One of the last remaining bands of the classic Austin mid/late 90's punk-psyche scene, the Down Syndrome Army blasts garage rock psychedelia (by way of Creedence, not the Dead) for anyone who's sick of today's snot rock.

It's more than a band, its a family, they say: Chip and Scon, two early vocalists, live in Korea and contribute to the song-writing, and the current live/recording outfit is a tight foursome of Charlie, Duke, Jimbo, and the fearsome Lehra Gore on bass, now touring around the dusty backstreets of your town.
The Army just put out "Fire In The Fan", a flat-out ballbuster of a record that's conscripted many loyal fans and critics. The word is President Obama's staff has been considering using the song "NEW MILLENIUM" as the theme to a re-tooled domestic policy.
Get the CD in your hands, get the band to your town, and get down til you can't get up.
Party til your pregnant
