Duane Peters has a movie about his bad self…… Check out the trailer to the upcoming DVD release of “Who Cares…The Duane Peters Story” which is due out by the end of this summer. DUANE PETERS is a skateboarder with serious cred. He’s generally acknowledged as the guy who consumated the union of punk rock and skateboarding, taking it from a la-la cruise by nerdy longhairs whose music of choice was the Eagles into the full-blown tough guy hardcore punk scene it is today. Here is a cool tribute to his skateboarding ability here. Check out some way cool downloads of The Hunns here.
But skating is just part of the fun for Duane, his other avocation is punk rock; and he’s pretty good at that too. Duane is the leader of the infamous U.S. BOMBS, and since 2000 he has started fronting The HUNNS. The HUNNS sound is raw, chainsaw, based on a classic formula : two Les Pauls, drums and bass. Duane, of course, sounds like Duane, but that’s the main similarity with the Bombs : the HUNNS delivery is much more street American rock’n’roll. Now with the addition of ex-Nashville Pussy COREY PARKS on bass, The HUNNS have become one of the best punk band playing anywhere in the world today.
The U.S. Bombs re-release of “Put Strength in the Final Blow” which was originally released in 94′ as a vinyl only album, now on CD with all tracks remixed by Duane and now features 4 tracks from the double 7inch of which only 500 copies were originally pressed. The whole thing has been remastered and includes liner notes from Duane himself. Go here to read more and download Bubble Gum from the “Put Strength in the Final Blow” CD.

The Unsatisfied Ambition Withdraw
What good is law in the United States of America if five or six goddamn bimbos are going to rule against it?

Lots of good stuff being said about “Ambition Withdraw”. Our friends from The Unsatisfied have released a movie called Ambition Withdraw. It just got a great review from Joe Bob Briggs and from what I can tell has gotten a lot of nice things written about it.
Hopefully the guys from the band will see this and add comments filling us in with the movies progress.
The writer from Hollywood Bitchslap says it pretty well except I would love to live next door to Eric because he is one of the most interesting motherfuckers I’ve ever met second only to my own BMF…
“I’m not sure if I’d want to live next door to him, because at times he seems like a bit of a crazy motherfucker – but isn’t that, along with a big set of balls, exactly what you need to front a punk band?”[read more]
