To start with are six songs from The Unsatisfied’s 1999 debut full length CD
“Real Gone Paleface”   You can listen to these songs here But if You want your own copy of the CD’s contact the band through  www.Myspace.com/TheUnsatisfied  or get a copy at one of their shows.

Next are a couple of songs from The Unsatisfied’s classic “Seven Inch Rock Scar”  After listening to this incredible rock album dozens of times straight through I tried selecting a few songs for this podcast/special and it was very difficult not to select them all.  I have decided to limit this selection to two songs because of the rock opera nature of “Seven Inch Rock Scar,” which was named in honour of an onstage performance accident in which Singer and front Man Eric Scealf snapped his Achilles tendon while  opening up for “The Misfits,” and still finished out the set propped up by members of both bands.  The “rolling straight through to armageddon” nature of this CD works best  by listening to the whole album straight through.  There is some hard to grapple with material in the album.  One particularly misunderstood song “Ocultist” brings shivers to the spine and all songs severely bash the senses with that rock anaesthesia that we have all been looking for from time to time.  You absolutely MUST obtain a copy of “Seven Inch Rock Scar” from the band.  It is one of the most complete, unified and powerful  works of punk rock artistry to come out of the entire movement.

So Crank up your speakers really loud and enjoy some real uncompromising rock!

           Having been known as underground icons in the punk and gothic scenes for many years, the Unsatisfied began to enjoy wide U.S. and European distribution with their third full-length album, “The Way To The Crumbs” on Antidote Records, which was released November 2006. The Unsatisfied are one of those genuine rarities of raw rock and roll, live band energy, precision, and dangerous punk rock.  “Once you’ve seen them live you’ll know why any musician can appreciate and respect what they represent— an amalgam of Iggy Pop, the Rolling Stones, Prince, and the Cramps. It’s rock and roll and they like it.” – C. Braly, The Chattanooga Pulse.   Strange, twisted, yet intelligent songs. And Eric Scealf. the leader, is almost over the top weird when on stage.  Get a taste of what the band is capable of, and it makes your hair stand on end.  No audience ever forgets a show by The Unsatisfied. Be prepared for loud, high energy rock ‘n roll ecstasy.

Does Ana Lola Roman’s music have the primal energy and solid beats to move an audience to gyrating mindlessly that needs to accompany any intellectual pursuit of a musical art form?  Yes it does.  Is it danceable? Yes.  Is it a dance band?  No it is not.   Does it Rock?  Sometimes.  Is it ethereal and psychedelic?  Yes but not in any kind of pre-experienced fashion.  Is it fun? Yeah it’s loads of fun and the recordings, (sometimes compared to Kate Bush and Public Image Limited..) threaten an even more remarkably weird experience live, which is why listening to Ana Lola Roman’s songs for nearly two years has brought us to putting together this series of concerts so that some of us can experience the “movement” for ourselves, firsthand and with a total element of surprise inherently built in.
