Local Band Pages
...that is from wisconsin
Bugattitype 35 - Official site A three piece indie rock power trio from Madison. Includes pictures, tour dates,
product info, sound bites, links, and more.
Citizen King They're back in a big way, on Warner Brothers records. These guys will rock your world.
In a hip-hop, funk, and rock kinda way. A DJ plus an eclectic rock band equals some
good music. There's also an old webpage
here.
Compound RedDeSoto Records' CR page. A midwest version of modern rock, in other words
without all the sugarcoating. Any of their 7 inch records are required listening, especially
the "feelings..." single. Their first CD was made in the transition of finding their sound.
The Frogs - Official siteThe best part about this site is that you can order some hard-to-find Frogs' cassettes and
videos. There's also a little webpage at Scratchie Records. And a good fanpage here.
FuzzdollyMoody, gothic, energitic punk, with a beat you can really groove to. First they were a
five-piece band from Stevens Point, and then a power-trio from Madison.
HeadpumpA combination of cerebral rock, techno, and just plain wacky thinking. Created with
cybernetic grooves, souped-up guitars, sleek synthesizers, and bluesy vocals.
Killdozer Sure the band is now dead and gone, but they still rule. With vocals by Michael Gerald
that can never be duplicated and a sound that makes grunge seem wimpy, you've gotta
love 'dozer.
Little Blue Crunchy Things - Official site LBCT has an eclectic mix of funk, energetic rock, hip-hop, jazz and blues from
Madison. Includes CD mail order, sound clips, email address, pictures, etc.
Marques Bovre and the Evil TwinsIf someone said to me that I would like a roots rock/sightly country band, I would've told
them they're nuts. But then I heard these guys. The song "Flyover Land" must be heard by all.
Pound WI"Not quite noise-rock, not quite emo." A great band, with a great page, and info about
other bands too. Three guys playing loud and fair.
Rainer Maria Polyvinyl Records' page for RM. A beautiful combination of male and female vocals,
delicate drums, emo-corelike guitars. Kyle and Bill, vocals/guitar and drums respectively,
are ex - Ezra Pound. Check out the other official page here.
Reptile Palace OrchestraOmnium Records' page for RPO. A mix of east and west, funk and folk. Balkan Lounge
Funk would be another good description.
The Your Mom SROThe "SRO" stands for Standard Rock Outfit. Their sound ranges from delicate and melody
driven music to all-out rock-n-roll.
Garbage - Official site I wasn't really sure whether to put these guys under local or national bands, but oh well.
