5.0 out of 5 stars Makes a great gift..., August 2, 2006

Recently I saw the famous cello-rock band Rasputina play at Gabe's in Iowa City, Iowa. I thought I was going to have to go to the show alone, because of all my friends nobody really likes Raspy enought to pay for the ticket. However, my boyfriend Josh decided to suck it up and go with me so I wouldn't have to be alone. He was determined that he was going to have a bad time, and that I would "owe him" for making him come to the show so I wouldn't be bored waiting for the bands to start.

Things couldn't have been more different. Hillstomp opened for Rasputina, and they stole the show. Josh and I were both really surprised. Their music is AWESOME. I have two words for you, and they are WASHERBOARD and SPOONS. Put them together, and you've got reason to love Hillstomp. They sound really vintage and have a lot of personality. By the second song, everyone in the crowd, even the disaffected hipsters, were stamping and clapping along.

For Josh's birthday, I bought him THE WOMAN THAT ENDED THE WORLD. We both listened to it and agreed that it's a great record that captures Hillstomp's lively flesh-and-blood performing. I would recommend it to anyone who likes blues, bluegrass, or likes a good vintage sound.

Absolute perfection....unique in their niche in the NW blues community, Hillstomp's punk/blues influence will appeal to a broad base of fans. Keep an eye on these guys as they are a largely (as of now) undiscovered talent....better yet, go see them live...Weber BBQs and pickle buckets for percussion? Oh yeah....
