Dirty, Dumb & Comical By Unnatural Helpers

I must admit I had not heard of the Unnatural Helpers before Sub Pop put out their latest 7" Dirty, Dumb & Comical. After a little digging, I found out that the Helpers are made up of Dean and Mike of Double Fudge plus a variety of cats from the Seattle underground. Presently listed on the myspace are Chris (of Kinski?) and Kimberly (of Dutchess & the Duke?). They perform short garage rock dittys. The current 7" is part of Sub Pop Records Singles Club 3.0 (which is sold out). I Am Fuel, You Are Friends has a nice little retrospective of the Singles Clubs 1.0 and 2.0... here (NOTE: individual mp3 links don't work).

So, get ready for some rock 'n' roll that is slightly more rock and a little less roll.

Topps By BOAT

So another track from BOAT's Topps EP is floating around the internets.

Downloadable: "Topps" (box.net mp3)

Personally, I was never that into baseball cards. I just liked the dried out gum that came in the pack of cards. The gum is also available in the deluxe packaging for the Topps 7". Yum.
