We are going to play clips from that interview and intersperse it with some Teenage Head classics. We’re going to start out with where the band got started. You can download the show here.

Holy Shit! Discography review
Back in 2004 Mark Pesci brought the Catholic Boys to town. The Catholic Boys were a garage punk n roll band from Neenah, Wisconsin. They were kind of a big deal at the time or at least I thought so and they brought another band from a neighbouring scene in Milwaukee a band called Holy Shit!. We did a last minute studio 3 sessions with both bands but I was super impressed with Holy Shit!. A few weeks ago Andre was asking me about Holy Shit out of the blue. We bought their discography together and decided to review it together.

Demo Feature
This recording came out as a 12” in March 2013, but was originally sold as a cassette by the band when they were called Brain Fever. I just came across the recording on the Sophie’s Floorboard blog and listened to their material and super dig it. So the cassette is self-titled and look for the song titles on the blog. This band was from Toronto and this material can be found on their bandcamp.
