Videos: Red City Radio: "We are the Sons of Woody Guthrie"

Posted by bryne on Thursday, April 15, 2010 at 1:00 PM (EDT)

Today, we're excited to exclusively premiere the new video from Oklahoma City, OK outfit Red City Radio. "We are the Sons of Woody Guthrie" comes from the band's 2009 EP, To the Sons & Daughters of Woody Guthrie, which will finally be seeing a vinyl release this summer (more details are expected on that soon). The band will be supporting the release on an upcoming tour, including an appearance at Rad Fest.

I always imagined Paul to look more like a black censored with a question mark.

What a bunch of ugly bastards. They're lucky they can play or they'd never amount to nothing.

I would put this as a prediction as an up and coming reader favorite though...Who knows.

There's a penis joke in there, but I'm going to take the moral high road. Good day to you Mr. Pendley.

I love when Dante goes out on a limb and "discovers" bands.

Dante3000 (rich) (April 15, 2010)

I've forgotten more bands than you've ever heard of. Half of those bands that I've forgotten are better than everything you listen to. The other half now work at Arby's and are making a better Roast Beef Sandwich than you can. Basically, you make a shitty sandwich.

This band is ok. I've heard some unsettling things about that Paul character, though.

in addition to my filled cup, i must also add that in addition to this being such an incredible song that causes me to have impromptu dance parties wherever i am when it comes on, this video is fucking awesome. its perfect.

A comprehensive list of every band using this formula on my desk by 4pm, please. I have to have heard of them too or it doesn't count.

Peking_Spring_Rolls (April 15, 2010)

Just from a simple search of the word "city" in the punknews band archive. Trust me this is only scratching the surface, smartass.

River City Rebels
Angel City Outcasts
River City Tanlines
Murder City Devils
Motion City Soundtrack
Lost City Angels
Desert City Soundtrack
Radio City Riot
Rock City Morgue
River City High

Once again a post with actual information is responded to in this manner. Well done Punknews community.

party-animal (April 15, 2010)

Do you really want to try to have a logical discussion of your statement? I don't like band names that start with "The" or when band members use the band name as their last name or when message board users use ironically irrelevant phrasing in an attempt at a witty user name.

State an opinion as in "I don't like when bands use...." Otherwise, I'm not sure what kind of response you're expecting.

dev (April 15, 2010)

Wow there's more than I thought, I guess. But in all honesty, I've heard of three of those bands.

robalobadob (April 16, 2010)

You've really never heard of Motion City Soundtrack? Or Murder City Devils?

dev (April 16, 2010)

Yes actually, those two and River City Rebels make up the three I'm referring to. The rest don't count.

robalobadob (April 20, 2010)

Ah, gotcha.

I like Paul's move to release this video on the same day The Flaming Lips release theirs.

Trying to upsurp their title as the OKC band by stealing their thunder.
