Ted Leo & The Pharmacists “Bomb.Repeat.Bomb. (1954)” (link to mp3)
What can I say about Ted Leo, and his rotating team of Pharmacists that hasn’t already been said? They’re my favorite band, and they could very well be yours, too. Great songwriting, great music, great everything.
How about a walk down memory lane, huh? After playing with bands such as Chisel, Citizens Arrest, Hell No, Animal Crackers and Puzzlehead, Ted Leo went out on his own, and released a solo album. In 2000, he brought in a full band and released several albums & EPs throughout the decade. The current lineup includes James Canty on guitar, Marty “Violence” Key on bass, and Chris Wilson on drums.
Here’s their most popular song, “Me & Mia”, from 2004’s Shake the Sheets:
