The 757sHazardous---Not recommended for straight laced. Comedic stance. Bad disposition. Powerful. Able to withstand malt force. Sleek. Timeless and Stupid. The 757s. A group of veteran musicians brought together by circumstance and volume, The 757s are the standard-bearers for loud, Midwestern rock. Their careening live shows are legendary, drawing rave reviews from critics and fans. Their records are analog feasts of skillfully unpracticed fury and laughter; raucus celebrations of what is missing on a radio dial spin. Chris Riemenschneider of the Minneapolis Star Tribune says, "The Music--a bastardized blend of the Replacements' thunder-n-blunder, Guided by Voices' melodic rip and the Who's meaty and bouncy -- was dirty and damaging, and it was beautiful." "...and though the songs continued to grow on me with each repeated listen, the one thought running through my mind as I delved into the 757s was "man, I can't wait to see these guys live." -Andrea Myers, Reveille Magazine/City Pages "The levels are pushed into the red and left there to fend for themselves. It's honest, impudent and urgent. Not surprisingly, it's frequently sloppy and occasionally transcendent. It's an absolute blast. And it's over too soon." -Luftmensch, MOKB The 757s are Jimmy Peterson (Bellweather, The Missing Numbers), Seth Zimmerman (Tangletown), Steve Sutherland (Nova Mob) and Paul Pirner (Mosquito Ranch). Grab your earplugs, and join the fight to save rock and roll.
