Deep Thuds

2013 debut album from Spacin', the newly formed Philadelphia act that's bringing together kick-flippers, arm-wrestlers, and hackey-sackers in head-nodding, beer-swilling unity. Inhale the same fumes that fueled the Velvets' workout at the Gymnasium, the Stooges' sleazy-fuzz with Asheton on guitar, and the groovy zen of Nigeria '70. Originally a basement-only solo thing consisting of [Jason] Killinger playing guitar through a pyramid of amps accompanied by a drum machine, Spacin' has started to squeak itself above ground and into the barrooms of the city with a fully functioning lineup. The dude doesn't even need the drum machine anymore; he's got his wife Eva pounding the skins!
