bastard noise hit and miss in my experience, you might want to also mention them here: rolling NOISE thread 2012
speaking of MRR, their review of the new FNU ronnies sounds like it was written by somebody thawed out after being cryogenically frozen in the 80s

new Slices is up on the label's bandcamp: http://ironlungpv.bandcamp.com/album/slices-still-cruising-lp
it's way grungier than the first album which I *think* they make work - speeds up in the second half but I get a Sub Pop-circa-1989 kinda vibe from it on first play

new skoal kodiak video

that video is basically how I imagine minneapolis, ppl getting drunk, cars crashing in the snow, plows flipping over
― diamanda ram dass (Edward III), Tuesday, 20 March 2012 13:45 (twelve years ago) link
my band was going to play a show with skoal kodiak last year but their drummer threw out his back and they had to cancel their tour. I was bummed.
― diamanda ram dass (Edward III), Tuesday, 20 March 2012 14:03 (twelve years ago) link
ooh too band edward, they are quite a force of nature live.
people in mpls are way better drunk driving in snow than that
btw, another bunch of (former) locals Clipd Beaks have a new album out on Bandcamp:
http://clipdbeaks.bandcamp.com/
(was recorded around the time of their excellent album To Realize)
― konybrony (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 21 March 2012 20:35 (twelve years ago) link
if it sounds like the set they played live a week or so back, it's kinda a different sound for them.
― sarahell, Wednesday, 21 March 2012 22:02 (twelve years ago) link
yea heard nothing but good things about SK live show
― diamanda ram dass (Edward III), Wednesday, 21 March 2012 23:23 (twelve years ago) link
and not to speak ill of them, because i like the records but frankly i would say that they are one of those bands that's not going to ever be totally captured on a record IMO
― konybrony (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 21 March 2012 23:26 (twelve years ago) link
that's ok I'm sure they'll make more money from playing shows to big crowds than they ever will from record sales

happened upon a group on bandcamp called fake limbs. they're from chicago.
http://fakelimbs.bandcamp.com/album/man-feelings
also, that slices album is the shit.

i dunno where else to post this but new merchandisehttp://katorgaworks.bigcartel.com/product/merchandise-children-of-desire-lp
― billstevejim, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 06:21 (eleven years ago) link
ha i kind of feel like that fake limbs album is designed for me - local dudes, love the band name, album name, album cover, song titles. the songs could be a little better but i like it.

they kinda sound like rye coalition before they went totally led zep

dang they opened for bottomless pit here last week :( wish i had known

chris thomson from the monorchid/skull kontrol/ignition/red-eyed legends has a new band called coffin pricks http://soundcloud.com/coffin-pricks
― congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 16:57 (eleven years ago) link
ooooh interested
― 69, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 16:58 (eleven years ago) link
sounds pretty good, maybe a little more straight-ahead than his other bands but i always like to hear him singing. i think he posted on ilx once to correct my spelling of his last name
― congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 17:03 (eleven years ago) link
man i'd like to see bottomless pit again
― the penultimate prophets (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 17:12 (eleven years ago) link
I love Chris Thomson, but the Red-Eyed Legends sounded kinda lifeless to me when I listened to it, which was not something I would have ever imagined from a CT record. Maybe my memory is harsh. Coffin Pricks sound alright so far ...
― grandavis, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 17:43 (eleven years ago) link
yeah i could never get into REL as much as skull kontrol or the monorchid
― congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 17:44 (eleven years ago) link
yeah i saw red-eyed legends too and they didn't do much for me
― the penultimate prophets (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 17:45 (eleven years ago) link
I think maybe they just weren't good. Whereas Skull Kontrol, The Monorchid, and Circus Lupus were great.
― grandavis, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 17:46 (eleven years ago) link
feel like his bands always start out strong and then fade pretty quickly, maybe that's why he's in a new band every couple of years?
― congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 17:47 (eleven years ago) link
Yeah, maybe so. Don't know much about the dude at all, just like the records from those bands. Liked the first Skull Kontrol a lot better than the second though, so perhaps true overall.
― grandavis, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 17:48 (eleven years ago) link
I know a bunch of folks who weren't into Red Eyed Legneds much I always liked seeing them and dig the records, though I am admitedly biased.
Heard some of the Coffin Pricks stuff and I really like, though again I'm pretty much a sucker for any CT thing

That whole record rules. Played the hell out of it when I had a radio show. Plus, it's got Rick Froberg on it!
― grandavis, Thursday, 5 April 2012 15:49 (eleven years ago) link
Man, what does Andy Coronado do now? That guy's playing hits so many sweet spots for me. Was he in the Wrangler Brutes too?
― grandavis, Thursday, 5 April 2012 15:51 (eleven years ago) link
he was
― Rudy Ray Reardon (DJ Mencap), Thursday, 5 April 2012 16:30 (eleven years ago) link
Thought so, thanks (could have looked it up I guess). Gonna go listen to some Coronado.

new band from chicago called Football, one guy used to be in some great bands in mpls
http://soundcloud.com/football-chicago
initially riff reminds me of A Frames but then it gets a bit more garage but it's cool
― Mississippi Butt Hurt (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 5 April 2012 17:31 (eleven years ago) link
Football were sort of ridic metal-y when I saw them but I think they have "evolved" since then, natch
― chr1sb3singer, Thursday, 5 April 2012 18:15 (eleven years ago) link
haha really weird
― Mississippi Butt Hurt (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 5 April 2012 18:16 (eleven years ago) link
I think it was their first non-Super Bowl show and everyone(me)was really drunk so that might have affected my preception of it

had no idea the split cranium (isis, circle, pharoah overlord) record had dropped: http://splitcranium.bandcamp.com/
― borntohula, Thursday, 5 April 2012 21:24 (eleven years ago) link
Speaking of Wrangler Brutes related bands, there's a new band called C.R.A.S.H. that has Dean, from No Age, Michelle from Mika Miko, Cundo, from Nazti Skinz, and Brooks from Wrangler Brutes/Universal Order of Armageddon. REALLY good project. It's interesting to hear people from No Age and Mika Miko play straightforward hardcore.

Re Fake Limbs:
That description alone really makes me want to check them out. Thanks!

ha that's funny because i said the same thing on facebook and one of my friends was making fun of me for using "early rye coalition" as a helpful musical description
