CLOCKCLEAN ER on the COVER of a NE@WSPAPER
The PW finally found a topic worth the cover price. It's an essay about the premier group in the Skull Music Movement: CLOCKCLEAN ER. It re-treads ancient history and takes liberties with quotations from the principles, but you might as well read it over here.

Hey Freaks
The call just came around the horn. Those HOMOSTUPIDS singles are shipped and on their way to HQ. Richie Records is truly blessed to be a part of this and everyone out there is lucky to live in this exciting age. You all had better get down or lay down. They're gonna cost you 5 bucks each. We will accept MOs and maybe even paypal. Get in touch for details.
While you're waiting to get the record in your hairy palms, take a peek at an interview with a member of HOMOSTUPIDS on a competing weblog.

Recent Spins; Singles Edition: a little hole, a big hole, 14 inches all told
Hey readers, here's what's been keeping the office abuzz. Reviews of records written by the staff. Scroll down to see what we've got to sell.
HOME BLITZ 45 rpm 7inch single
Retarded teenage sounds. Probably not made by a teenager. Assuredly made by one dude all by himself. This shit swings like high school desperation. Like if you can play all the rock instruments and cut a record maybe she’ll let you get a grip on her shit. The mailorder department working out a deal to stock this title.
HOMOSTUPIDS “the Glow” ep 45 rpm 7inch single
Distorted nihilist shit that is totally ready to hit the fan. Ready to knock shit the fuck DOWN. They know how to let a dude spit fire and tarter sauce into a mic and when to let a guitar fucking breathe man. For real you, the speakers will rattle when the band starts, but they’ll try and strangle you when the vocals kick in. We liked this one so much we got a limited number to sell through the mail. We liked it so much that we’re releasing a record by the group called “the Brutal Birthday” ep.
Well those are our reviews this time around, folks. Maybe next time we'll tell you about the Sex Pistols. No Feelings and all that. We're working out deals to release music by the PROFOS and KISS, so stay tuned as that develops.

Description of Products
,,,buy now,,,
VIOLENT STUDENTS "Time to Surf!" cs
An analog effort from some anxious and unapologetic Students. Sublime ferocity is the way to describe this one. Sublime ferocity and a backhand to the breadbox. And then it kind of trails off. These are going fast.
RR 03
,,,buy later,,,
VIOLENT STUDENTS "Street Banger" 12"
Another strangulated hard volume from the free-HC-sike scumfucs of the pile-up. This one's recorded live before an oversexed and underdressed warehouse audience and it features guest vocals by the naked chicks in the front row. Could've been even sicker but some busy body stopped recording. Zapped up, slowed down, and ahead of your time.
RR//TT 06
HOMOSTUPIDS "the Brutal Birthday" e.p.
Six damaged muscular curveball nutbusters on this one. The Clevo rage-aholics' first phase: a heavily distorted rag-tag outfit stewed in the cellar of the limpest zipcode in the midwest. Improbably catchy, anthemic, and one-sided.
