The Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band – “The Wages”

• Album Reviews

Record Label: Side One Dummy
Genre: Blues
Band Link: www.bigdamnband.com

Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band is a band I like listening to when I put on their CDs, but they aren’t something I normally listen to. The last release & debut on Side One Dummy was very good! Their newest Side One Dummy release comes out May 25th 2010 and I’m sure they will get even more fans from this release. It also helps that they are playing the entire Warped Tour this summer as well.

Buy on Amazon.com

Do you like weird music? Then King Clarentz is up your alley! He plays weird, blues garage rock, and sings in a weird voice. It kind of reminds me of Ian Anderson singing on the Jethro Tull song “Song For Jeffrey.” This is King Clarentz second album, which I never made it through…
