Noise Noise Noise
Buck Kuts
PPR 32 Limited to 200 copies
2011
The last Noise Noise Noise album is a home recorded garage, pop punk record with killer hooks, great vocals and awesome songs. This is their first record since 2006's Blazing Hot Title Track and it was well worth the wait.
Here is w hat Razorcake had to say:
The tunes have moved a wee bit more down the Ramones end of the street since last we met—though that might also be a result of the better sound here, which is less “garage” than the last—but they have enough sense to avoid the pop punk clone trappings by keeping the songs a bit more creative in construction, dropping in other influences, and even being so bold as to drop in a full on “rock” tune now and again. Another solid outing from these cats.
–Jimmy Alvarado
Here's What the Missoula Independent had to say:
Noise Noise Noise is going to break my heart by breaking up. The last record (or so they say, but I don't want to believe it) from the Billings garage, pop-punk group is an ironclad collection of songs for people who like the Ramones, Murder City Devils and maybe Wolf Mother. Not that Noise Noise Noise sounds like these bands, but they do embrace a certain amount of whoa-whoa! pop-punk, woven in with desperate-sounding gang vocals belted out like warrior battle cries.
"You're Good, You're Great" and "It's Only Getting Worse" are deliciously hyperactive nuggets that clock in at less than a minute each. "Cover Your Eyes" feels like the Beach Boys coked up (oh, wait...) and "Trick Doves" is epic with its galloping riffs and menacing bassline. I don't know what happens exactly in that last song, but I'm pretty sure the band manages to slay some dragons and uncover buried treasure.
Ironically, "Accidental Camouflage" has a slow-paced flatness that makes it disappear within the context of much more exciting tracks. That's okay, because that song alone is eons better than the mountains of bloodless music I get in my inbox marked "indie rock."
Goodbye, Noise Noise Noise. I hope you get reincarnated soon.

Originally released in 2006 "In all it's innumerable names" is back in digital format. Recorded by Spencer Moody, this represents 1985 as a keyboard/guitar/drums three piece. When Matt played this album for me in 06 I was not happy that his vocals had been pushed under by the "experimental" recording of Moody, but now years later with headphones on I have found a new love for this album and actually think it's perfect. Some of these songs would be recorded later but the ones exclusive to this release represent 1985 fantastic ability to craft warm beautiful songs and gripping concepts. This album is avialalble for free, but you may donate via paypal if you wish.

Thought it would be a good teaser for the anthology coming out. Lots of covers and early versions of songs on this recording.
Poor School

Poor School plays banging improv, punk, noise jazz. This tape release delivers a lo-fi, bombastic live set from the now defunct Raven Cafe in Missoula, MT. This show Poor School shared the bill with usaisamonster. The band was however coaxed into closing the night for fear their banging drums, wailing sax, and distorted guitar would scare away the crowd. This tape can be a 24 Minute Cassingle since it has only one song on it. However the B-side will take you to an unfamiliar memory from the A-Side. Hand Painted and limited to 100 tapes, this is one noisy treat.

6 song Cassette EP recorded in my kitchen on Front Street. Stripped down compared to Fruit Trees. Tapes come with FREE digital download and 7 bonus songs.
Review:
There’s something a little bit Billy Joe Armstrong about Tyson Ballew’s vocals—the way he sings about crushes made me recently unearth Green Day’s 1,039/ Smoothed Out Slappy Hours just to hear “The One I Want.” That said, the local troubadour injects his own dramatic notions of love into his newest album, and darkens them with an end-of-the-world earnestness.
In “The Hatchet,” he sings, “There’s unforeseen dangers in everything and we’d be lucky if we fell in love with anybody.” He counterbalances that in “Honest Friends” when he unabashedl
These kinds of songs evoke the excitement of first crushes and loitering on the sidewalk outside of all-ages rock shows, or hanging out with friends in parks at midnight. The fact that the album is on tape makes it all the more nostalgic, and the little details—clapping effects sharp as shotguns, poppy vocal layering—gives it brightness despite bleak undertones.
In fact, Ballew might be the perfect acoustic guitarist to hang out with during the apocalypse, mostly because his angst is cradled in starry-eyed acceptance for whatever excitement—good or bad—happens next. (Erika Fredrickson)

Hail Santa! is an idea hatched by Trevor Martin the Christmas of 2003, It was supposed to be a metal band doing christmas classics and originals, it has taken until 2007 for Hail Santa! to produce anything, these recordings are not metal, they are mostly improv/noise/folk. Sorry, maybe next year we will be metal and play a show....this was a cathartic exercise in playing music after a creative hiatus and also an exercise to seize Christmas, whatever that means....

Fruit Trees for Cassowaries
ppr 24 1st pressing: 50 CDR's, MASA 100 CASS
February 09
$5 (postage paid)
Tyson Ballew created two albums under the moniker Old Shoes, but Fruit Trees for Cassowaries—released under his name—has all the attributes a first solo album should have: passionate music, unashamedly autobiographical lyrics and room to grow.
Instrumental flourishes, including synthesized xylophones, accordions, and a toy piano, all lend a fresh, optimistic tone to the effort. The upbeat attitude is mirrored in Ballew’s earnest lyrics, which, despite some bleak moments, are mostly honest and hopeful. “Things Are Different Now” contains the line “I still believe in the songs we’d sing…There’s still time, we can change this world. At least we can change ourselves.” And with a voice reminiscent of both Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong and the Fruit Bat’s Eric Johnson, Ballew admits the ironic truth that “Everyone inspires me except for maybe those rock stars, ’cause they are selling sadness and apathy.” This indictment of the modern music machine fits perfectly with songs advocating for small-town punk teens in “Electric City Hardcore” and lonely lovers in “Bumble Bee.”
Ballew exudes hopeless romanticism, an endearing quality that will hopefully continue to flavor his future music.

lift ev'ry voice and sing
PPR 19 / 1st Pressing: 50 cdr
March 2007
Out of Print (coming soon on the Old Shoes Anthology)
In Lift Ev'ry Voice and Sing local musician Tyson Ballew, aka Old Shoes, belts out acoustic pop-punk ditties like the fate of the world depends on it. He strums exuberantly, fingerpicks odd tempos and yell-sings in wavering keys. He's as restless as a riot grrl and earnest as a poet. But if that all sounds a bit annoying, rest assured, it's not. Ballew has an incredible ability to be endearingly off-kilter. His strong opinions are softened by a capacity for forgiveness, and he's just wry enough to keep the positive tone from getting too candied. Sometimes he's political, like in "FTH v. MFD" where he sings:
"you can't take out those big guys, but you can still save your communities/'Cause there's a lot of small-town assholes...gonna be wishin' they hadn't messed with me."
Mostly, though, this album is about how much Ballew values his friendships. There's a song addressed to Milo and Stella (the young children of local husband and wife duo, Two Year Touqe) promising them a great future."From Cynthia's Belly and Into Infamy" invokes old music buddies from now-defunct music joint, Jay's Upstairs. Each song is an intimate story, deftly distilled and executed with great care. - by Erika Fredrickson

This is Noise Noise Noise's first full length. Recorded by J Waylon Porcupine(The Reddmen) This is what MRR has to say about it: Wow. What a surprise. Never heard of these folks and they fuckin' smoke. Over-cranked distorto garage pop punk. Sounding like the bastard child of SCARED OF CHAKA, FYP, and even the MARKED MEN. The songs are all over the yard, from 40-second blazers to anthemic pop numbers. It's rough and scrappy with hooks galore...and I'm sure a blast live. Every song on this little gem is a keeper and like most bands from the arse end of nowhere (Montana) they have tons of personality and originality. Class. (Tim Brooks)

This was the first of Tummy Rock's supposed comp series, that ended shortly because of how difficult comps are to assmble. This is an ode to some of my favorite bands that were ever considered "bands from Montana" Some of these bands played as many as 5 shows, some of them put out many great records for years or are still putting out great work. It's all honest and lo-fi. Best mixtape I've ever made.

The Monsters were one of the most fun experiences I ever had in my whole life. It was the first time I felt like my friends and I were unstoppable. They wrote fun, dancy, zombie pop punk songs. There are even political and ska songs. The Monsters were really fantastic.I recently remastered their original album. This was also the first band I ever recorded. I had no idea what I was doing.

The sophmore effort to Save Cynicism, You Can't Run Away From Yourself EP was the first old shoes album to really have decent songwriting. Classic old shoes songs Pity Party, and Custard Banana's are the highlights, while unfourtunetly negative/mean songs like Nate Dogg are also on this CD. This was all four tracked in about 4 days. This was my first effort of really recording my solo songs. Jared Sayre played drums. Peter Dolan played organ and drew the cover.

The last Raincoat Mafia album. Solitary Seagull was tape recorded so we had new stuff to sell on our first tour. We thought we would sell alot of tapes on Suckfest. We were wrong. We made maybe 20. We sold like 2 and I gave the rest away. This was when we decided we should try to be really artsy instead of offensive and screamy. Some might think this was good, others maybe not so much.

This is a cassette release in the style of my early demo tapes. Tape recorded live. Some really early versions of songs, and alot of songs I never recorded or played live again. Peter Dolan Plays piano on a song, and I think thats all the guests. The B-Side is a live show during my first winter break after college. A really long fucked up set now that I think about it. Still really emotional on this tape. Each tape came with it's own special artwork and quote.

Experimental/abrassive/offensive noise and anti-songs from really angry teenage boys. Some of this I think is still really brilliant. Some of it I am embarressed about. All together it was fun and destructive. The A side of this album is 12 lo-fi tracks recorded with a playschool talk n play, followed by a bootleg of a show. The B-side is our second album. It was called The Hurting Someones Feelings Game.

This is an EP which if I had known what I was doing could have been a full lentgh but that doesn't matter cause this CD sucks. It's all about breaking up with someone. It's lame and terrible. This CD was recorded in a studio and really should have been home recorded but I didn't know at that point how to get my music on a CD. There are 3 outtakes from the studio session. They are awful, but could have been put on and made the cd a 10 track piece of crap.

OUT OF PRINT(download coming soon)
Spencer and I made up a song called Soccermatch. There are over 10 versions of it. All of them were available(with exception to the Last Soccermatch Jazz Oddessy) on this cassatte release. Spencer put together all of all the recordings from all the tapes with great hand drawn art and liner notes. The tape also featured Saftey Tips from The Get Along Gang. It was always a crowd favorite when we played it at shows. I love this tape. This was on Spencer's tape label Little Robot Records, it was release number 0. The b-side of the tape had the ep worth of material that Battery Operated Boyfriend recorded. I hope to have all the mp3's available soon.

Starting a record label is easy. Buy a tape recorder, record shit. Then dub it with tape decks and write stuff on the tapes. Easy. In highschool I recorded 8 sad demos that will never see the light of day. But aside from those I also recorded live shows that my bands and my friends bands would play. The label used to be called Poser Punk Records and live shows were promoted as Poser Punk Productions. This tape was not the first thing I handed out to people and said was on my label but it was the first real conceptualized release. All the bands on it were bands I was in. And none of the recordings were ever on albums that were released. Live AdHd, Raincoat Mafia, old shoes, and my friends band Battery Operated Boyfriend who I don't think I asked if I could put them on the tape. I love that band. During this time punk rock and the songs my friends wrote were all I cared about. It took me years to understand what we were really doing. We were beautiful even if our songs weren't. I even foolishly gave Calvin Johnson this tape at a show in Missoula when I saw him. He never wrote. God I was so young.....
