(antiMusic) Throw Rag is one of So Cal's most underrated and underknown street rock bands. Thanks to MVD you'll get another chance to discover them with the first proper release of their debut album "Tee-Tot" and a brand new release called "2nd Place!". Both are set to hit stores on June 10th. Can we get a "hell yeah!"Here is the PR on them: Throw Rag have been playing their brand of rock for a few years now and finally their debut "Tee-Tot" has been reissued! "Tee-Tot" never really saw a proper release and was only available at the band's live performances until now. Out of print for years, "Tee-Tot" finally sees the light of day. Produced by Mickey Petralia (Peaches, Beck, Beastie Boys), "Tee-Tot" has been remastered with two bonus tracks! Check out the beginnings of one of the best live bands in the country.
2nd Place? That's the spirit... Despite the album title, this is Throw Rag's finest work to date, a rabble rousing collection of anthems direct from California's Salton Sea... and with ace producer Cameron Webb (Social Distortion, Motorhead) at the helm, this ship is built for speed.
After 10 years of relentless touring with the likes of Reverend Horton Heat, Queens Of The Stone Age, Eagles Of Death Metal, Gogol Bordello, Floggin Molly, Joan Jett, The Pogues and NOFX; after endless Warped Tour dates and European tours, Throw Rag have progressed to a sound entirely their own. Songs like 'Devil Gone Good' and 'Demons In A Row' are seeped in the pain and catharsis that is life, the musical equivalent of Bukowski and Hunter S. Thompson on that final screaming blowout. 12 brand new tracks, plus live Throw Rag favorites "Bag Of Glue", "Hang Up" and "Hollywood"! Includes covers of The Gears "Don't Be Afraid To Pogo" and Link Wray's "So Glad, So Proud"!!
