about

Chico, California’s late ‘90s indie rock tornado, Deathstar, initially formed following guitarist Kelly Bauman’s departure from Harvester (Geffen, 1996), drummer Jim Rizutto leaving Pitchfork Tuning (Cleansio!, 1994) and joining up with bassist Ken Lovgren.

Following their shows during the, now infamous, Superwinners Summer Rock Academy festival in Chico, California between August 17-20, 1995, audiences went wild throughout their initial West Coast tours supporting their ‘Strikes The Earth’ EP (St. Francis, 1996).

Silver Girl followed it up (in January, 1997) with this earnest lo-fidelity recording of the six best songs the trio wrote during their short tenure together. The energy showcased here met sweaty, ecstatic audiences right where they wanted it – loud, frenetic and catchy.

Alongside their local peers, including The Idiot, Land of the Wee Beasties, Mid-Fi and Vomit Launch, Deathstar produced an roaring, raw sound and captivating live show.
