Tony Rettman
Rettsounds - Unwucht
Unwucht is a German label that has been unearthing unreleased obscurities from the past that make that certain type of person twitch and writh.
Rettsounds - Black Humor
I've found a band that would make Skrewdriver sound like the Starlight Vocal Band.
Rettsounds – Watery Love
I was so impressed by Watery Love's latest single, I invited members Richie Charles and Max Milgram to my cottage where I promptly removed my pants and interviewed them.
Rettsounds - From Our Lips and Hips to the Horned One's Ears
Other than a decent knack for figuring out the names of black metal bands from their undecipherable fonts, I cannot say that I am anything of a metal head.
Rettsounds - Mutant Mix
Sometimes I get really sick of words. Especially the ones I speak and write. But I'm not complaining, this gig is way better than my old job--making mud at the mud factory.
Rettsounds - Making a Scene (Again)
The years have seen this book change hands from stubby fingered hoarder to slim-wristed collector for outrageous prices. But lucky, lucky you: Butter Goose Press has recently re-printed it.
Rettsounds - They're Coming to America
If you've been paying attention to anything I've written here in the past year, you'll know that Melbourne's Deaf Wish get me very gooey in the gotchies.
Rettsounds - Blame it on the Colitis!
If I had to make one of those Best-Records-of-the-Year-So-Far-Because-I-Can't-Think-of-Anything-Else-to-Write-About type lists, this would be it.
Rettsounds - Boys of Summer Mix
As we watch the dirt-mustachioed boys of summer fade away into the sunset with crinkled and dried-out condoms in their back pockets, listen to this mix and remember everything the season has brought us.
Rettsounds - Ed Schrader
Last month, after a grueling, week-long hike through the Rocky Mountains in search of members of White Trash, I came home to a 7" vinyl record on my kitchen table by Ed Schrader's Music Beat.
Rettsounds - Scream
Most of the 80s hardcore bands that have reunited in the past years are stinky piles of mid-life crisis wrapped in a mall-purchased leather jacket. Then there's Scream, who recently reunited and picked up where they left off.
Rettsounds - Giddy as a Titmouse
Both sides of Mad Nanna's seven inch come off pretty creepy, creaky, and extremely foggy--sorta like Bruce Cole after too much Old Style and Dragnet re-runs.
