"TV Sucks"
Wolverine Records

Wolverine Records has released one of the most unique compilations of all time. "TV Sucks" features bands from the punk and ska scenes covering well known TV series theme songs from 40 years of television history. What you'll find is a wild mix from 60's classics ("Raumpatrouille Orion," "Baretta," "Marsh," "Miss Marple") to American mega-hits ("Magnum P.I.," "The Last Unknown Stuntmen," "Detective Rockford") to actual radio hits ("Beverly Hills 90210," "Cheers," "Friends") and cartoons ("Spiderman," "The Flintstones," "Duck Tales"). The 24 songs are performed in snotty, cool punk rock or swingin' ska style by bands like No Use For A Name, The Butlers, Swoons, Skin Of Tears, Two Pointeight, Big Wig, Bluekilla, Blascore, Feverdream, Ex-Maquina, Frohlix, Benuts, Die Strafe, Fluchtweg and Bradleys. This compilation is the best party CD for all time. Wolverine Records had great success with another compilation series, "Punk Chartbusters," featuring punk bands covering hit songs.

The unbelievable story of the Chartbusterscompilation continues...this time, instead of punk bands, you find the creme de la creme of the booming ska and ska-punk scene. On 25 tracks, you'll find acts like: The Busters, Spitfire, Los Placebos, Frau Doktor, The Hippos, Benuts, Skin Of Tears, Suspects, Swoons, Gangster Fun, Schwarz Auf Weiss, Blascore, Thumper, Greenhouse and many more. Again, these bands are covering a diverse collection of hits, such as songs from Abba, Metallica, Europe, Frank Sinatra, Queen and Zappa. No doubt about it, Chartbusters will become a classic.
