The Professors release new ep
Once in a while I come across a local band that romances my eardrums and temporarily cures me of my jaded view of music. This time around I have to credit The Professors for doing just that.
The brand new release from The Professors is everything you would expect from this tremendously trashy retrograde rock n’ roll 5-piece. It is fun, raw, hip, and nostalgic. The 6-tracks from the new ep, entitled Get Out Of My Head, will get your hips shaking and your wheels turning with enough energy, bloody beats, and non-filtered vocal wailing for anyone who loves rock music from bands like The Sonics.
Some of the most intriguing tracks on the cd are the horror blues of Hell on Wheels, and the title track, Get Out of My Head. Get Out Of My Head closes out the cd with a distorted bass walk-up, an active organ, and the scratchy voice of Richard Stockton yelling out the hook.
Along with Stockton, The Professors also include Tony Moore (guitar), Nick Yates (organ), Derek Gullett (bass), and Phil Cavenous (drums). The guys got together Sunday, September 3rd at Canal Street Tavern for the official release of the cd. The band is also releasing a 7-inch split with My Latex Brain simultaneously with the ep.
The band will drag their vintage guitars out on October 7th for The Dayton Music Fest. Pick up the ep at Dingleberry’s, Gem City Records, or CD Connection before you head out to see them and bring your dancing shoes.
