The 'Lectric Chairs

In late 2003 the Los Angeles outfit 'Lectric Chairs ended their unofficial status by releasing the Sparkolounger EP on Dionysus. Marsh Gooch supplied vocals and guitar, Loren Molinare (ex-Dogs) handled lead guitar, Jose Ferro played bass, and Bob Terry sat behind the drums; on their first outing the quartet produced a noisy, unkempt style that aligned them with garage-minded revivalists such as the Oblivians and Red Planet. The EP's standout cut was their salacious tribute "Janet Weiss," written for Sleater-Kinney's drummer.
