(309) EAR-SCUM

ArsoNick Scum's "SCUMTHOLOGY" released on the interweb! Old friends and foes may remember this anthology which circulated in 2001 or 2002.  Uplaying the early years of ArsoNick Scum (1996-2001), it's a would-be greatest hits had any of these been hits... or great.  Ever dropped out of college?  I suggest "Hot Damn." I'm not really in the mood to explain nor defend any of these songs, but check them out.  You can buy them for $1 each, or get all 35 tracks for $5 (29 tracks + 6 bonus tracks). New things are scary.  Old things can be scarier.  Go get scared. SCUMTHOLOGY ON BANDCAMP.COM (click here) If that's not enough, get back in the #309TimeMachine and let's go get some coffee! "Biscuit Time" ArsoNick/Coldcock @ The Coffeehouse (Normal, IL) 2004ish. (click here)

Super88 has now been rolling for 20+ years.  Twice as long as the Beatles because they’re twice as good, I guess.  Soon, the albums ROCK N’ ROLL EXTRAVAGANZA and LIGHTS IT UP   will be released to the world via widespread rampant streaming and downloading services, just like The Beatles. For now, though, I want you to know that they are available on Bandcamp.com and you should check them out.  Best stuff I’ve ever worked on (RnR Extravaganza - rhythm guitar).  It was recorded by Mark Rubel (Pogo Studio) in Champaign/Urbana in 2005/2006.  I think that, at the time, after I had announced that I was up and moving to Chicago, that this might be it... let's blow the money we have saved on an album in the studio... however, I was unraveling at the time, may remember it wrong... regardless, this happened.  Mark Rubel is a badass.  Fantastic guy to work with.  If audio engineering never existed, he'd be a name in the game of psychiatry. There are a handful of things tha

How did I forget that Gigety.tv  filmed the 2012  Coldcock Jones & The Shithawks farewell to Chicago show with Bitter Wigs, Taddy Porter and Dripping Slits .  Unfortunately the wiffleball game between Double Door and Reggies was not captured... by Gigety, that is.  Scouts Honor Productions (Ivan Ortega) captured it.  We'll get to that someday. That being said, feel free to watch it.  It kicks off with Bloomington/Normal 's DRIPPING SLITS . If you're impressed with the video, you can now purchase " LIVE IN CHICAGO " on bandcamp.com.  Or buy your favorite track.  Or don't do anything, see if I care.  I still have beers . Click on the poster to watch the video.

You can find EarScum material all over the place now, but not Instagram.  I'd need another hand and day of the week. However , being audio based, and now on Spotify , you can listen to a stable of material via the EARSCUMS PLAYLIST .  If you're on the thing, click that.  At this time there are releases by ArsoNick Scum , Coldcock Jones (with and without The Shithawks ) and Semicids .  Coming soon: Super88! If you'd rather get your music from Bandcamp , that's fine with me.  Get tracks and albums unavailable elsewhere for cheap.  You can pay extra if you want, it goes into expenses, not drugs.  See Coldcock Jones , Semicids , Super88 and very soon, a BUNCH of old ArsoNick Scum numbers. I think whatever you listen to music on... iTunes, Amazon, Napster, etc ... it's there.  Look it up. If Twitter is your game, you can find me there @EarScum  or mess with @ColdcockJones or me directly @309ROSEMAN .  You can even follow our baseball team, YES... a baseball t
