The Gories
 

Any other fans out there? I don't think I've ever heard anybody mention them on here......just wonderin'. Later.



It's early in the morning and I ain't got nothing but the blues.....

i've read of jack white being a big fan. they look pretty cool.
i know you fine.. but how you doin?
that's one of the greatest cd titles ever

Damn right it is!!!

Wow that picture look kick-ass. I only know the name, never heard any of the music. Looks to quite be interesting... I'll check em out, thanks.

Not to mention that Mick sometimes sings with a hint of Jimi Hendrix in his voice....fantastic.

Ha ha....Lake Trout. Dude I told you I can't draw with a fucking mouse!!!

Never heard of them but that's one kick ass photograph.

what's a good first listen krastian?

Well I'm pretty sure there is really only 2 "albums" that you can get, but either way I'd get I Know You Fine, But How You Doin'.....cool artwork/writings inside too.

Never heard them but I got to listen to Dirtbombs, lead by Mick Collins.
This man's got a great voice and can produce really good sounding music.
The Gories line-up is a bit of a mystery for me. There was a Dan playing the guitar & I read a few contradictory things. Is he the one who would end up in a tiny skirt for Demolition Doll Rods or not?
How close the Gories are to Dirtbombs and DDR and the Blues Explosion?

Well in terms of the Blues Explosion they are not as loud/insane and the drums are a lot simpler too. I honestly haven't heard enough of The Dirtbombs to compare them to The Gories:confused:

I like them. The other day I was watching some of their shows on youtube--you should do a search if you haven't yet.

Here's a cool video of Mick Collins playing with the White Stripes (and a cool iggy pop cover at the end)

Pretty cool.

bump ba-dump bump, 'cause i just listened to houseparty.

did anyone go to one of the gories/oblivians reunion gigs?

I'd not heard them until just now. I'd heard the name better never really gave them much thought. From the clips I just heard on youtube though, I think I love them.

They're fantastic.

mick collins was interviewed on the soft focus recently

Don't forget The Blacktop. It's a link between The Gories and The Dirtbombs

I like what I've heard, but I definitely want to hear more.
