Recorded in 2002 in Chicago and Memphis during a special reunification, the band wails through their trademark garage, rock, soul and country output, and are joined by JOHN WHITTEMORE on pedal steel and baritone guitar (Memphis show only).
Recorded sporadically at home between 1999 and 2000, Desperate Little Town is a grand mixture of both covers and original songs produced in both lo-fi and full-bodied sound.
A strange and unholy record that includes the songs "Death Party"--rumored be co-written by San Francisco's FLIPPER and Pierce and the apocalyptic preaching of the haunting and beautiful "The House on Highland Avenue." Includes four previously unreleased bonus tracks from a live radio broadcast from Geneva, Switzerland in March 1983.

 The Von Bondies - Lack of Communication - Review - Stylus Magazine
A record that doesn’t need to bluntly promise "raw power" or "rock and roll as it was meant to be" to make its spirit clear.
Released on Sympathy for the Record Industry, the album was produced by Jack White of the White Stripes.
Sympathy for the Record Industry’s been doing it for years, and they haven’t done anything to promote the aforementioned revival.

In the ’00s, the band sweats the soul of a hard-working, industrial city — staining the armpits of dress-up stage wear, adding grime to fancy new stadiums and casinos until they match the grit and strength lining starched blue collars.

Once he hangs up, the goateed, shaggy-haired, anti-mogul who heads the indie label Sympathy For The Record Industry asks that I bear with him while he handles a bit of business.
Sympathy For The Record Industry is now 15 years old, still putting out music by largely unknown bands, and after some 700 releases, Long Gone John can come across as an affable grump, a punk curmudgeon who’s caustic barbs contain real wisdom.
With budgets microscopic even by indie standards, Sympathy pumped out music at a furious pace during the ’90s, at one point averaging a new release a week—some by groups that eventually made the leap to major labels like Hole, the Muffs and Rocket From The Crypt.

 Hot Snakes - Automatic Midnight (Sympathy for the Record Industry)
The Hot Snakes debut release, Automatic Midnight, is exactly what you would expect from the members of Drive Like Jehu, Rocket From the Crypt, and the Delta 72.
Since there are few bands that have affected me as much as Drive Like Jehu, I was ecstatic when I heard that Rick and John were getting back together to record and play again.
I was, and still am, amazed by the way Jehu were able to combine chaos, complexity, power, and intensity while still having a sturdy grounding and without coming across as masturbatory showoffs.

It was probably motivated in part by a suggestion by Sympathy for the Record Industry’s Long Gone John, that Ko put a songs on The Sympathetic Sounds of Detroit compilation.
Half a dozen shows and a dozen months later, the band celebrated the release of their self-titled debut on Sympathy, a twelve-song snapshot of the past and present of Detroit downtown scene, wrapped tightly in a package of heartbreaking harmony and coy go-getter, rock ‘n’ roll-girl sentiment.

 September 11, 2001 attacks - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the fourth airplane, fl box recordings reportedly revealed that crew and passengers attempted to seize control of the plane from the hijackers, who then rocked the plane in a failed attempt to subdue the passengers.
There is a dispute about the exact timing of the crash as the seismic record indicates that the impact occurred at 10:06 a.m.
In a 2004 video, apparently acknowledging responsibility for the attacks, bin Laden stated that he was motivated by the 1982 Lebanon War, which he held the U.S. partially responsible for.

Roky Erickson : The Evil One (Sympathy for the Record Industry)
Roky Erickson was very much a changed man when he re-emerged on the music scene in the late '70s after a deeply troubling stay in a mental institution following an arrest for drugs in 1969.
The British and American releases featured different track lineups, and each version featured songs which didn't show up on the other; to complicate matters all the more, early versions of three of the songs were released on a small-label EP in France.

 TrouserPress.com :: Oblivians
Sympathy Sessions (Sympathy for the Record Industry) 1996
The Oblivians' music could have been recorded in a town water tank with one mic; there's a stripped-down boogie chillun vibe that becomes almost trance-like.
With the Oblivians at their bluesiest, each of the songs (two originals and one each by Lowell Fulsom and Henry Glover) is an absolute knockout: dizzying, discordant, jousting and stuttering.

 RFTC.com - All Systems Go Review
This record was originally compiled and released in Japan, to coincide with the band's tour over there, as up until that point, RFTC records were not to be found.
The plan was to promote the band for the tour, and let people know who they were before they arrived for their tour.
It's nice to hear all of these styles, which were almost exclusive to each different record, mixed up together, and makes a more well-rounded record than anything released before it.

 The Beards Funtown Reviews
The label releasing the record (Sympathy for the Record Industry) has become notorious of late for spawning the media darlings The White Stripes.
Even though this record was made as a side project, it's clear the band expended a lot of effort and had a lot of fun along the way in putting this together.
It seems fitting that the last song on the record is a cover of Frank Black's "Thalassocracy" (from his Teenager of the Year album), which includes the lyrics "I want to sing for you/And make your head go pop".

 Metro Times Detroit - Record Review - Detroit Cobras - The Sympathetic Sounds of Detroit   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Each track produced and recorded by the White Stripes' Jack White in his home studio, with everyone using the same equipment, it’s a stellar representation of the diversity within the “sound,” from trash-blues to raunch-rock to Spector-ish pop stylings to catchy, organ-tinged gospels.
The recording technique lends a free-flowing nature to the overall atmosphere created, not a quality often found in comps, but clever production moves give it a jagged cut-and-paste feel, more in tune with the punk ethic of the musical spectrum.
Long Gone John, who runs Sympathy for the Record Industry, contacted Jack about his desire to release such a compilation.

 The Memphis Flyer :: the mid-south's news weekly: Music: Short Cuts: Short Cuts
Four years later, the Tearjerkers have released their second Sympathy for the Record Industry recording, Don't Throw Your Love Away.
The new release is never as inspired as Bad Mood Rising, but it's a more consistent and confident recording, and Jack Yarber's voice, which moves back and forth between a Dylanesque rasp and a Waitsian growl, has never sounded better.
It's wonderfully sloppy around the edges, and even the most serious tracks are infused with campy elements that are genuinely funny but never turn the songs into novelties: the police sirens mixed into "Dope Sniffing Dog"; the creepshow organs that punctuate the disc's most soulful moments.

Each new record, however, brings greater verve and more artistic self-assurance, as they have moved from foot-stomping garage music to incorporate gospel, plaintive field yodeling, Piedmont blues, urban Memphis sophistication and, of course, the volcanic cultural rumblings of once-prosperous cotton fields.

S3 sounds absolutely ecstatic on the concert recording Performance, which probably has more than a little to do with the fact that the gig it was taken from was in Amsterdam.
Although not well recorded, the album —; which ends with a meaty free-form freakout dubbed "Muzik Konkret" — captures the Spacemen aesthetic at its most aggressively blurred, with the only hints of lucidity coming from between-song tapes of vintage White Panther oratory.

 The State Of Art Is On Fire by Rocket From The Crypt at Audio Lunchbox
Focusing on some surprisingly heavy material, but still blasting forth with horns and howls, the record is classic RFTC and a must for any of the band's fans.
This may be one of their mid-career recordings, and the expansive styles nod to the future, but the energy on this record is actually much more reminiscent of the band's early days, and the speedy tempos mix with complicated vocals to create the rock sound that the band constantly strives for.
This isn't their most well-known record, but it is still one of their best, and its short duration is only made more evident by the fact that every song impresses during its brief stay.
