Philly’s Residuels aren’t ashamed to play big, dumb rock n’ roll. They’ve got a stripped-down, 70’s punk vibe but whip out extended improvisations without coming off like assholes… think MC5 without the speeches or the afros. In virtually no time this “power-trio” has played all over the continent with bands like BUZZCOCKS, THEE OH SEES, BLACK LIPS, THE SONICS, DESTRUCTION UNIT + THE SPITS and made IGGY POP a fan with their cover of STOOGES’ “I Got A Right”
“I first met Justin Pittney (Residuels’ singer / guitarist) working on the Stooges music for a Sailor Jerry spot. I noticed he had a great feel for our music… He sent me I Got A Right by The Residuels the other day and I thought it had a really good spirit. Hey Residuels thanks for the cover.” – IGGY POP
