About The Knights of Fuzz:
The ongoing Knights of Fuzz history project began as a 1990 book titled "Echoes In Time." This first modern garage-psych history book, written by award-winning author Timothy Gassen, quickly sold out, and today is a much sought-after rarity. It was doubled in size, with color sections and a large coffe-table format, for its re-named 1995 Knights of Fuzz release. That book is regarded as the "encyclopedic bible" reference source for the garage and psychedelic music revival of the 1980s and 1990s, and has garnered universal praise from across the globe.

AND NOW THE KNIGHTS OF FUZZ is a video DVD, complete with the book as an electronic bonus!

The main portion of the Knights of Fuzz DVD is a newly produced documentary on the neo-garage scene, plus 20 newly -restored music videos from the best bands of the era. (See the band and video track listing at left.) Bonus video clips and radio show interviews complete the feature-packed video portion of the DVD.

The entire contents of the previous book, along with new photo sections, a 26-song audio compilation, fanzine reproductions and hundreds of new feature articles have been added to the disc as bonus DVD-ROM content. Simply place the disc in your DVD-ROM computer drive and view the book in your Web browser! (This bonus content is also available as a separate CD-ROM; see the ordering page.)

The book features thousands of international garage and psychedelic band histories, extensive CD and vinyl discographies, hundreds of interviews, and hundreds of rare photos and album cover reproductions. Chapters focus on international fanzines, garage music video, compilation albums, plus a detailed analysis of the worldwide modern garage and psychedelic scene.

So don't be fooled by mainstream media that misuses the terms "garage and psych" to describe their generic corporate product. Their attempts to re-write history will not stand the test of time — “The Knights of Fuzz” exists to tell the actual story of the garage & psychedelic underground and the bands that make it an international phenomenon!

The original version of The Knights of Fuzz is completely out of print, and will never again be published in paper form. So — We're proud to present the the updated and multi-media Knights of Fuzz DVD!

Did you know that Jon Weiss & Little Steven joined forces with author Timothy Gassen for the previous "Knights of Fuzz" CD-ROM release concert in NYC?

In October 2001 an all-star lineup celebrated the release of the Knights of Fuzz CD in New York City: THE FUZZTONES, PLASTICLAND, GRUESOMES, and CHEEPSKATES were on the dream bill, along with SEAN BONNIWELL and RON EDGAR of the MUSIC MACHINE! ______________________________________________________________________________

Remember, corporate rock — especially major labels using the garage & psych name but getting
the sounds and history wrong yet again — will always stink!

Support the record labels and bands that remain loyal to the fuzz!
