    Artist description
    Forget the White Stripes and the Dirtbombs. Forget the Gories and the rest of this re-view of Detroit rock'n'roll and listen to this. The Flexibles were the seminal Detroit-area band of the 80's. Making their name through their guerrilla tactics both on and off stage. Burnt out after two years of pushing the envelop we can only dream of what this band may have come up with.
