A little leaner. More "focused" perhaps. Keep in mind the two 12"s were unedited practice tapes, this is a studio record.

okay blues control on myspace makes me curiouser. religious knives on myspace does not. endless boogie only have one jam/song up and it doesn't make me very curious.

i would KILL for a status quo/savoy brown/foghat cover band where i live called endless boogie. i would go see them every week.
there is a cover band here called the boogies, but they just play lame disco covers. and they wear afro wigs.

Endless Boogie rule ... SMOKING FIGS!!! .. but somehow the new one let me down in comparison to the live show...
the live show seemed to totally evoke that kind of free-form canned heat ("refried boogie") expansiveness ... Trad Gras, sure, heard that too .. they just were SUCH a sympatico live band, what with ups and downs and so forth ... this album is GREAT, and I've been rocking it many Friday nights for weeks now, but still it doesn't hit me *as great* as the guys did live...

i am listening to The Fluid's 'Clear Black Paper' right now though, and i have to say it sounds better than Endless Boogie

Endless Boogie are fun live and pretty much the only good band that's played Jersey City (other than the big theater in Journal Square) since Uncle Joe's closed, so I like them for that. They're pretty boring on record though.
― Hurting 2, Saturday, 9 August 2008 15:37 (fifteen years ago) link
When I was living in Venice Beach, I had a fig tree in my yard. Beneath the tree sat the smoker I had built out of large terra cotta pots and a hotplate. The figs literally fell into the smoker and I took it as a sign. I took a bunch of ripe figs, cut them in half, placed them in a Pyrex dish cut side up, added a quarter-to-half inch of fruit juice (I used different juices on different occasions), and smoked them for a few hours . . . occasionally turning the figs in the ever-reducing juice . . . but always leaving them cut side up so they could more easily continue drying out . . . and then turning them cut side down for the last half-hour or so to soften the cut side a bit in the now-reduced-to-a-smokey-syrup juice. They were awesome with cured meats, on ice cream, and with just about anything else. Smoked candied figs! Shoot me an email if you want more info on how to build a kick-ass smoker for well under $100.

these guys... you're either picking up what they're putting down or you're not. I like the first 2 eps better than the new one. the less they try the better I like 'em, and of the vocals I am not a fan. but you know what thumbs up to them and their mission.
and whatever blues control alb has "always on time" is the one you need. scott or whoever.
― Edward III, Sunday, 10 August 2008 04:51 (fifteen years ago) link
yikes, at the beginning of Smokin Figs I was afraid I was gonna hate this record. agree that the vocals can be tough to take at times (almost Jon Spencer-ish?)
gets way better as it rolls along and they just zone the fuck out into some raga-rock

As New York 90s indie's official mascot/joke band, I kind of get a kick out of them. I have no idea why I would purchase their record though.

Never heard of these guys until Pitchfork reviewed Full House Head the other day. Listening to it now, and they are officially the first good band I've ever learned about from that site. The riff to "Empty Eye" is pure Junior Kimbrough awesomeness. What I like about these dudes is that unlike a lot of other contemporary heavy blooze-rawk boogie outfits (Amplified Heat, for example), they don't tip too far in the direction of stoner metal. They're definitely in the spirit of early '70s stuff, but unique. Like this a lot.

Endless Boogie’s Paul Major credits the band’s former bassist with inventing the credo “When you get there, you gotta stay there."
When they "get there" they are pretty fucking awesome, so no arguing with that credo.

I don't know if I'm getting old or if Endless Boogie is legit the best rock'n'roll band out there right now. Finally saw them live last fall and it was scorching.
Anyways, their 2 initial private press LPs are getting reissued via No Quarter: https://endlessboogie.bandcamp.com/album/vol-i-ii
Also, the tour-only CDR/download No Favors is worth it for the two 20-minute jams alone, and a particularly beefy "Taking Out The Trash": https://endlessboogie.bandcamp.com/album/no-favors
