Dost

Memphis-born songwriter Jeremy Freeze has spent the last few years in Columbia, Missouri playing and recording with Kim Sherman. Freeze says more by saying less, after a few years of gigs with Times New Viking, Wooden Wand and a short list of more or less limited releases.

JERUSALEM AND THE STARBASKETS

Room 8 b/w Swingin' Vine

(Destijl - IND078) 7-inch $6.50 (Out-of-stock)

This duo (sometimes augmented) plays unfashionable, unpretentious and completely devastating pop music, though there is scant evidence -- a handful of impossibly rare cassettes and a split LP with Skarkraou Radio, and The Howling LP (Radio Fonico). With a vibe that sounds like the third Velvet Underground LP played by The Terminals, a righteous guitar tone any stoner rock Chud would envy, and catchy, infectious tunes (with a recent emphasis on country melodies) that will stay in your head for weeks.
