TIC ROX/ Fuck Me U.S.A. 2: Mannequin on the Move?

Wow, I just spent all this time writing a post and then blogger deleted the whole thing. I can't type it all over again. INSTEAD I AM GOING TO YELL IT AT YOU.

ZEUS "BOULDERS OF OLYMPUS"(from mt. olympus)

CHANNELS 3 x 4 "MEDS INSTEAD"

FUCK ME USA "WAR PIG (LIVE)"

Whoo. Let's take a breather. Apparently there is another band that just started up in the UK also called Fuck Me USA. That is mostly a big case of whatevers. The band name comes from a Gang of Four song, and FMUSA (CA) broke up before they ever put anything out, save for a limited split 7" w/ Chs. 3x4. I don't know much about this FMUSA (UK) fellow, save for his website claims he is playing Glastonbury festival this summer, so before this new band implants itself in everyone's mind as the only band called F.M.U.S.A. I want to remind the people what went down in the middle part of the first half of the first decade of the 21st century, when some kids started up some band, to open up for Glass Candy, or something, in Vancouver, or Victoria, or somewhere.
FUCK ME USA "INFINITE SLOPE"
FUCK ME USA "TAN THIGH"

THIS GUY MIGHT PUT OUT THE LOST F.M.U.S.A. (CA) ALBUM.
MAYBE HE IS TOO BUSY PUTTING OUT RELEASES BY SOME OF THE HOTTEST BANDS IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE RIGHT NOW. (And maybe it is all just too 2003)

ANYWAY, BUG HIM INTO PUTTING THE ALBUM OUT. I WANT TO HEAR IT REAL BAD.
TELL 'EM PARTY ON INFINITE EARTHS SENT YOU.

(Sorry about the Z-sharing, one day I'll get the hosting properly sorted.)
