Hubcap City
Superlocalhellfreakride

Bill Taft and Will Fratesi

are luminaries of Atlanta’s indie rock avant-garde — Taft’s legacy as a key player in Smoke and

Fratesi’s tenure as the rickety percussionist behind such lonely and urbane Southern specters as Cat Power and Tenement
Halls
culminates in Hubcap City with slow, serpentine miasma. Superlocalhellfreakride is a guided tour through Atlanta’s
underbelly; a survey of the acoustics found in its burned-out buildings, graveyards and long-abandoned mills. The humid
ghosts of Hubcap City’s ancestors, including Smoke, the Jody Grind and Atlanta’s seminal Destroy All Music Festivals in the
1980s all echo in these folkish dirges of melody and noise. With each lazy and uplifting honk of the horn over a clatter of strings
and metal the group pushes the old weird Atlanta into deeper and higher levels of beautiful imprisonment, and the only way out
is through.

“...Hubcap City plays a kind of loner-volk-whatsis with edges that recall mock trumpet-era Michael Hurley and

some of Kweskins’ rare slow tracks. It’s the type of sound that makes you think about sneaking onto a freight
train, but there’s a definite weirdo overlay as well. They certainly seem as though they have tuned themselves
to some of the universe’s looser strings, and it sounds great.”

— Byron Coley, THE WIRE

“Pretty far removed from all things modern, and better off for it, these hole-in-shoe lapses in time compel

with the natural momentum and lost-era charms they carry.”

— DUSTED
