  The Bad Rackets - Couple Million Miles
Download   |   Stream

The Bad Rackets are a band from Austin, TX. Formed in October of 2004, they've been gigging steadily around Texas at clubs in Austin, Houston and San Antonio among others. Their sound is cheap beer sizzling on hot vacuum tubes; melodies written at the altar of The Ramones and The Buzzcocks, guitar echoes of Cheetah Chrome and Johnny Thunders, and a rhythm section that could've belonged to The Damned or The Saints.

They released their debut CD, Full-On Blown Apart on Mortville Records during SXSW 2006. They're currently working on new material with an eye towards releasing a new record sometime next year.
