Press Reviews
Buckra -- Fall of Porkopolis

With a fun sense of humor, a bulging rhythmic muscle and dynamic, melodic songs, Buckra emerged this year with Fall. Mixing the peanut butter of Funk, Punk and Swing with their energetic Rock & Roll chocolate, this crew -- formed from the ashes of The Rottweilers -- is quickly becoming a crowd favorite on the local club front.

BUCKRA
FALL OF PORKOPOLIS
SELF RELEASED CD
www.buckra.com

Buckra is an eclectic Midwestern quartet that jangles, stomps, moves and grooves. Their 12 track disc is a rock and roll rollercoaster ride, twisting and turning your ears into many genres. From the jazzy tinged "Trophy Song" to the Jane's Addiction flavored "Ransack", Buckra is a band that really can't be pigeonholed. Leaning on the pop side of the rock world, Buckra mixes in some ska and soul for flavoring ("Trailer Parks") and aren't afraid to knock you back a few generations with a ragtime guitar song ("Lawn Man"). Buckra isn't a band that will overpower you, but they will leave an impression for their clever song structures and usage of many different styles to create their own unique sound. Check them out if you like your rock left of center and multi-influenced.
