Reis with a boon: Rocket from the Crypt, Hot Snakes man back with new band
TheBoyDeadly by TheBoyDeadly January 24th, 2008

Pitchfork; 1986 – 1990
Drive Like Jehu; 1990 – 1995

Itchy-fingered band harlot John ‘Speedo’ Reis has grown bored of inactivity and has thrown together a new line-up, comprised of ex-Hot Snakes members and the bass player from CPC Gangbangs, as the Night Marchers ready their debut album.

The band’ll play live shows, too – see further down the page for that Californians, Texans; everyone else gets news on the contents of See You In Magic:

‘Closed for Inventory’
‘In Dead Sleep (I Snore ZZZZ) ’
‘I Wanna Deadbeat You’
‘Jump in the Fire’
‘Branded’
‘Who's Lady R U? ’
‘You've Got Nerve’
‘Open Your Legs’
‘Bad Bloods’
‘And I Keep Holding On’
‘Total Bloodbath’
‘Panther in Crime’
‘We're Goin' Down’

The record should be out through a combination of John Reis’s own Swami imprint and Vagrant Records on April 22nd in the US, reports Pitchfork. Click to hear traxxx now at MySpace.

The band – featuring Reis, Gar Wood, Jason Karkounis and Tommy Kitsos – will play four dates in California next month before heading to South By South West.
