I love the Sonics, they get real solid airplay on Little Steven's Underground Garage on Sirius Radio. Have Love Will Travel is a fucking awesome song. Great interview Nardwuar, these guys are the real deal. What a experience interviewing these great guys.
DeLaGoya you should listen to them dude. theyre covered by a lot of great bands. Helped pioneer that garage sound which is prevalent today in the Seattle music scene. Check out hardly art label.
Never heard about The Sonics or their music until today, and is nice to know that many people at a certain time in the future will discover them too and that they'll remain discoverable thanks to the internet... Shit I'm too high. What am I even doing here?
Music that comes from the land where the tide goes out and the world smells like rotting seaweed! Lucky to live in the Puget lowland, and to have such a bountiful scene from many generations!
( 9:00 ) Gerry :"No shhKIDDING." Airborne Rockers - Deniz Tek , Johnny Cash , Mark Griffin (MC 900 Ft, Jesus.) , The guy from Iron Maiden , Wilko Johnson (He briefly tried to pilot a plane , with no prior experience) , and , now , Rob Lind. WOW......THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST INTERVIEWS YET.
Hats off to these guys for keeping up a positive attitude, despite being screwed over by multiple record company weasels.
