five months pass...

Guerilla Toss and Horse Lords are the only bands I can think of that formed after 2010 that belong in this class. I really miss the abundance of insanely great experimental/noise acts in the 00's.

I would also shout out
Divorce: https://divorce.bandcamp.com/album/divorce-2
White Suns: https://whitesuns.bandcamp.com/album/sinews
Palberta: https://palbertapalberta.bandcamp.com/album/bye-bye-berta

But, yeah, pickings are slim these days

they miss themselves too -- now everyone's older and is having kids and merch sales doesn't offset the cost of touring the way it used to, and now it's all about darkwave and minimal wave and live PAs

sarahell, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 04:39 (six years ago) link

yeah it sucks

reggie (qualmsley), Tuesday, 20 June 2017 18:58 (six years ago) link

what does live PAs mean

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 18:58 (six years ago) link

V disappointed I missed Whiney's mixes.

Idk why I never got deeper into this scene; maybe just out of fear that it would be exhausting to keep up with it all?

No purposes. Sounds. (Sund4r), Tuesday, 20 June 2017 19:10 (six years ago) link

well it's over so it probably wouldn't be too exhausting

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 19:19 (six years ago) link

Well, yeah; I meant at the time.

No purposes. Sounds. (Sund4r), Tuesday, 20 June 2017 19:21 (six years ago) link

it was fun- I remember there was a whole section at a record store here that was just CDRs and tapes spraypainted with like... leaves and twigs and shit glued to the packaging

flappy bird, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 20:12 (six years ago) link

Just combing thru the Wolf Eyes discography was exhilarating... RIVER SLAUGHTER is my favorite of all those limited shits I got

flappy bird, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 20:13 (six years ago) link

Wolf Eyes has been really good about keeping their Bandcamp robust, and I've been enjoying the ability to hear a lot of this stuff

Sutcliffe Juugin' (Whiney G. Weingarten), Tuesday, 20 June 2017 21:26 (six years ago) link

Why does no one bring up Sun Foot, Human Adult Band, PC Worship, Kaleidoscope, FNU Clone, Timeghost, HOGG, etc. Tons of bands are plugging away. There is no one scene, but the bands are there. Some one should start a label to document it.

sneaker_bomba, Wednesday, 21 June 2017 00:54 (six years ago) link

PC Worship and Timeghost rule

flappy bird, Wednesday, 21 June 2017 02:01 (six years ago) link

because the only thing less lucrative than being in a noise band is running a noise label?

sarahell, Wednesday, 21 June 2017 02:44 (six years ago) link

this thread is a treasure. was sad that links to Whiney's mixes were broken. still... a ton of stuff to hunt down. was peripherally aware of some of the bands discussed here, but mostly just got into Wolf Eyes and Yellow Swans - though tbh the only Yellow Swans album I ever loved was Going Places which is pretty much ambient music (and released in '10).

beard papa, Wednesday, 21 June 2017 15:21 (six years ago) link

one year passes...

yo this Universal Eyes (Aaron Dilloway / Gretchen Gonzales / John Olson / Nate Young) album is amazing

crüt, Friday, 14 December 2018 17:22 (five years ago) link

I miss the whole Hair Police/Air Conditioning/Sightings vibes where it looked/felt like a Black Flag show with dudes thrashing around on instruments and people sweating all over, but sounded like a garbage truck eating a smaller garbage truck.

ever since the noise kids became ravers i miss going to a warehouse shows and watching a shirtless man stab an amplifier with a microphone for ten minutes

flappy bird, Friday, 14 December 2018 17:42 (five years ago) link

xp cool show, shame about the audience

sleeve, Friday, 14 December 2018 17:45 (five years ago) link

adam, Tuesday, 29 June 2021 23:28 (two years ago) link

Also, yes, I put a song I play drums on, which is a cornball move, but I couldn't resist.

lol <3

Vol. 0 is exactly what I want to be hearing in a vaccine hangover.

Sequel to Sadness (Sund4r), Wednesday, 30 June 2021 14:55 (two years ago) link

yeah psyched to listen to this, thanks. its funny, i used to love quintron but never occurred to me to slot him in w/that scene for whatever reason, but of course it makes total sense

nobody like my rap (One Eye Open), Wednesday, 30 June 2021 14:55 (two years ago) link

three weeks pass...

i've played drums in bands with several of the Vol. 0 people ... feels like another life.
