An incomplete history of chicago punk rock (vol. 13) -

It's been awhile since the last one of these, so are you ready for some more Chicago punk rock? Good. I'll preface this one (however) by saying that this will quite possibly be the shortest write up of the whole series, but still certainly worth your time. This is good stuff!

The Feds were an extremely short-lived band that released (correct me if I am wrong) two 7" singles and one full-length record over the course of 1996 and 1997. They played snotty melodic Chicago-style punk rock in the same vein as Raygun, The Bollweevils, and 88 Fingers Louie. The band was comprised of Ken Weevil (ex-Bollweevils), Mark Piss (ex-Montgomery Burns), and some drummer named Louie. What else can I say? The Feds didn't leave much behind except some great music. Heck, I couldn't even find a picture to post. Listen up.

Speaking of Chicago punk rock, have you heard of this or this? Seriously. It's like I've been sucked into a time warp.
