Pennywise, Street Drum Corps Lend a Hand to Pepper's New Record

Rock-reggae band Pepper are going to spice up your summer with their fifth studio album, Pink Crustaceans and Good Vibrations, and a bunch of tour dates.



The Hawaii-born threesome are following up '06's To Da Max with a record on July 22 that is sure to set your ears on fire. OK, enough with the pepper jokes. Let's talk about the insane list of guest stars that will be appearing on Vibrations.

Pennywise bass player Randy Bradbury lends his professionalism to a Pepper bonus track called "Co-- Man," as well as another track called "Black Out." Can't get enough Bradbury goodness? He also appears on the Pepper B-side "Reliable."

The masters of turning almost anything into drums, otherwise known as Street Drum Corps, appear on multiple Vibrations tracks, like "Things That You Love" and "Ambition." I wonder if they play the telephone or computer mouse on any of the songs.

Once Pepper return home from their European tour with Flogging Molly, they will embark on a short headlining trek before traveling the United States with fellow rock-reggae band Slightly Stoopid for the summer.
