Speedloader

Hailing from Brooklyn, NY and Austin, TX, Speedloader quickly made its way into the rock scene in early 2001. The band immediately released an EP on Brooklyn-based indie label Handi-Kraft Records, whose roster includes JJ Paradise Players Club & The Candy Darlings. From there, Speedloader unleashed its heavy-noise rock act all over New York City.

In March of 2002, the band was featured on the infamous "Escape From New York Tour" with rock veterans JJ Paradise Players Club & The Brought Low which took the band all over the Midwest, and East Coast and in Austin, TX, during SXSW.

After moving the band to Austin in late 2002 and releasing a split 7" with purveyors of mayhem, The Bulemics, it became apparent that they were going to make things happen regardless of location, performing in and around Texas with the likes of Honky, Dixie Witch, ATP, Keelhaul, and many others.

Steady Hookin' marks the bands latest full-length effort and shows the brute force this band has become famous for. They slay you with riffs that tear and remind you of something being brutally destroyed and the CD has been getting rave reviews all over the country.

Hitting the Midwest and East Coast proved to garner the band more support from heavy music fans around the county, and while on tour, the band managed to record four new tracks at Studio G in Brooklyn with Tony Maimone (Pere Ubu) and Joel Hamilton (Shiner/Players Club) producing and engineering, which will be featured on a split CD EP with the Players Club on Arclight Records. Look for a new full-length CD soon.
