CJ does live in Tokyo and I too had assumed that his band must be japanese. God, what must that look like. A 6ft Indian and three orientals with outsized guitars. Vow Wow all is forgiven. However, the brown one informs me that he is currently bunked up in Essex and not going home till he has sorted his deal.
Vow Wow were great. Where's those mp3s?

Look froward to it! Honeycrack were brilliant
Vow Wow! That Channel 4 apparence they made
(clad in Stryper-esque yellow-and-black) still
sticks in my mind.

Just got four new post Wildhearts tracks off CJ. Pure punk pop dynamite. I was astonished by how good it all is. Made me realise that his input into the Hearts was much more than i realised.
Unfortunately he has threatened to trample me with his pet elephant if I pass anything on at the moment as he is negotiating, whatever that means. soon as I can, I will. Watch out for them. Its class A bubblegum.
Red Kross, 21st century EZNuff genre.
Good to hear. I always liked the Honeycrack and Jellys stuff too - the Wildhearts lost something major when CJ left originally. That band always needed CJ and Ginger to work properly, it was the balance between the two of them that made it as good as it was.
I hear CJ lives in Japan now, is the new band based there?
Redd Kross were always over-hyped?
Jellyfish, on the other hand, were always
under-hyped?

We seem to have inadvertantly stumbled across Laviathan. ECT or as it was more commonly known Every Cock Up Transmitted. I can remember the Grip, with fireworks, Persian Risk, very dodgy Sub Priest outfit, Marino, Tygers of Tantang, jesus, and an awsome band called Warrior, who may have been Jap.

How can you say Redd Kross were over rated, you souless Philistine. I cant think of a band more under rated. Album after album of great surf tinged west coast bubblegum punk. And the McDonalds looked as cool as fuck! It was such a shame that they couldnt get the big break. They finally just stopped enjoying it i think, which is a tragic waste of a great band. I recently found their Third Eye album on CD in a Camden record fayre for 6 quid. Wash you mouth out with coal dust Taffy.
