The Foxboro Hot Tubs made their inconspicuous debut in December 2007,
when three songs were posted on the band's website. While the Hot Tubs'
identity was kept secret, several influential bloggers and news outlets
claimed the group was actually a side project for all three members of
Green Day, who had recently retreated from the public eye to work on
their American Idiot follow-up. Such rumors had yet to be confirmed when
a track from the band's Stop Drop and Roll EP, "Mother Mary", entered
the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks charts and climbed to number 16.
Whoever the Foxboro Hot Tubs were, their tuneful take on garage rock
(equally indebted to Iggy Pop, The Hives, Tommy James And The Shondells)
proved to be quite popular, and fans awaited the release of the group's
full-length debut. Stop Drop and Roll!!! was made available in MP3
format in April 2008, with a proper release following in May.
Recorded and mixed in 2007 by Chris Dugan on a 1/4" 8 track, except "Dark Side of Night" recorded on a 4 lousy track. Mastered by Ken Lee
