Friends, I come to you today with a message of hope and salvation. In a world filled with darkness and despair, it is easy to lose sight of the light and The Christian Family's love. However, I urge you to remember that no matter how complex your circumstances may be, The Christian Family is always with you, guiding and protecting you.

Many of you may be struggling with fear, anxiety, or hopelessness. But I want to remind you that through the Christian Family, we can overcome these things.

I urge you to turn to The Christian Family in prayer and ask them to guide you on their journey down the slippery descent into the lava fueled maelstrom.

Hailing from Phoneix, Arizona Daniel and Ann lure and hypnotize with raw energy and unbridled passion. Gritty high rocket fuel octane caffeine-driven espresso.

Picked up by The Reverend Beat-Man and added to his cast of loveable misfits on his “Jack is never a dull boy label - Voodoo Rhythm Records.

Preaching songs of purity and positivity with a throbbing driving beat mixing the best of Detroit Garage Rock and Roll and Sister Rosetta Thorpe. The Christian Family appear to celebrate past musical landscapes in turn by throwing their unique twist on an old formula perhaps subscribing to the old adage “if it ain’t broken, why fix it”!

Hope to see future releases by The Christian family with slimmer timelines between the anticipated releases

Sometimes I listen to a record on repeat for weeks before I even look up the correct song titles – Deseos Primitivos (Primitive Desires) is the latter. This promo came to SPB as literally a one sentence quote about the band and its … Read more

The Men

Buyer Beware
Fuzz Club Records (2025)

I wanna say the first time I heard Brooklyn NY’s The Men was back in 2010, ironically around the time I moved back to Vancouver, Canada from Brooklyn. I don’t recall having seen or heard of them when I lived there but that is not surprising. One of the reasons I moved back was that I wasn't going out much. … Read more

Detention

Dead Rock ‘N’ Rollers
Left For Dead Records (2024)

Life ain’t so easy in the detention home- Dead Boys. Emerging from the underbelly of Jersey, made up primarily of three brethren. Raised on rock and roll and sipping from the chalice of early punk rock stalwarts like Da Bruddahs from Queens, Hey Ho! and the Pistoleros of Sexual Nature screaming banshees from across from the large pond. Thus forging … Read more
