In the spirit of Little Miss Monkeyshines' esteemed "New Release Thursday," I've decided to share a little musical discovery of my own. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Super Black Market.

SBM is a local bad who is up for Kansas City Punk Band of the Year. Their music is a bit prickly so if you decided to take nibble, you might want to do so a little later in the day -- it's a bit jarring for first thing in the morning. As is the case with many KC bands (of all genres), they are doing things just a little differently.

One other point of interest: the cover art was designed by a friend, and former colleague, of mine. Nicely done Cobra Dragon.
