Closing in on three decades, The Spits have signified the crossroads between punk mayhem and well-honed songwriting, creating some of the most unhinged and anthemic tracks in underground music while standing tall enough to be uttered in the same breath as names like Jay Reatard, Dead Moon, Ty Segall and more.The Spits are readying their highly anticipated VI, due May 1 via their own Thriftstore Records imprint. Recorded by Erik Nervous on cassette four track, the bands new LP VI is ten hummable tracks, shrouded in chainsaw punk that mesh the wild showmanship of party-rock legends Van Halen and the leather-clad toughness and songwriting chops of the Misfits. Marking a return to roots approach for the LP, the band decided to record and write VI in the basements of Kalamazoo and Grand Rapids, Michigan over the course of several spurts of activity, each yielding a few new songs from a terrible drum kit with a literal thrift store guitar. Weve only been into an actual studio like three times, admits Sean Wood. I dont think weve had one record that was recorded all in one place, this may be the closest thing. And for these songs wed record a couple tracks, step away and go back at it later sometimes weeks later. You know, take our time.Originally from Kalamazoo, Michigan, brothers Sean and Erin Wood formed The Spits with Lance Phelps in 1993 after realizing rock had gone limp, hated partying and just plain wasnt fun anymore. And even though they didnt even know how to play, the self-professed deliquents who grew up with New Orleansstyle jazz and bluegrass got cultured and formed a band dead set on reminding the world how to have a good time. The Spits didnt fit in with the punks or the garageheads when they landed in Seattle two years later, but carved out their own path with a series of empty open mic nights and parties under a bridge in the University District. Things started snowballing a year or two later with a good word from Mudhoneys Steve Turner and a reputation for livewire gigs.https://suxmusic.bandcamp.com/musicWith a musical style that can only be described as really good, SUX has captivated audiences worldwide.
