ROCK CITY ANGELS - Self Titled (1989 South FL.) JOHNNY DEPP - BOBBY DURANGO

Here is an awesome album from Rock City Angels. It features 11 rockin' tracks. It was released on New Renaissance Records, and was a limited release. This one is numbered 1369. This one is hard to find!
Rock City Angels were formed from the hit err of the punk band The Abusers. They once had Hollywood great Johnny Depp playing guitar for them, right before he landed the gig on 21 Jump Street.
These guys rocked South Florida, and built a huge following. They signed a major label deal, but like other hair bands, the grunge movent came along and took the wind out of their sails.
The eventually broke up, but reunited in 2021 to drop a new album.

SLOTH - 22 (1997 Rancho Cucamonga, CA)

 photo scan0092_zps1c8czafw.jpg Sloth was a California band, they formed in 1995 and made a few demos, then they recorded this one in 1997. It is produced by John Avila of Oingo Boingo. This album caught on and was a hot item at the underground trading post. The band decided to enter this cd in a nationwide contest sponsored by Guitar Center, Musicians Institute and Disc Makers and they won, beating several thousand competitors. They have since made at least 2 more albums. I`m not sure if they are still together.

EINSTEIN`S ATTIC - Sound And Fury (1993 Daytona, FL) HARD ROCK / METAL

 photo scan0052_32522540021_o_zpsvsseonna.jpg Here is an awesome cd from the Daytona, Florida band "Einstein`s Attic". It was released in 1993 on Green Vine Records. The cd features 11 tracks. You can find their two biggest songs "Last One" and "Remember When" on YouTube and other random sites, other than that there isn`t a whole lot of info about these guys out there, which is surprising to me, because they were pretty good and seem to have had a pretty strong following. If anyone has any info on this cd or the band, please feel free to leave a comment or email me.

SUPERVILLAIN - Leviathan (1998 Vancouver, WA) HARD ROCK

 photo scan0064_32522536731_o_zpsrwryywtu.jpg Next up is "Leviathan", a 3 track cd from the Vancouver, Washington hard rock band "Supervillain". Released by the band in 1998, I`m not sure if this was a debut, or a demo. Either way it`s pretty good. Heavy rock, almost metal sounding. The 3 songs on the cd are "Leviathan", "Terminator", and "10 Ton Gorilla". Not much information can be found on these guys, except for the "Produced by Aston Case & Supervillain" on the back cover. If you have any information on this cd or the band, please feel free to comment, or send me an email.

SECOND WIND - This Old Man (2000 Shelton, WA) AOR - Rock

 photo scan0014.jpg Second Wind is Mikey Les Taylor, Mike Allegri, and Ross Rutlege. They released this lesser known gem in 2000. 15 tracks of stripped down rock n roll. It's got a couple ballads, as well as a couple instrumentals. It was really refreshing to hear some straight ahead rock n roll, when the rock being released at that time was girly and lame.

SOCK MONKEE - Intro - 1995 Tacoma, WA - GRUNGE - HARD ROCK

 photo scan0014-2.jpg I love this band! Released on FUBAR Records in 1995, these guys rock! I am a huge Seattle grunge/metal fan, and I hadn`t heard of these guys. They did alot of shows with the band "Bucket" back in the day. I don`t know too much about them, but they were from Tacoma, and they have that classic Seattle sound! If you like bands like Villan, Bucket, AIC, and other more edgy/hardcore grunge bands, you will dig this!

Michael Smith has played with numerous South Sound bands, and currently plays with "Hurts Like Hell", a killer blues band.
