I Loved Belinda Carlisle

Bow Down

Japanese Candy

It all started in a stink bug-infested attic in Point Breeze. That's Pittsburgh, PA.

Eric Luden arrived packing a rucksack full of lyrics and a Stratocaster. Drummer Jay Salmon brought West Coast punk rock chops and knack for a catchy arrangement. Next came band virgin Nell “Fuzzy G” Gladson, filling out the rhythm section on bass. 

After playing a few gigs as The Buscemis, the group sensed that something was missing. That something turned out to be lead guitarist and PhD of sound John Neumann. Now, the groove was just right and Kontrol Cow was born.

Recording was fast and furious--and so is Twenty-Two. An album full of mood swings from punky pop to grungy rock and everywhere in between. Luden's bitingly cynical lyrics float above Salmon's relentlessly aggressive drum beats and Neumann's deliciously complex guitar riffs. Fuzzy G holds an agile bass line to bring it all down to Earth. 

After just one listen, you'll be a member of the Kontrol Cow Kollective.
