PODRACER
Dundalk three-piece PodRacer started out in the autumn of 2005 and, after a couple of line-up changes, set out to be as noisy, trashy, punchy and irreverent as they possibly could be. Taking the post-punk sounds of the 80's, the subpop sounds of the 90's and different elements of rock, punk and metal, with lyrical subject matter as diverse as perscription drug addiction, religion, hoodies and serial killers, PodRacer create short, sharp shocks to the system, cutting out the ego-enhancing mtv-friendliness that so many current rock bands are weighed down with. They made their live debut in Dundalk's Spirit Store supporting Whipping Boy and have since shared the stage with, amongst others, Giveamanakick, Fighting With Wire and Lo Lite in Amsterdam. Their four-track E.P. “Armed With Hammers and a Handgun” was recorded in the Spirit Store and Tumbleweed Studios with Oran Burns at the production helm and was released to critical indifference June '07.
