Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope you're enjoying all kinds of delicious casseroles, dishes, desserts, and drinks with friends and family and not working and debating on what nearby delivery place to order thanksgiving dinner on!(kill me, please kill me.)
Here at the Dingle Homefront we're starting digital reissues of older-ish releases. This means a heap of bands from the heydays and generally unreleased or unavailable material not found out of the confides of self-duplicated sharpie-penned CD-Rs. These are all just free downloads because all of the bands are broken up/inactive/dead, and done to show what you had missed OR what you didn't know about OR too busy playing bad high school music to realize something cool(ego puff).
Anywhoo, Starting things off is Pleasant Rest Valley by Millstadt's own rural gloom family band Stiff Kittens. You can listen to it right here!
Based out of the small farmtown of Millstadt, IL, four cousins formed the band in 2006 with a odd blend of powerpop, garage, pop, and gloomy vibes and went on till the spring of 2009. Check out their second album and with it all the discomfort of a chilly winter in the early new year, snow covering the road and knowing you can't hit the breaks without going into a uncontrolled spin and crash and the sound of windshield wipers grinded down to the rubber frame, making a screeching dragging sound as you attempt to clear the snow out of your point of view.
