New Additions: Estee Louder 7" single

On occasion, I get to talk about bands I actually saw play live, and Estee Louder is one of them. They were something of a supergroup, bringing in members of The Velveteens, Monster Zero, Templeton, Mudflap Girls From Venus and other 90s Columbus bands to back lead singer Ray Ray with a loud, bruising rawk assault. Their debut EP released on Burnt Herd in 2001 encapsulates the sound, though their 2004 album Ohio's Best is worth picking up as well.
