The tumultuous final release from one of Boston's most loved Garage/Punk bands.

Originally released in 2003, The Shods final CD
“Tippy” is a splendid and telling rock and roll contradiction, illustrating the bands multiple personalities. There is the fun loving light hearted yet twisted humor of songs such as “Bobby’s Birthday Party” and “Go Go Dancing” and venomous anthemic power of the crushing “Give Me One
Person” and “Let Me Go Now”. However, there is a pall of true darkness lurking under almost every corner of “Tippy”. Songs like “A Drink to Forget”, “Black Cloud” and “The Devil Came To Town” are chilling and stark portents of the uncertain times the band was facing at the time
of the recording. The CD and the band appropriately close shop with a rousing version of Them’s “Here Comes The Night”, recorded a few years earlier during the demo sessions for “Thanks For Nuthin’”
