"Int'l Shades is the sort of band NYC needs more of - kind of an odd thing to say about a decidedly untrendy quartet of veterans (including Bob Bert, once of Sonic Youth and Pussy Galore, and Mark C of Live Skull.) But when musicians who've been around the block (and not just clockwise, either) set down rough-edged melodic rock songs, their assured nature rips the white belt off the local scene." - Time Out NY, November 2005

i can't wait for their new album, i love the title: EVOL

David Grohl is a better SY drummer, that's why they kicked Bob out. Thurston wanted a John Bonham style drummer.

I heard Diam M for Motherfucker sold 2 million copies in Poland. I'm sure Bert did his market research before joining Spencer and co. He knew who the real cash cows were.
