Mike Maker (vocals) is one snotty sounding young man. He may not look like George Thoroughgood, but he does a mean Prince imitation! I saw these guys at Treble Fest and in Chicago last year, and they kicked my ass (not literally). I plan on seeing them several times again when they open up for Thee Headcoats in the Midwest. For my money, I'd go with the Makers album... (but I hope you wanna hear some punk rock!) "I'm Not A Social Kind Of Guy", - -T.J. p.s.- if you want to get your ass kicked, go to see the Makers live, stand in the front row and yell, "Purple Rain!" ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 02 Mar 1997 13:49:03 +0100 From: Filippo Dulio Subject: Re: swingin neckbreakers or makers >Date: 1 Mar 1997 02:51:10 EDT >From: gabriel@valleyonline.com >Subject: swingin neckbreakers or makers >Hey has anyone bought the swingin neckbreakers shake brake! album. I >was thinking of buying that or the new Makers album. Which one should I >buy? You should buy..... BOTH! The Makers' album is their best to date and "Shake Break!" is as good as "Live for buzz". Really, as long as you don't prefer one band to the other you'll have to get both.

I >was thinking of buying that or the new Makers album. Which one should I >buy? For me, there's no decision there. The Swingin' Neckbreakers win hands down. It's a classic, almost as good as their first one. As for the Makers, I have to confess not being the absolute biggest fan of their's. Although I dig some of their records, I was kinda bored with their latest CD and ended up selling it to a friend of mine. ------------------------------ End of bomp-digest V1 #56 *************************
