 Unkle Funkle Rub Rub Relief GNAR041 C20 |
Gnar Tapes VP Chris Uehlein's long anticipated* (*we're not just saying that) debut album "Rub Rub Relief" is an instant pop comedy classic. Self described as "Digi-Fi" and located somewhere between Ween, Weird Al and Miley Cyrus is our man Chris. With song titles like "Retarded Girls," "Japasneeze" and "Drunk Guy" and subject matter focused on masturbation, credit card debt, drunken persons, celebrities and diminishing your liver spots (whilst extended the size and length of up to ten digits or extremities on your body.) An operatically trained singer and music conservatory drop out, Chris' truly remarkable vocal prowess is the perfect instrument for his brand of self-effacing humor. Highly recommended and critically acclaimed; this one got leaked out here in Portland and has made fans of many of PDX's best musicians and artists. This one is for the nerds. | ||||
 Bobby Birdman New Moods GNAR040 C45 |
Bobby Birdman (AKA Rob Kieswetter) is so cool. He sings, surfs and soaks up sun like some futuristic Tom Jones. Already a well known name amongst pop appreciators and dance party fanatics, Bobby B's latest full length is maybe his finest. Recorded in Portland, Los Angeles and Olympia and featuring friends such as YACHT, this serious jammer is just in time for all night ragers or stoned out drives to the coast. And did you see that killer "Weighty Wait" video he made with E*Rock?? Sparkling clean electronic crooner dance slap from a modern day beach guru. Might wanna get a boombox for this one. | ||||
 Erik Gage Forever Dumb GNAR039 C10 |
Four songs that sound like The Pixies' "Where Is My Mind?" or Canned Heat's "Going Up the Country" or Paul Simon's "Kodachrome" or Little Wings' entire catalogue. Terribly folky, but in a "I just got high for the sixth time today" kind of folky. So that's cool. Very few of these left, but if you liked his other tapes, then you'll probably like this one. The last tape for awhile from him. He and Kyle from White Fang have started writing and recording for their new band The Memories. Stay tuned for that one cuz it already is starting to sound like a hit. "Forever Dumb" will provide you with hints of what is coming next. | ||||
 Organized Sports Hog Tied GNAR038 C10 |
After self-releasing three tapes of classic hardcore spillage, Organized Sports have made the obvious decision to release their latest tape "Hog Tied" on the Gnar Tapes & Shit Co. imprint. Containing six mosh-floor rippers from a bygone musical zone that recalls the sounds of east-coast hardcore bands like The Untouchables, Minor Threat, and Void (Organized Sports originally formed as a Void cover band.) Old School punk riffage and d-beat crust for any beer drenched backyard skate-sesh. This tape's release is in accordance with Organized Sport's new 7" release on their own imprint, HIV Town, available from the band. | ||||
 Shapes Cheesy Eggz GNAR036 C16 |
Shapes is Christopher Michael Scott, known around town as the drummer of Boom! and frequent visitor to all three Gnar Tapes offices thus far. This is his first solo tape, going from bedroom-gaze-cali-rock to waltzing-electro-gumdrop-pop. A native of the Inland Empire, the infamous suburban sprawled, strip-malled wastes east of Los Angeles, Chris has been living in Portland for about two years now and is really enjoying it. Songs to remember drinking wine and malt liquor in the living room with the front door open. Expect his band Boom!'s 12" LP to come out on Hovercraft Records later this year. | ||||

 Erik Gage Truest, Deepest, Realest ZINE003 |
Erik's 5th zine, and 3rd for Gnar Tapes, is BIG. Like, it's printed on big paper. It's also got a really fancy color cover and centerpiece. Drawings and comics ranging from the late 2008-early 2009 era when Erik was "homeless" and moving from couch to couch, mostly using his girlfriend's art supplies, but his own paper. Another move towards cute, while bringing in more overtly sexual characters and subject matter. Not for small children. | ||||
 Erik Gage Totally No. 5 ZINE001 |
Printed up by Marriage Records and assembled by interns thereof, this zine is the fifth installment of the Sumi Ink Club/Lucky Dragons zine series Totally. This is the fifth volume and contains drawings of burgers, mutants, trippers, turtles, skeletons, ice cream cones, puppies, and more. It is full of cute little phrases about being happy and loving the living. Double sided color cover with black and white innards. | ||||
