We’ve been telling you about these boys for months. The blogsters are loving their unique vocal harmonies, post-punk construction and garage-punk skronk. Following the digital release a few weeks back, ROIR is proud to release the debut CD album from Philadelphia’s Univox!
Download a free MP3 of the track “Pi” here.
Univox are playing two shows in Philly this month:
May 27 @ The Barbary, Philadelphia, PA with Fang Island

We are happy to announce the release of 10 Ft. Ganja Plant’s new album, 10 Deadly Shots Vol 1… available today exclusively through their new website, 10ftganjaplant.com!
10 Deadly shots cut from Vinyl!
Its a cold weekend in February and the Cessna’s land. The vibes brew as the room fills, while the bass thumps a beat and the snare drum rings a tune. The chords echo through the room as the smell of analog tape enters the air… A familiar start to a 10 ft Ganja Plant recording session.
Digital album only $6.99 until 4/27/2010 (reg. $8.99)
Purchase it here or stream it here
Get a free MP3 of the song, “Bonny & Clyde” if you sign up for their mailing list on their website!

Directed by Univox’s own Josh Jones:
“The concept for the Pi video came to me the same way my songs normally do: IN A VISION FROM GOD! So I wrote down the vision as a video treatment, and then, after reading it, God sent me an estimate for how much it should cost: $110.”
The video is dedicated to the late music British journalist Steven Wells, who while writing for the Philadelphia Weekly challenged the band to make a video.
>> Dig the music? You can download the track “Pi” for free here.
Univox are also going to be on the radio this afternoon doing a live set & interview on WZMB 91.3FM in Greenville, NC. Tune in at 4pm!
