Cool, thanks for posting the Grenadier...Who's those punk bands? BuFu L'Ru is a good name.

DC Liar said...

Harmonics: For my money, the greatest Punk band from DeKalb. Featuring Jeremy Gosser (A-Bomb Chop Shop), Pat Holtman (A-Bomb Chop Shop, Figora, Slut Pants), Dan Shaw (Tossers), and Kenny Koleman (Orgasmatics). Great sloppy anti-PC punk rock.

BuFu L'Ru: Originally started off (in the early 90's) with Matt Campbell (Sugarbone Johnson), Pat Holtman (Harmonics), and Kelly Krider. By the time this album was released, Holtman was long-gone and had been replaced by Airick.
These guys were the closest thing that D-Town had to the Melvins.

More Fucked: The one gutter-punk band from DeKalb that had their shit together enough to put out a CD.

Weren't you in BuFu at some point?

DC Liar said...

Nope.

I think that one of my old bands may have played a show or two with 'em, but that's it.

God, some of those covers couldn't pass a 4th grade art project.

Wow, a history page of the Dekalb bands. Groovy. I have the original version of the Bufu L'ru CD cover if you need it. Drop me an email at redirk2@aol.com. I have the track list somewhere also. These days I am the drummer of the Screw City Saints, a Irish punk band in Rockford. They call me Cottonmouth Jenkins....

At some point in my travels got the Ambersongs CD, just thought I'd try and see if they ever did anything else, found this obscure corner of the internet, which was pretty much the only place that a record of The Magnificent Ambersons as a musical group even exists. I see they had at least one other CD. Don't imagine I will ever find a copy of that. LEL.
