Teargas Rock
Teargas Rock
The implosion of underground rock act (Young) Pioneers in spring of y9 left the group's main speechwriter, Stakolee, and
his comrade, Martin Violence, without an aural outlet for their abrasive brand of political harangue. Before long, the
two found themselves conspiring with Union drum corps Corporal Randolph Davis on a new platform designed to foment youth
revolt. Named immediately preceding the events of November 30, 1999 in Seattle, the new group, dubbed Teargas Rock,
sought to actively involve white mother country radicals in the escalating resistance to overdeveloped neoliberal
capitalism. The resulting audio communique, advised and directed by Bryan Hoffa, connects the the bile of Dylan's
"Ballad of a Thin Man" to the spleen of Conflict's The Ungovernable Force without missing a single frontline wire feed.
While mixing during the infamous republican snowstorm disaster of of January 2000 at an undisclosed basement safehouse,
Teargas Rock narrowly escaped a "no-knock" raid on the session with the all too brief seven tracks presented here. Some
14 odd songs were discovered and confiscated by authorities when bassist M.Violence tried to pass through a random
checkpoint with a false-bottom guitar case a few hours later on the outskirts of Petersburg, Virginia. Little Black
Cloud Records has filed a Freedom of Information Act request regarding the whereabouts of these 'ghost tracks.' Due to
this unfortunate chain of events, two session musicians, listed on the new record simply as "Big Phil" and "Jess," have
endured more than a decade of constant surveillance and harassment by government intelligence agencies.
