Fuckbook Condo Fucks
Fuckbook OLE-853 2009-03-24
Legendary New London, CT trio the Condo Fucks returned to the stage last March after a long absence from the Tri-State Area's concert circuit.  A secretive Hoboken rehearsal was recorded and is being released March 24, 2009 by Matador as the LP/CD, Fuckbook.

Eschewing such Condo Fucks originals as ‘Fuckin’ Gary Sandy’ and ‘Let’s Get Rid Of New Haven’, the trio – Georgia Condo (drums), Kid Condo (guitar), and James McNew (bass) – instead tear through covers of The Small Faces, Richard Hell, Beach Boys, Electric Eels, Troggs, Flaming Groovies and Slade classics in the style that previously won them so much acclaim from the Nutmeg State’s music journalists and radio programmers all those years ago.

In the go-go 1990s, the Condo Fucks released 4 titles on the Matador label (see right), some of which were prominently advertised on the inner sleeve of Yo La Tengo’s I Can Hear The Heart Beating As One.  Sadly, these titles are long out of print and we are unable to provide the media with copies.

Customer Reviews

This is very peculiar... but GOOD peculiar -

Heard this in my local mom 'n' pop last week and had to pick it up upon day of release. I don't know who these people are, and I can't believe they get away with such a disgraceful name, but I sure like the tunes. "A Girl Like You" comes right out of the Troggs songbook (look 'em up, youngster!), you also get a brew of Beach Boys 'n' Slade style rockers, all condoed out and made to fit right in with our '09 culture. Ain't that peculiar?!
