***Scrappy, melodic garagepunk from Las Cruces, NM, featuring members of THE MARKED MEN and SHANG-A-LANG. In late 2011, when it was clear that Shang-A-Lang was coming to an end, CHRIS asked SAM and CADE (of TOTAL JOCK) if they wanted to start a new band. LOW CULTURE practiced a few times as a three-piece, but a few weeks later JOE (Marked Men/Shang-A-Lang) moved back to Las Cruces and joined the band. Low Culture’s first show was in early November 2011 was at Shang-A-Lang’s last show and the band's been moving full steam ahead ever since. With a few short regional trips and a tour of the Northeast and Canada with Iron Chic in support of their debut 7" under their belt, they're showing no signs of slowing down. A European tour is in the works for March of 2013 as well as many US dates as their work schedules will allow. Low Culture plays catchy garage punk that while not far removed from some of the members' previous projects, Shang-A-Lang, has a lot less emphasis on riffs and blown out recordings, and more emphasis on melody and crisp (while not necessarily “over-produced”) recordings. Produced by MARK RYAN (Marked Men/Mind Spiders) in Fort Worth, mastered by DAVE WILLIAMS (Crusades, Steve Adamyk Band) in Ottawa. This is their debut LP, with the promise of more to come.
