IHRTN Time Machine – '08 – Boss Hog, Cosmic Psychos and more!

Time to dive into IHRTN history again – featured this time is a collection of info on bands that put out their material via the almighty Amphetamine Reptile label!

Boss Hog – Jon Spencer’s post-Pussy Galore unit – nowhere near as controversial as PG, but still crazy in a good way.
Bushpig –  Noisy Aussie punks with ties to King Snake Roost, Thrown-Ups and Lubricated Goat.
Calvin Krime – Sean Tillman’s (Har Mar Superstar) first band.
Casus Belli – A.k.a. Anthony Martin, formerly of Bastards.
Chokebore – Honolulu combo that relocated to LA in the early 90s and started weaving strange tails about coats, insects and water.
Cosmic Psychos – Original Aussie drunk-punks – an influence on…Pearl Jam!

Also – check out AmRep Mixtape #1 and Glorious Din From Down Under, as well as updated articles on CK, Psychos, Chokebore and Boss Hog.
