OBNOX - Red I + Molecule/How to Rob + releases/ tour dates

There's a fascinating place where garage grease, blown-out ampage, and punker scree crashes into funk termite mounds and hip hop/pedal tech. The wonderful Black Gladiator and Permanent Record labels kinda focused me on the phenomenon, despite it's having been mouldering in my record collection/selection for decades. Lamont Thomas is right on that
that's from his latest platter as OBNOX - 'Louder Space' on 12XU Records.
The 'underground' can bee a shit crop of dick-drop, but Lamont's been around, and helped, and talks a lotta sense -"Good rock'n'roll is like bigfoot, you hear about it but you rarely see it" So see it -
He's got a ton of releases out or on the way: OBNOX - Boogalou Reed album (12XU); BLAXXX - 'for no apparent reason' 12"; OBNOX - 'Know America' album (Ever/ Never Records); OBNOX - 'The juke that sat by the door' 12" (Chunklet Industries); and a massive tour (I've already blogged about OBNOX live chops) "Let's build friends"
