HERMANOS GUZANOS - "Country Fried Worms" (2024)

 
I don't know about the rest of you, but a lot of this A-I stuff cracks me up, so here's ten shots at what our tape from 1991 titled "Country Fried Worms" might look like if we released it today!
 
 
I don't have time to fix the spelling on all of these, and I think I've figured out why A-I art produces so much gibberish. It's because it knows that there's a whole lot of people today that can't spell anyway, so what difference does it make. As long as it looks close, that's good enough!
 
 
This one is probably the closest to what the three of us really looked like, and our fan base too!
 
 
I love the letters in the title of this one.
 
 
Country, County, who cares?

 
I need to get some of these tee shirts printed up.
 
 
Every once in a while everything is spelled correctly!
 
 
Worm skin.
 
 
Pretty accurate interpretation of our world.

NO PIGEONHOLES - ROTWEILERS - "Super Heavy" (1994)

This is a song by a band called the Rotweilers that I got from one of Don Campau's "No Pigeonholes" radio show tapes that he sent me back in the day. I got a copy because I had a song on this show too.
I looked all over the place and I couldn't find out any more information on the Rotweilers, but on the show, Don said that they were from Cincinnati, Ohio.

 
This is what the tape really looked like!
 
 
This krazy A-I image is a lot more fun.
I don't know what the name of this cool Danzig sounding song is, but according to Don, the tape was called "Super Heavy."

PUMF RECORDS 40TH YEAR ANNIVERSARY RELEASE - A-void - "non​-​alphanumeric symbol"

 
Pumf Records is having a 40th freakin' anniversary, and to celebrate it, they are offering all kinds of goodies like a free download of their very first release back in 1984 by A-void. Here's a cool photo of pStan back in the day. You can read the whole story of A-void right 

 
Here's a cool publicity pic of the short-lived band A-void.
And here's a great example of what was really happening back in 1984
And If you liked that as much as I did,

HERMANOS GUZANOS - "Out Of The Past, And Into The Future" Part II

 
This tape was so rejectable that I couldn't even get the word Rejects spelled correctly!
 
Our next release was mostly covers with a couple of ducks thrown in for good measure.
 
Next was a compilation I put together titled "Refried Dreams" that featured a bunch of great artists I had met by mailing out our tapes to anybody I could think of.

 
On that tape we had an instrumental quasi-surf song called "Gringo."
 
Our next tape was one of my favorites and was called
"UFO Executives," a title we stole from an album I found at a swap meet by a group named "AFO Executives."

Then came the prophetic "Back In The Alley." 
So that's what about two thirds of our catalogue might have looked like today!
Stay tuned for one, or maybe two more looks at what might have been if we had today's technology 30 years ago.
