THE GHETTO WAYS "Solid Brown" LP/CD
"Get down on the git down"! Spread the news, after the successful debut album the GHETTO WAYS are ready to perform their second bash of which we are damn proud here. Solid Brown is a soul trash rock´n´roll deathbeam album full of nitty-gritty, dirty soul and and proto-punk rawk titles by our favourite Brooklyn, NYC crime family. Their constant switching of the lead vocals, their luv & fights makes the live show an experience of the anarchic GHETTO WAYS adventure. What is this three piece all about? Treated like outcasts in their hometown, the old world celebrate them as a hot act right on their first tour in 2004. |
Entertainment-madman
Harry Warwick III on the drums alone draw enuff attention with his raucous
bashing breaking ranks drumming. Not able to sit tight for a minute it´s
his boundless energy and filthy punk rock vocals delivering the steam.
On the opposite, Captain Shane Konen got the talent to do an outstanding
job on the bass, responsible for the undeniable rhythm. Again he´s
the mastermind getting the merits for recording/producing this album.
Yes, THIS is a blackly, yet brown garage rock record in its primal sense!
The gospel-fervour, the roaring guitars, the stunning soul lead vocals
and heartful screams is Jenna Young. The way she sings and rocks her way
through "Say Yeah" and "Get Up" is pure class. On
Solid Brown she takes the Solomon Burke classic "Home in Your Heart"
to a new level. Suspected of poaching in the STAX records box, getting
OBLIVIANS, STOOGES, CRIME, DEAD BOYS on the one and DIRTBOMBS, BELLRAYS
references on the other hand it´s not possible to steer the GHETTO
WAYS too far in any direction, which solely speaks for them. Witness the
raw power making the audience sweat like galley slaves, listen to "Way
Too Late" and imagine sold out clubs in late august! Those who've
shared time with slick soul men and women with polished shoes and Austin
Powers behavior might check their friends and rather bang on the trash
cans with the wild ones. It´s a kick in the balls. It´s naked
and real. See european tourdates below, GHETTO WAYS rampaging thru your
city in September 2005. Be there as often as you can and change undies
with the band! A US tour is planned for 2006, for those who not believe
yet. Suprisingly professional video of the new dance in town "The
Na Na" is available for download! Check out the black dude jamming
with the band! Find out some more of Harry´s multiple personalities!
Wonder why Jenna still isn´t on the album cover! LP is on 180g vinyl,
first couple hundred come with a large poster. |
THE GHETTO WAYS "s/t" LP/CD
For the dirty boys
in the parking lot! At the far end of 2003 we release an album of band
that will cause a lot of talk and excitment out there. Here are the troublemaking
GHETTO WAYS out of Brooklyn, New York City- a three piece on the loose,
here are Jenna (gt,vc), Shane (bs,vc) and Harry (dr,vc). This is no new
sympathy records girlie cover music, this is pure ghetto trash! Hey boys,
she got the look and we decided not to put her on the cover, so you don´t
have to argue with yer girlfriend for picking it up! For the real stimulation
vote her for a cover babe series in HORIZONTAL ACTION. Wrecked rocknroll..they
will winyour cheap scenester soul in no time, this is simply the coolest
shit right now. This is the selfrecorded debut album after the "Heart
Attack " 7" only 103 copies made (the rarest record of 2002?)..
The G.W. have the rhythm, the backbeat and more style than a whole motorcycle
gang. 13 smashers banned on 180g |
