Life Under Quarantine

In Bob Porter's words, "A Political Song." It's a little reggae, a little punk. It's a live version. I don't know which show it's from. Just enjoy the damn thing, it's a decent version.

01 Post Modern Jigaboo

this song is from Dock of the Bus Stop, our first release. Most of our songs were pretty serious, but we did have a fun side.    

01 Pink Dots From Mars

We recorded this at Duquesne University, they had recently added a sound design major. We were Brian Cobb's class project. The songs came out well, and were the backbone of the Something Invincible release.

Magnet of Bad Luck

Balancing  Act was written while the band was working on a picket line for a local grocery union. We weren't hired so much for our activism, as we were for the somewhat scary images that we presented. It was work, and our release Welfare Dub, and this song, which was released a few years later, were the results.

Balancing Act

This is a song that never made too many releases. We recorded this when Jeff Flaherty was in the band on guitar, and Toby Houser on bass. It was done at the Granati Brothers Studio in Coraopolis, Pa. The Granati's are a musical dynasty dating back several generations. They toured with various famous rock bands, and working there was a pleasure. The best compliment we ever had was when Dave Granati called us Lifers. As in we would play music until the end of our days.

Nobody Knows But I

This is a digitally polished version of a song from an earlier release now available as part of the Superman and That girl EP on Amazon and iTunes. It is the hottest track from the 90's and I would put it up against classics like Ace of Spades, Sonic Reducer or Anything by the New York Dolls. I love all those songs, but I think this is just as good. So pop on some headphones, buckle up and prepare for the 100 mile an hour propulsion of Thrilling Cities.

Thrilling Cities

This is Bob Porter's signature version of this Otis Redding tune. Many have tried, but few have made it their own the way Bob did. Wheteher ending the set, or ending the evening's performance, this song made it into almost every show's set list. I post this for the anniversary of his birth, to honor his memory and all the birthdays that we shared.

Live from Somewhere

Dock of the Bay

These are songs from the first Thin White Line release back in 1987. Recorded on a 4 track reel to reel with just a few microphones and basic equipment, it's a great example of the punk DIY attitude of the time.

Another Day In the Compound

This features recordings from bands I've played in over the years. New material is in the future. Groups include Thin White Line, Eraserhead and Kitsch.
