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.

ooooh interested

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

man i'd like to see bottomless pit again

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 ...

yeah i could never get into REL as much as skull kontrol or the monorchid

congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 17:44 (1 year ago) Permalink

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 (1 year ago) Permalink

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 (1 year ago) Permalink

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 (1 year ago) Permalink

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 (1 year ago) Permalink

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

<3 skull kontrol

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 (1 year ago) Permalink

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 (1 year ago) Permalink

he was

Rudy Ray Reardon (DJ Mencap), Thursday, 5 April 2012 16:30 (1 year ago) Permalink

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 (1 year ago) Permalink

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 (1 year ago) Permalink

haha really weird

Mississippi Butt Hurt (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 5 April 2012 18:16 (1 year ago) Permalink

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 (1 year ago) Permalink

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

so this is old from 2008 but it is awesome

diamanda ram dass (Edward III), Tuesday, 10 April 2012 18:41 (1 year ago) Permalink

I know, right? I was all fired up to book them a pvd show but apparently one of the dudes had a baby and now they're semi-defunct.

flopson, Wednesday, 18 April 2012 00:31 (1 year ago) Permalink

lol me too - in fact I could've sworn I looked at that site a few years ago and it was frozen in 2003, either I am mistaken or they managed to reboot it recently?
