about

"If you'd asked me in, say 2000, who my favorite band was, I'd have said the Realistics. My friend Niki and I would go down to the Khyber Pass in downtown Philly when we were in college to see them and other now unknown rock stars of the era. You could say it's sad that they never really broke through, but rock and roll is supposed to be ephemeral. I just feel so crazy lucky to have gotten to witness them in all their glory."
–Lizzy Goodman (author of "Meet Me in the Bathroom", quote published in 2017)

"I grew up with this band.. LITERALLY! Glad to hear they're back in full force. You should buy/stream/support their music both old and new because it's not like you are doing anything else besides posting stupid shit on FB during this quarantine. Enough with the bread and album cover challenges, already! Best of luck to Will, Dennis, Mike, and Dave. I hope a good label scoops them up (providing that label hasn't gone out of business already!)" –Asif Ahmed (founder of'Shmanagemant!', manager of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, now retired)
