	The Fleshtones Hall of Fame
		Known informally as The Fleshtones Hall of Fame, here is your virtual home for The Fleshtones, the four most exciting men in rock & roll.
		Since the summer of 1976 The Fleshtones have been blending rock & roll with R&B, and garage with dance and serving it from town to town across the globe with a smile, a great attitude, and lots of late-night sweat.
		To quote Keith: "How and why The Fleshtones started was that there was a place to do it!" Countless "Blue Whale Bashes," Lower East Side sightings, and an endless string of gigs and records later, The Fleshtones continue to record and perform with a wit, passion, and energy that few bands can top.

	The Deli - Interview with We Are Scientists
		The Fleshtones are one of the best examples of a band that managed to recycle a sound of the past for a newer generation.
		The Fleshtones also seem to flirt with soundtracks of those movies and TV series that somehow reincarnated the forbidden myths and dreams of the youth of that generation.
		The pompous pace of the title-track, the grotesque and macabre boogie of "Screaming Skull" (with its solemn organ riffs, monstrous sax counterpoints and menacing choir), the idiotic r'n'b instrumental "Legend of a Wheelman," all recreate a sort of psychological trip inside the stream of consciousness of the average adolescent.

	Yep Roc Records > Artist Info
		Their choice of material is the music they’ve grown up grooving to: ‘60s garage rock (from The Seeds to The Standells), British pop (a la The Yardbirds) and funky, backfield-in-motion soul.
		By ’78, their high-energy shows, neo-psychedelic sound (tremolo guitars, trash, fuzz organ and pounding drums) gain The Fleshtones a rep as a don’t-miss live band, even if the art-punk set—at first—dismisses them as a “dance/twist band” (Streng’s words).
		After over two decades of playing “retro” rock, The Fleshtones have themselves become timeless—the harmonica, the “power stance” (that’s standing and facing down the audience with your arms folded and legs spread, ready to do rock battle), the Three Stooges-style banter and onstage antics.

	The Fleshtones in Vancouver
		When we bought some of their merch (including a copy of their new disc Beachhead), frontman Peter Zaremba came over and humbly asked if we wanted him to sign the CD - and then took it over to the rest of the band for each one of them to sign.
		In the face of the Fleshtones' choreographed stage moves, call-and-response vocals, and infectious attitude there was none of the usual hipster reserve, just a lot of moving body parts.
		After a too-short set the Fleshtones only did one encore because they were heading back to Seattle at 4 in the morning to catch a flight back to Noo Yawk.

	Splendid Magazine reviews The Fleshtones: Beachhead
		The Fleshtones, along with the Lyres and the Mono-Men, kept this particular style alive through the silly 1970s and the synthy-serious 1980s.
		The Fleshtones, once from Queens and now from Brooklyn, have been in the business of kicking rock asses since 1976.
		The Fleshtones are approaching the status of living legends, a name-drop band revered by people like Deborah Harry and Peter Buck and cited as influential by countless younger garage revivalists.

	Music Preview: Frontman says Fleshtones still fresh
		The Fleshtones may drop by the Warhol on their way to rock the 31st Street Pub tonight.
		I was in the Fleshtones because I remember talking to him about the Fleshtones a little bit and him saying, 'Oh that sounds fabulous' -- his usual [nonsense].
		Although the Fleshtones formed in Queens and hit the punk scene in '76 -- right place, right time -- Zaremba says they never really fit the punk-rock mold with their infectious take on '60s party-rock.

	Brendan Calling from the Underground: An Old Piece: Fleshtones, WTC, July 27, 2001
		This was easily one of the best Fleshtones shows I have ever seen, from the the surreal venue to the surreal audience to the surprise appearance by Gordon Spaeth to the climactic finish.
		The Fleshtones were actually the beginning of a really long weekend; the plan was to see the band, stay at a friend's house (I don't live in NYC unfortunately), and head up to Maine for a bluegrass festival the next morning.
		As I've written before, the genius of the Fleshtones is their combination of sincerity, with a good bit of tongue in cheek, and that throbbing, stomping, irristable beat.

	MySpace.com - The Fleshtones - Hitsburg, NEW YORK - Garage / Pop - www.myspace.com/fleshtones
		When The Fleshtones first appeared on the New York City scene in 1976 they were a decidedly retro outfit, celebrating the glorious abandon of sixties garage bands.
		OK, my fave Fleshtones moment was back in the early eighties - I had been stranded in New Orleans for a few months, and was thrilled to see that one of my fave bands from when I lived in LA was gonna play at a club there, Tipitina's I think it was.
		Seeing The Fleshtones play was a delicious and exciting taste of home, and I danced until I was exhausted.

	The Fleshtones Archive - The Fleshtones
		The Fleshtones have been busy since the last time we talked to them (see issue #20), but the line up has remained the same - with Pete and Bill joined by Keith Streng on guitar, Ken Fox on bass, Steve Greenfield on sax and Joe Laposki on trumpet.
		This most recent show was their second time through London and they were glad to be back, mostly because they "don't owe anybody any money up here".
		Touring seems to be a fact of life for the Fleshtones although, this time through they did have a new product to peddle, their newest album on Trafalgar Records, 'Powerstance'.

	Secure in 'obscurity'
		Like their '60s heroes, the Fleshtones have had a career that has largely been a comedy of errors.
		It wasn't that they set out to sound like they did; they just played to the best of their sometimes limited abilities, but they were inspired and they wanted to do it.
		Zaremba and his bandmates have long since resigned themselves to the fact that the Fleshtones will never be superstars--"I always say there is no trend that will ever help the Fleshtones," the singer says--but they're more than content to balance their ongoing status as underground rock gods with pay-the-rent day jobs.

		The Fleshtones are no strangers to the area they dub “Capitaland, USA,” typically visiting from their native Brooklyn several times a year.
		Little advertisement and an otherwise less-than-enticing bill led to a meager crowd of 20 or so fans and friends, filled in by bar regulars who had no idea what they were in for.
		As only a mature band can, the Fleshtones ignored the underwhelming audience presence and marched through their set as if surrounded by thousands of screaming, dance-crazed fans—an illusion they’ve certainly earned by now.

		No, the Fleshtones aren't from Boston, they are a stone Manhattan outfit.
		There are strong links between the martini kings and the home of the Baked Bean, however, both in terms of their sound and its roots in garage Americana and in less definable, more synchronistic areas.
		During the 1988 Mardi Gras celebration the Fleshtones were part of the crew assembled to join the parade as members of the Lyons Marching Club.

	Queens Tribune
		Peter Zaremba, the lead singer of garage rock band the Fleshtones, remembers what the musical landscape of Queens was like as a kid growing up Flushing in the early 1970s.
		The Fleshtones’ imperfect sound had its origins in a Whitestone home during the summer of 1976 when two roommates, Keith Streng and original bassist Jan-Marek Pakulski, discovered instruments in a basement left by a previous tenant.
		The Fleshtones have outlasted their punk contemporaries and are still playing both here and abroad.

	TrouserPress.com :: Fleshtones
		Amazingly, Streng and Zaremba's aged-in-the-studio songwriting hasn't lost its colorful zest, which means that the group's recent albums are just as likely to prove wide- eyed and wonderful as their first blasts of serious fun.
		The results are uneven, though the high points are sublime: the snarling prehistoric Kinks guitars of "Way Up Here," the raise-the- dead soul fervor of "Whatever Makes You Happy," a swift remake of Cornelius Brothers and Sister Rose's "Treat Her Like a Lady" and so on.
		It's tempting to blame the letdown on "engineer" Steve Albini, but other than razorblading Streng's guitar tone with his patented anti-lapidary trebling action and organizing inappropriately harsh and thin sound, he doesn't appear to be at fault.

		To Tom L. and Ted H. (sadly, dead), and all the other Fleshtones maniacs out there: they're back and they sound great.
		To all of you who think that the Hives are anything special: just feast your poor tired ears on this record here.

	Do You Swing? - The Fleshtones - Music Reviews
		Some folks like to say that history is cyclical, and it certainly supports this theory that just as a bunch of young bucks have (once again) come along to say that rock & roll is getting stale and needs a good dose of high attitude and fuzz-tone energy, the Fleshtones -- who've been saying the...
		is one of the strongest Fleshtones albums to date, boasting material every bit as potent as what they served up on Roman Gods and Hexbreaker, and sounding fresh, energetic, and gloriously alive.
		And from the Swingin' Medallions-esque "I'm Back Again," the R&B-flavored "Hard Lovin' Man," the tribute to rock's greatest chord changes, "1-4-5," and their ode to living in one of Brooklyn's least-gentrified neighborhoods, "Destination Greenpoint," the Fleshtones have come up with a batch of top-shelf songs that show them to their advantage.
