Effective period / Period of releases: 2013

42 Ford Prefect is punk rock and roll formed in Portland, Oregon. They draw on their street punk, thrash, and American rock n roll roots to create a sonic signature that is entirely their own. A spastically crafted wall of fuzz, shotgun vocals, with an absolute lack of subtlety or nuance. Inspired by equal parts science fiction, whiskey, and horror, their songs use the imagery of fiction to express an uncompromising rage at both conservatism and pop-culture. There’s comedy here too, but don’t discount them for having a laugh: these songs are heartfelt and they come across as anthems.

42 Ford Prefect consists of Keith (guitar/vox), Jesse (drums/vox), and Patrick (guitar/vox)
