On Tuesday night I went to the Bovine Sex Club to see Louis Durand's last show as the frontman for Maximum RNR. The whole MRNR posse are friends with CHARTattack so it was a little bit bittersweet to witness. And a little disturbing, especially when guitarist Keith Carman gave Louis a full open-mouth goodbye kiss on stage. Pockets of Louis'...

Maximum RNR's Pee-Filled Tour Diary

in
By Keith Carman (CHARTattack) November 28, 2008 4:35 pm
Some things never change... namely Maximum RNR. It's funny. Fellow guitarist Keith Mauronik and I were discussing how the Maximum RNR image is stale. No, not our hirsute aesthetic and dingy clothing. We don't care about that. We were bummed about the common impression that we do nothing but micturate like dogs and leave a trail of senseless...

The Spades Are The Voice Of Rock 'N' Roll Reason

in
By Jared Story (CHARTattack) October 16, 2006 6:30 pm
Rock 'n' roll has heavy shoulders. It's always taking the blame for felonious teenage activities, so it's about damn time that this scapegoat music genre is noticed for its redeeming qualities. For five young Dutch miscreants, rock 'n' roll was the ticket to becoming upstanding (well, at least decent) citizens. "It started out as being a...
