I might end up playing more rare/obscure/out of print stuff next week. Depends if I get enough time to listen to a whole bunch of it... we'll see.

Young Widows - Old Wounds

ATTN fans of the Jesus Lizard (I know you're out there, you phone me damn near every time I play them or Scratch Acid/Qui!): CHECK OUT THIS RECORD. I just got myself a copy earlier today and will obviously be playing it this Tuesday... but these guys have the bass/drum locked groove bit that the Jesus Lizard (and Shellac, and all those other 90's touch and go bands) did so well down to a science. Plus, y'know, it's noisy n' shit. Solid, straight-up noise rock. They wear their influences quite proudly, I mean, they even named a song "Glad He Ate Her" on their first record, and if you play it close to "Gladiator"...

Old Skin, from Old Wounds.

If you liked the Japanther song, the noisy New York based duo will be opening for Against Me! at the MacEwen Hall Ballroom this Saturday, Sept. 13th. Not sure if it's sold out yet, but it's probably worth checking out. I was gonna check them out by themselves up in Edmonton, but plans kinda fell through... the whole "having no transportation or money" catch.

Also, check out Holzkopf's Pure Bliss No Earth EP! Awesome stuff!

the Banshee Beat

I'm just posting this as a little notification thinger, but I'll be filling in for Myke on the Banshee Beat (Mondays 2-4 PM) for the next two weeks. If you weren't already listening to that show, do it now! It's one of the best shows on the station - I'm totally excited to be hosting it for a couple weeks.
