The real benefit to my radio show at WTUL right now is that I can plow through the 7"s and find great garage acts that I wouldn't have heard otherwise. One of the better finds so far was the Chrome Cranks. I might be showing my age here, maybe they were actually pretty big in their day, but I've been listening to this song an awful lot for the past few days.

There's a pretty clear noise influence in there and it's a lot more harsh than what I would normally call Rock & Roll, but the attitude is definitely there. Sure, they're not the only band to do this brand of Rock & Roll; Jon Spencer's done this in all sorts of ways for instance.
Two great bands that do a similar thing, though perhaps less stricly within the realm of rock & roll.
