mcr profile
Seventies punk rock still hasn't died in Detroit, Mich. Whether
you're a fan or not, you've got to admit that the Clone Defects
embody an old-school rock & roll ethic that's pretty darn
admirable.
That means 'let the Pabst flow and turn er' up.' This band is not
one of the self-pomotin', latter-climbin' persuasion. They do
their
thing, and if you like it, great, and if you don't, well that's too
damn
bad. Timmy Vulgar even had to be talked into doing a publicity
photo
for the Detroit MetroTimes once.
They released their first singles in 1999 on the Ypsilanti-based Tom Perkins Records and Dave Buick's Italy Records. Timmy has produced and
engineered virtually all of the Clone Defects recordings except
for a couple singles
which were recorded by Jack White and
then
mixed by Timmy along with Jim Diamond. In 2003,
they
recorded Shapes of Venus
at Ghetto Recorders. --Ryan Sult
