(PR) Philadelphia's CLOCKCLEANER Announce U.S. Tour w/ Times New Viking - SXSW Appearance - Fall Album on Load! Introducing your new favorite punk rock band kiddies. Philadelphia's CLOCKCLEANER, who are, "basically not allowed to play in Philly," perform 70's inspired sci-fi punk not-unlike skull pummeling artists
No Trend or Bauhaus.Led by ex-Nine Shocks Terror member John Sharkey on guitar and vocals (who, after a bad car wreck had amnesia throughout the recording of their last record, "Nevermind"), Karen Horner (formerly of the band Green Apple Quickstep) on bass, who proclaims "Philadelphia is made of pussies," and drummer Richie Penetrator who, prior to the band, modeled footwear for Fila and various department stores to get a paycheck, CLOCKCLEANER'S live show is something like being awake during a Nightmare on Elm Street dream while simultaniously[sic] experiencing epileptic seizures as those blade-ridden gloves find themselves in various orafices [sic] (see also Birthday Party).
CLOCKCLEANER'S albums are something of collectors items, and on Tuesday, the band will release their second single, "Frogrammer," followed by the band's second full length "Babylon Rules" this September on *Load Records*. Featuring the song "Vomiting Mirrors" which is currently streaming on the band's Myspace page
{http://myspace.com/clockcleaner}, the album is a dark and twisted look into the human psyche.
