Fire Bug has a slight '70s feel that sounds like Zeppelin or early Heart, although they're not stuck in the past. Their style is really hard to describe in that it has a slight retro feel but not really. You have to hear them to see what I mean. The band is made up of vocalist and rhythm guitarist Juliette Tworsey, guitarist Jules Shapiro, bassist Ian Solomon and drummer Ty Dennis.
THE QUICK AND THE DEAD are a cow-punk band from Austin Texas. If you love old school punk, outlaw country and sleezy rock and roll, then you 'll fuckin' love this shit!
Formed in January 2006, by Ronia Blake and Rhoades D'Ablo, after D'Ablo moved to Austin from New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina destroyed his city.
After writing songs together, the pair enlisted Chris Blades on drums and Kurtis Machler on bass, then recorded 6 songs, 2 of which were uploaded on myspace.com, soundclick.com, and punkrock.com, and the buzz started.
Only a month into the project and live shows have generated a buzz in Austin, and the band has some high profile shows for SXSW and this Summer. Close text.

This is a really great EP from Fire Bug. The LA band has a slight '70s feel that sounds like Zeppelin or early Heart, although they're not stuck in the past. Their style is really hard to describe in that it has a slight retro feel but not really. You have to hear them to see what I mean. The band is made up of vocalist and rhythm guitarist Juliette Tworsey, guitarist Jules Shapiro, bassist Ian Solomon and drummer Ty Dennis. There are four cuts on here with one being a radio edit of a previous song. The first song, 'End of the World' starts off cautiously with just guitar and Juliette's almost fragile voice, before giving way to the rest of the band. The sound has almost a hazy psychedelic feel to it, sort of like Melanie or a subdued Janis Joplin meets Soundgarden. The second cut, 'Paradise' is even better, again starting off with a subtle intro before cranking away. The band has a great sense of dynamics however, trading off the quieter passages with the more raucous parts. 'Forever Won't Wait' is very Zeppelin-esque with really nice guitar and a good vocal filter. The last cut is the 'End of the World' edit. Close text
