MOTOR SOUNDS RECORDS MAILOUT - Sunshine special

Ahoy hoy good Motor Sounds folks, hows April been to you so far, good I hope. Here at Motor sounds Towers we're all just peachy. Its been fairly quiet around these parts but things are hotting up nicely.

ROCK N ROLL MONKEY AND THE ROBOTS GET MARRIED
No thats not the name of some lost dodgy 80's movie, I'm delighted to let you all know that
Craig and Jackie from Detroits Rock n Roll Monkey and the Robots are getting married in July this year and as if that wasn't exciting enough they're going to honeymoon in Ireland, so we're all gonna make the most of the opportunity and play a gig at Beatnik Soul in Derry City. Andy and Chris from The Bonnevilles are going to become honorary Monkeys for 1 night only and provide the backline for Craig and Jackie in what is sure to become a legendary event. The date will be Saturday the 18th of July in a venue to be confirmed.

Rock n Roll Monkey don't gig much in the U.S. these days and not at all anywhere else, so make sure you get down for this one as its is quite literally a one night stand.

I'd like to congratulate those crazy kids on their pending nuptuals and I'm sure they'll live happily ever after in years of wedded bliss. Oh and both of their albums "
Detroit Trauma" and "Back To Beatsville" are for sale at our online store, sorry was that crass of me, ah well I'll get over it, check em out, you won't regret it.


THE BONNEVILLES and REVEREND BEATMAN
While we're on it, The Bonnevilles are also going to be The Reverend Beatmans band at a festival in Glasgow on the 20th of June. Our good friend Rasef who runs the Eruption club nights in Glasgow has put together a 2 day festival of Garage, Rock n Roll and Punk Blues types on the 20th and 21st of June with Beatman being the headliner and The Bonnevilles in support, both as Beatmans band and with their own set. So I urge you to try and make that, it should be fantastic.

Looks like The Bonnevilles have a whole lot of learning of new tunes to be getting on with, but I'm sure they can cut it.

YOUTUBE & ME
I've decided to move things along into the 20th century......what year is it? I'll be posting video blogs on YouTube from now on out along with these mailouts and what have you. Apparently a picture paints a thousand words so I'll be painting some for you and giving you a little insight into Motor Sounds Records lifestyle and all that. It should be fun, so keep an eye out for me at gigs with a video camera, I'll be chatting to all the good folks who make Motor Sounds possible and introducing them to you, so stay tuned...literally. Oh and why not head on over to motorsoundsrecords.com and sign on for auto blog updates and you'll miss out on nothing.

THE SON OF REVERBIO

I am the bastard son of a thousand sleepless nights, I am the evil twin of myself, I am the creaking door, I am the confused ramblings of a prozac'd Nun, I am directionless like a feather in a gale, I am Holy... like a TV preacher beggin' for the money to heat his pool, I am the lizards tongue flicking and tasting, I am the hot stone in the desert baked for a thousand years by an ancient solar God, I am whats right and whats wrong with our world, I am a product of an enviroment which has been shaped by greed and irresponsibility, I am guilty and inncocent, I am red......................................................I am THE SON OF REVERBIO.

JUST NEWS AND REVIEWS

27th March 2009
Just in....awesome reviews for Rock n Roll Monkeys new album....from Lowcut magazine... now go buy it you swine. CLICK HERE

Rock N Roll Monkey and the Robots - Back to Beatsville
(Rock N' Roll Monkey Records / Motor Sounds Records)

Rock N' Roll Monkey and the Robots obviously dig kitschy 60's sci-fi stuff and retro mechanical toys. But what they also like is to make shakin' cool psycho-pop in the vein of B-52's with lots of twang and surf feel. Inspirations may also be the Cramps take on psycho-whatever with their b-movie twist. All songs are damned catchy and makes your feet twist. I would like to say that this band could be the new saviours of alternative pop. This is great stuff - weird - but groovy.

If you dig: B-52's, Gun Club, The Mummies (5 out of 5 Razorblades)

24th March 2009
Hi all, welcome to the newly redsigned site, redesigned by yours truely. i've been trying out a couple of different looks recently and this is the one that sticks. So for any regular visitors we haven't had a fit of some description. Oh and I should mention the font I've used is Century Gothic, so make sure you have that on your browser to see the site as sexy as it should be.

I may as well let you all know we're currently without distribution as our distro deal with CODE7 has come to an end and in these troubled times we're to small to worry about, I think we got lost in the shuffle. Never mind, onwards and upwards and all that shit. From now we'll concentrate on our online efforts and try and hook up with a few more quality online stores ourselves until we get a distribution deal sorted.

So go to the shop you dogs and buy something.
