Reptilian Records presents the eponymous debut LP from Cincinnati, Ohioâs ripping THE STABBING JABS. Having already been released in Europe on French label Beast Records in April, Reptilian now unloads this gritty album upon the US population.
THE STABBING JABS unites vocalist Peter Aaron (Chrome Cranks), guitarists William G. Weber (Chrome Cranks, GG Allin & The Murder Junkies) and Chris Donnelly (Gang Green), drummer Andrew Jody (Barrence Whitfield & The Savages), and bassist Jamie Morrison (Motorbike). The band breathes fiery life into the type of tough, timeless, rock ânâ roll a generation had left for dead. Here it is, ready to make your life a living hell: an arsenal of hard, hammering tunes built on thick, cinder-block guitars. Blood-flecked screams. Dirty, fuzzy, low-end. Drums that swing as hard as they bash. And RIFFS. Riffs, riffs, and more riffs. Did we mention the riffs?
Drop the needle on The Stabbing Jabs, the bandâs debut LP, and itâs one high-octane face-blaster after another â all of them roaring straight at you. Right off the line is the pummeling, utterly unrelenting, freight-train opener, âBroken Brain,â with more rippers â the earth-shaking âDrowning Girls,â bone-crushing âRadiation Love,â and screaming, napalm overload âBone And Breastâ â lurking close behind. It gets moody in here, too: Just slide on into the slippery sleaze and grimy grinding of âUptown Bluesâ before making your final descent into the collapsing, claustrophobic chaos of âYouâre A Drag.â Once that last squealing squall has died out, just park it all on the shelf next to your copies of Damaged, Kick Out The Jams, Tied Down, Powerage, Raw Power, and Young, Loud, And Snotty until, man, you just gotta have that burning âJABS fix again â which, guaranteed, wonât be long after.
Crank THE STABBING JABSâ debut up to ear-bleeding levels at Bandcamp HERE and watch the animated âRadiation Loveâ video HERE.
The Stabbing Jabs will be uncaged stateside on July 19th. Vinyl and digital copies are currently being premongered at the Reptilian Records webshop HERE and Bandcamp HERE. European fiends can secure the record through Beast Records HERE.
A punch in the face. Queen City style: LOUD. Some things are just meant to be. THE STABBING JABS got together by accident. Sort of. An amazing accident that, in retrospect, was so obvious and so long overdue that itâs a wonder it didnât happen sooner. Once these gentlemen were in a room together, the flow was instant. Simpatico. Natural. Effortless. Unspoken. Fingers making an iron fist inside an iron glove. Pow!
Their first gig? Awesome, awesome, awesome. So killer. The audience? Incinerated. The nightclub? Destroyed. Completely. But as the drywall dust settled and the stageâs smoldering embers crackled and glowed and floated high above the stoic Cincinnati skyline, it was clear that this thing just couldnât end.
âIt would be cool to keep it going, with original material,â Jody observed. And, thus, it was so. More devastating gigs followed, and the band holed up in Weberâs Krakdhaus Studios to record their eponymous debut. In addition to its nine explosive originals, the record honors Cincinnatiâs punk past with covers of two area underground gems: Dennis The Menaceâs âGo-Go Wah-Wahâ and the Verbsâ âLittle In Doubt.â Straight-up, hard, mean, noisy rock ânâ roll. The stuff that never gets old. Some things are just meant to be. And so they are with THE STABBING JABS. Take it and like it. Punker.
Watch for live engagements from THE STABBING JABS to be stapled to telephone poles across the Midwest in the months ahead.
