Do you know what what the hell a lithophone is? Because I sure as hell didn't, I had to look the shit up! I thought for a moment these guys made it up! But when I consulted old man Googles, he told me it's an ancient instrument made of rocks that produces sounds when struck. That's what it is, an instrument that knuckle dragging savages used to play. And that name is very fitting when it pertains to these Boston Barbarians! Lithophones consists of members of the Wongs and The Tampoffs so you know what you're in for now, don't you?!
Lithophones are a four piece garage punk outfit from Beantown U.S.A. and these guys channel the mean, sweaty punk rock that these ears yearn to hear. Think Rip Off Records, think Teengenerate, The Brides, The Problematics, think all that cool 90's shit that went away and you so desperately wish it would come back in full force. Well stop pulling on those nasty wishbones and blowing up those dandelion fields because the angels of the bottomless pit have raised this rock n roll band of demons from within the steaming bowels of the earth.
Right now, you can go hear the band's raw, fuzz drenched demo's on Bandcamp but I got a little sneak peak at some new recordings they're working on and I'm here to tell you it's going to scorch earth. I love it when a band does that, it's what I live for as a matter of fact. These guys are scheduled to play with The Sleeveens and Adult Learners on April 16th at Deep Cuts in Medford, MA. So show up early and make sure you're near a load bearing structure because hurricane season starts early this year and Lithophones are gonna usher in the storm of the century!
