils, so you know the kind of cocaine and gasoline fun you’re gonna get here. It’s been about three years since their self-titled debut, so the fact that there’s only four songs means they had to stuff an awful lot of sleaze into each one of ‘em for maximum effect, and I’ll be damned if the whole thing isn’t as bloated as a dead possum who overdosed on a lethal mix of Ironboss, The Misfits, Peter Pan Speedrock, and Damn 13. Take one Hunter S. Thompson reference, a bunch of nasty riffs, and the words party, piss, and dude, and you’ve got an EP aimed to tickle saggy-titted trailer trash in that special spot usually reserved for their cousin’s greasy shotgun.

Rock N' Roll City Metro Map

There are maps to the stars homes, maps for amazing back country ridin' roads, there are maps on your smart phones and then there are maps that just trump everything. The Rock N' Roll Metro Map is pure imagination and damn if we can't thank Alberto Antoniazzi for being a clever designer and thinker for coming up with something this great. Here is his story on it:

"The Rock’n’roll Metro Map™ is a self-initiated project based on the idea of representing the various genres of rock’n’roll music as the lines of a subway system. Including more than 200 bands, the map is just a personal vision of the music history of the past decades and not a real visualization of it, that’s because the number of artists and influences are impossible to be visualized in a 100% objective way."

Flat Tires Indiana Invasion

Hammond, IN, you are about to get your juke joint rocked like no other. The fellas in the Flat Tires will be rolling into town and causing such a stir that maybe even the mayor will be to come out and get shaken up by Freeborn and declare it Flat Tires today. Well, at least we hope for such an event to occur. Rally your troops and get out to the show.
