VOLUME 9, ISSUE 1

This issue came out in February 2009 and featured an interview with Career Suicide. There was a tour diary of Imants Krumins annual pilgrammage to Japan. Johnny Bubblegum writes some thoughts on the Last Pogo reunion show. A review of Chris Walter's "Personality Crisis: Warm Beer and Wild Times". And there are reviews, show listings, and a flyer page.

Rackshot demo 2008

Easton and Andrus from OUR FATHER / BURNING LOVE fame team up with the Bowden brothers to crank out some high energy dirty ass punk ‘n roll. This is a two song demo. The singer has a vocal delivery reminiscent of the Ian Svenonius from NATIONS OF ULYSSES – the once voted sassiest boy in America. But that should be no reflection on RACKSHOT. These guys belt out some heavy redneck brand of punk. It reminds me of STARVIN’ HUNGRY meets DANKO JONES. They have just recorded two new songs and a DEAD BOYS cover that hope to get a more official kind of release. The new recording is done in an official studio and sounds even better.
