Rick Froberg

Hot Snakes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Hot Snakes was an American post-punk/post-hardcore band led by Rick Froberg and John Reis, formed in 1999. In 2003 Kourkounis left the Hot Snakes to play full-time with The Burning Brides, Mario Rubalcaba (The Black Heart Procession, Clikatat Ikatowi, Rocket From The Crypt, 411, Chicanochrist) was called in to play the drums. While the Hot Snakes have called it a day, John Reis continues to play with Mario Rubalcaba in the power pop trio The Sultans and run the Swami Record label. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Hot_Snakes   (488 words)

Hot Snakes - PopMatters Concert Review Their leader is left-handed Hot Snakes bass player Gar Woods who has reclaimed guitar duties alongside Dustin Millsap (semi-official Rocket From The Crypt dancing boy). Gar Wood looks a little sheepish later when guitarist John Reis jokes that Hot Snakes may not be a party band, but "feel free to leave with a broken neck or something." But Hot Snakes leave little room for talking because few gaps exist between each intensely driven song. Despite playing for about forty minutes, Hot Snakes are happy to return to the stage and oblige the crowd further in a four-song encore. www.popmatters.com /music/concerts/h/hot-snakes-020816.shtml   (1313 words)

Hot Snakes - USA Hot on the heels of the recently released, and critically acclaimed Audit In Progress album, come the band's new Peel Sessions album which, in turn, brings the band to Australia for their first ever tour. Hot Snakes are a blast of thick air amongst the current brown swell of watery pap. GRAND FATAL, hot off the national tour with Grinspoon and Shihad and with the new single "Chaser Eraser" sitting nicely in the top end of the Australian Independent charts, they will be joining the fun for these three shows before taking some well earned time off. www.custommade.com.au /int_bands/hotsnakes.htm   (374 words)

Hot Snakes - Sonicporn   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25) A super group of sorts, fans are bound to flock to Hot Snakes simply because two of its members - John Reis and Rick Froeberg - were members of such seminal bands as Drive Like Jehu, Rocket from the Crypt, and Pitchfork. All this juggling has allowed the Hot Snakes to maintain a loose and creative approach to things, which has led to three albums of fun, brutal punk rock. When not over using the word dude, Hot Snakes spoke of how they wanted “this one to be different” and constantly pointed to an unopened bottle of Tequila. sonicporn.info /wiki/index.php?content_id=104   (3765 words)

Hot Snakes, MP3 Music Download at eMusic Hot Snakes consisted of guitarist/vocalists John Reis and Rick Froberg, drummer Jason Kourkounis, and bassist Gar Wood. That's likely how Hot Snakes wanted it, as their twisting, convulsive mixture of punk revivalism, hardcore screed, and general weirdness was as royally screwed up as their genealogy. But Hot Snakes did rally for a new album, October 2004's Audit in Progress, regarded by many as their finest work. www.emusic.com /artist/11499/11499748.html   (373 words)

Hot Snakes Music and Discussion Hot Snakes are a fantastic take on San Diego punk rock by some of the most important people in the scene. Lead by dynamic duo John "Speed" Reis and Rick Froberg, the kingpins behind legendary wall-of-feedback pioneers Drive Like Jehu, the Hot Snakes play dark, driving songs that build and build with tension pounding out of every note. Their first record, Automatic Midnight, was notable for the lack of a bass guitar, with low-end duties instead handled by a synthesizer and some brilliant drumming by Jason Kournakiss to create a rythm section that turns the old punk rock status quo on it's ear. www.gnoosic.com /discussion/hot+snakes.html   (208 words)

punknews - HOT SNAKES R.I.P   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25) From their inception, Hot Snakes was a sporadic cross country art project that catered wholly to the impulses of it's parts. Hot Snakes achieved far more than their expectations and exceeded beyond what they thought possible given the multitude of limitations that shaped their situation. Hot Snakes are survived by three full length albums and a Peel Session EP. www.punknews.com /article.aspx?id=36b9136b-54ff-439f-8630-1e6696720dcb   (217 words)

Hot Snakes - Automatic Midnight (Swami) - Drawer B Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25) By: Eric G. If you've been missing Drive Like Jehu like I have, then you will be ecstatic to find out that Hot Snakes reunites John Reis (also from Rocket From The Crypt) and Rick Fork, the respective guitarist and vocalist for that seminal early nineties band. Hot Snakes has a bit more early punk bluster than Drive Like Jehu's paranoid assault, but the sound is at once invigorating and familiar. This band claims to be the salvation for those feeling cheated and dismayed by the current trend of sappy punk, and it is no lie. www.drawerb.com /features/949955162.htm   (359 words)

Review: Hot Snakes   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25) LIVE AT BOWERY BALLROOM, N.Y.C. Some asshole from the Hot Snakes had the guts to take the stage an hour before they started to play bass with some shitcan band calling themselves Beehive and the Barracudas. Hot Snakes are the same two guitarists from Drive Like Jehu; and the one fellow, John Reis, runs Rocket from the Crypt. As Hot Snakes, they play psychotic, droning punk, the kind that induces comas or slashings (take your pick). www.rivative.net /reviews/hotsnakes.html   (536 words)

HOT SNAKES Hot Snakes formed in 1999 as a bi-coastal collaboration of down stroke enthusiasts. John Reis of Rocket From The Crypt, Drive Like Jehu and other punk atrocities along with Jason Kourkounis (aka J. Sinclair of Mule and Delta 72) convened in San Diego for a whirlwind session that gave birth to the Hot Snakes dark white sound. A year or so passed and the Hot Snakes were ready to regroup, but this time as an initiated foursome. www.cnltouring.co.uk /HS.html   (493 words)

Oh My Rockness ((Hot Snakes)) In 2003, Hot Snakes posted a message on their website that said, "We are not going to tour and we have no plans to do so." Yoinks! Hot Snakes aren't really the second coming of the legendary Jehu, but the band does include vocalist Rick Froberg (or Rick Farr depending on which Jehu liner notes you read) and John Reis (also of the mighty Rocket From the Crypt). Even though Hot Snakes are perhaps a more streamlined version of Jehu, all the weird hardcore twisted punk Jehu patented and perfected is still present. www.ohmyrockness.com /BandBio.cfm?BandID=181   (194 words)

Music | Hot Snakes   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25) But Audit in Progress finds Froberg and Hot Snakes’ other principal songwriter and guitarist, John Reis (of Rocket from the Crypt), further honing a craft that they’ve been working on together since their first collaboration, Pitchfork, in the mid ’80s, and later in the seminal post-hardcore band Drive like Jehu. They distill the rhythmically and structurally complex songs of Jehu, complete with mindfuck meter changes and noisy guitar experimentation, into two- and three-minute blasts infused with a hint of the cocksure psychobilly punk attitude of Rocket from the Crypt. But there are numerous moments — the addictive guitar melody in "Plenty for All" and the pulse-accelerating ending of "Reflex," for instance — that grab you and shake you in a way that Hot Snakes’ previous efforts didn’t. www.providencephoenix.com /music/otr/documents/04377113.asp   (170 words)
