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

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 (twelve years ago) link

haha really weird

Mississippi Butt Hurt (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 5 April 2012 18:16 (twelve 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/

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:

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

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

Mississippi Butt Hurt (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 10 April 2012 21:26 (twelve years ago) link

wow, that dishwashers vid is great. 2008? would have loved to have seen them.

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.

diamanda ram dass (Edward III), Tuesday, 10 April 2012 21:46 (twelve years ago) link

haven't listened to it yet but coffin pricks have a live set up for free download/streaming on epitonic: http://epitonic.com/

flopson, Wednesday, 18 April 2012 00:31 (twelve years ago) link

just to say that the grindcore band MRSA are fucking badass and remind me a bit of Capitalist Casualties.

yep.

That Dishwashers thing rules! What was the story with those guys?!

She Got the Shakes, Sunday, 22 April 2012 23:30 (twelve years ago) link

from NYC, don't think they ever released anything, apparently they did record some stuff tho. now defunct but I'm trying to inveigle something.

diamanda ram dass (Edward III), Monday, 23 April 2012 00:01 (twelve years ago) link

yeah, i looked all over for any word of anything officially released, no dice

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?

congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 21:43 (twelve years ago) link

l0u1s j0rdan (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 25 April 2012 22:23 (twelve years ago) link

two weeks pass...

so whats been going on around portland/olympia/spokane/seattle? who should i check out from that area?

billstevejim, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 21:10 (eleven years ago) link

This may violate the 'non-indie'ness of this thread to some extent, but from Olympia, you should scope:

- Milk Music
- Gun Outfit
- Broken Water
- Weird TV
- Son Skull
- White Boss

ghosttaster, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 21:28 (eleven years ago) link

Milk Music just played up the road from where I was doing a show tonight (in the UK) which obv meant I didn't see them - they have a groundswell of publicity on their side tho so it probly did OK

my show had a pretty crappy turnout but featured London ensemble WOOLF who are relevant to the parameters of this thread and were triffic in a no wave riot grrrl standup drummer Skinned Teen way

cissémanwhore (DJ Mencap), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 23:58 (eleven years ago) link

I love the First Four EPs and lurve last year's "Rotten Apple," but am I the only fan who finds the production on the new Off! album a little... off?

Pete Scholtes, Thursday, 17 May 2012 10:51 (eleven years ago) link

I haven't heard the new Off!...as much add I loved the 7 inch box, and seeing them live, I kinda don't wanna mess with it....it was this perfect little blast from someone I'd never expected to care about again

Not sure I want off to be around like a career band

Bandersnatch Cumberbund (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 17 May 2012 13:42 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah, totally! It was just this out-of-nowhere surprise thing; it would kind of be cool as a standalone curiosity. What's wrong with the production on the new one? I thought the Pitchfork review pretty much said "more of the same," tunes-wise.

Walter Galt, Thursday, 17 May 2012 13:46 (eleven years ago) link

I like the new one a good deal more than the EPs collection - there's very little demonstrable difference btwn them other than (imo) the songs on 'Off!' are better and earwormier

cissémanwhore (DJ Mencap), Thursday, 17 May 2012 14:39 (eleven years ago) link

def going to check it out

their live show was amazing...the "encore" was the first 3 songs over again which was the funniest, they didn't know any more songs

Bandersnatch Cumberbund (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 17 May 2012 16:05 (eleven years ago) link

also keith morris is so TINY!

Bandersnatch Cumberbund (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 17 May 2012 16:05 (eleven years ago) link

They've got a '91-era David Yow effect on the vocals except annoying, and the drums sound muted. The sound on the EPs is something approaching punk perfection for me...

Pete Scholtes, Thursday, 17 May 2012 18:16 (eleven years ago) link

but I'll buy that the songs are better, will investigate further.

Pete Scholtes, Thursday, 17 May 2012 18:22 (eleven years ago) link

I happened to catch Coffin Pricks this Saturday in Chicago and can attest to their greatest in a live setting.

chr1sb3singer, Monday, 21 May 2012 13:57 (eleven years ago) link

ha i saw them on thursday, chris thompson seemed kind of uncomfortable

congratulations (n/a), Monday, 21 May 2012 14:22 (eleven years ago) link

He always seems uncomfortable, that's his weird charm I think

chr1sb3singer, Monday, 21 May 2012 14:49 (eleven years ago) link

the Culture Kids full-length fuckin rules and you all should just download it.

Just heard the new White Lung and Grass Widow albums. Both are awesome! My favorite offerings from both bands, especially White Lung. This new album SHREDS, and really shows off their abilities as musicians. I also got around to the Neon Piss LP, and it's very good as well. Waaaay different than what I was expecting them to sound like. And yeah, I agree with Table, the Culture Kids LP is rad. I like the production on their last full length better, but I think the songs on this new one are way better.

Izzy Pod, Wednesday, 30 May 2012 08:29 (eleven years ago) link

will listen to that White Lung LP later and assuming it's as good as decriptions suggest grab a copy when it reaches the UK

cissémanwhore (DJ Mencap), Wednesday, 30 May 2012 09:03 (eleven years ago) link

came here to make mention of white lung but i see i've been beaten to the punch. album just dropped this week, i think. SHREDS is a good word to describe it, but it also doesn't emphasize how great the song-writing is. i find w/ a lot of popular hardcore acts these days, i can get behind the sound, but they really lack in the tunage department. not here. stream the LP here:
