DUNGEONEERS - Tape - 2007

   So, there's this band called THE TERRIBLES and they have been a band since the 9th grade, which was 1997 for them, and they're still going pretty strong. Back in 2007, their drummer went away to Europe for a few months and I'm guessing that the other two members couldn't fathom being band-less for like, 3 months. So, they did what any self-respecting band members would do and started a medieval themed band where they dressed in floor-length tunic/robe type things with upside-down crosses printed on them and wrote songs about D&D, sacred scrolls and medieval tymes. They brought their friend, Matt Z (from the amazing BONEZONE) into the fold, who is a mild-mannered school teacher by day and a complete goddamn maniac (a lovable one) at every other time who cannot play the drums without making them fly away from him in every direction at a high velocity. They busted out these nine songs, made this tape and then....actually kept being a band. I played a show with them in 2011. This tape doesn't quite translate their love for the first 2 MEAT PUPPETS albums as seen through the eyes of three guys who are nerdy for comic books and dungeon masters like their live show does, but you'll get the point.
