Phillies fight song watch: Guerilladelphia's "Unstoppable"

POSTED: Monday, October 26, 2009, 10:46 PM

As if one Phillies song - last week's blast from NeeKo, "Ill State of Mind" - wasn't enough, here's one that's one that's a little more sporty: "Unstoppable" from Guerilladelphia.

[audio:http://stream.citypaper.net/music/UNSTOPPABLE.mp3]

Guerilladelphia, made up of Don McCloskey, Chuck Treece (Bad Brains, McRad) and Tom Spiker (Kellis) came into effect after McCloskey watched the Phils beat the Colorado Rockies in the first round of the playoffs, then called Treece and Spiker to record what he’d written.

And then the real work began.

  • Like phone calls to out-of-town Philadelphia natives G. Love and Kufie (in Boston at the time, they added vocal and harmonica tracks).
  • Getting Jay Davidson, Larry Toft and Patrick Hughes to add horn parts
  • Playing a raw demo at the North Bowl and snagging Phil Nicolo to mix the victory track.

That teamwork’s even better than what you see on the field. Get it for free at guerrilladelphia.com.
