THE BASEBALL FURIES "Lost Ones" 7"



Fuck yeah. The BASEBALL FURIES! Their “Greater than Ever” LP is one of 10 favourite punk rock records of all times and so do I adore “Let it be”, their second album finally seen daylight late last year.

I witnessed the BASEBALL FURIES on their 2001 BENEATH RUST BELT REVOLT FESTIVAL, still in their smashin´ Buffalo days. They blew away everything in those two nights and it was quite a line-up I won´t see anymore. And all in such a small place like the Mohawk Bar. I´m still psyched. Their second album is more mid-tempo anger-driven, different kind but not less intense and violent effort and so is this 7” including the exclusive songs LOST ONES, KNOW THAT GIRL and a unreleased aggressive REATARDS cover. Europe finally seen them on their tour this year and it was a nonstop party. What more to say about those warriors? Either you know or you should go back to lesson one. Released records on BIG NECK, FLYING BOMB, ESTRUS, members play in the TYRADES, DIRGES, GUILTY PLEASURES and are as one of Chicago proudest´.This band is a living legend, being around for a decade now and they never missed the playoffs. Let´s be prepared for the mysterious third album. Chicago Drummer Matt Billiams organizing the annual HA´s BLACKOUT festival. The cover is a fancy high quality disco sleeve with big holes and cool flying baseball label design one side and flying ALIEN SNATCH! logo on the other.
