The Von Bondies were a four piece Garage Band from Detroit who were active from 1997 - 2001 with the obligatory reunion from 2020 to date. Lead singer and guitarist Jason Stollsteimer has been the only constant member followed closely by drummer Don Blum.
They released three albums - Lack of Communication (2001, Sympathy for the Record Industry), Pawn Shoppe Heart (2004, Sire) and Love, Hate and Then There's You (2009, Majorodomo)
I have burns of the first two (via the much missed Record library perhaps).I've not listened to them in an age so I have decided to downgrade from a Burn to a Download to free up space on the shelves
I have just had a listen to the title tracks of the first two albums and feel vindicated with this decision. See what you think
Coincidentally I purchased those first two albums.
ReplyDeleteAnd you have inspired me! Playing Pawn Shoppe Heart right now
DeleteI may have got my burns from you!
DeleteThe Von Bondies biggest claim to fame was their singer got hospitalised by Jack White after Jack started dating Marcie Bolen, the bands bassist and the two felt out. That said 'C'mon C'mon' is a belting track.

This kind of information is what we're hear for!

DeleteSaw Von Bondies supporting White Stripes at the Leadmill 2001 (no fisticuffs then!). I remember being fairly unimpressed so obviously I must have been at the bar for Lack of Communication which is a great track.
