So I am coming to New York to play a rock and roll concert next weekend.

That is, my band, the Franchise, is playing at Continental on Sunday, August 28, at 9:45. You could come to the show. Or, you know, not.

American Altitude, my band, will have a song on an upcoming Beekiller compilation which will also feature tracks by Grizzly Bear, Mike Wexler, Elizabeth Harper, Winter Pageant, Brad Lauretti, Begushkin, and others.

Shimura Curves will be playing a gig soon with some other ILXy types!

My band (www.thearticles.net) also put on our own little night every two months at the buffalo bar in London. We're very lazy and find it difficult to find bands, so if any of you would like to play sometime, email me.

It's fun, usually.

Finally I have my stuff available on the net. It's a kind of industrial-folk-electronica, but one thing at a time. :-) The project is called Sq'Etch, and you can check the Homemade EP here:

Mama Digdown's Brass Band is mixing the set of songs that we recorded in Switzerland this summer, which will hopefully be released within a couple months.

― Jordan (Jordan), Monday, 22 August 2005 15:59 (twenty years ago)

I have a dj "mix" cd out soon:

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Monday, 22 August 2005 16:02 (twenty years ago)

Dan - looking forward to your mix cd!

My band: Kid Congo & The Pink Monkey Birds -- our new album is out next month. It's called "Philosophy and Underwear", out on TransSolar Records. The promos are out in Europe so won't be surprised if it's leaked soon. Fans of Kid's past stuff will be pleasantly surprised, methinks. Touring all over Europe this autumn (hurrah!) -- I hope we get to play Optimo!

We're doing a show as part of the Howl Festival here on NYC this Saturday, the 27th, btw.

i have started a myspace thingy for the newer more whimsical and perhaps slightly more depressed me of late, which can be found at http://www.myspace.com/lighttoucher ... for the time being it's all processed guitar stuff... melodic... basically ripping off fennesz, tbh, but i think it's pretty good anyhow.

― firstworldman (firstworldman), Tuesday, 23 August 2005 02:19 (twenty years ago)

FirstWorld, your stuff is very nice. I am adding you to our myspace friends.

― Hurting (Hurting), Tuesday, 23 August 2005 03:19 (twenty years ago)

thanks very much : )
i'm listening to american altitude right now. what do you do in the band? i like it, it's fairly straight songforms but kind of a weird way of going about them compartmentally. or something.

― firstworldman (firstworldman), Tuesday, 23 August 2005 03:27 (twenty years ago)

I'm the drummer, but I play lead banjo on Mountain and a Missile :)

The stuff on that page, excepting the Blind Bird demo, is all over two years old. We're recording a new one right now.

― Hurting (Hurting), Tuesday, 23 August 2005 03:37 (twenty years ago)

firstworldman, that's some pretty stuff indeed.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Tuesday, 23 August 2005 04:19 (twenty years ago)

thanks a lot, dan...
not to be the guy who trades compliments with everybody, but i am genuinely excited about your rvng mix... i really wanted to go to a crazy rhythms party when i was in new york, i guess my home stereo will have to suffice for now though.

Salon is plugging mine today:

You have to watch an ad but the whole section is worth it - a bunch of well-curated free downloads there.

Currently we are four songs into the recording of an album by Sister DJ's Radio Band. Here's "Rumble At Pearson High":

i love this man. he's the nicest person you're bound to meet 'round these parts.

Wow, reading this thread is like Band Promotion: Before and After MySpace.

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 26 February 2007 17:06 (nineteen years ago)

I would post my stuff again, but I hate it right now. That will change once I return from the bodega with smokes.

― Andi Mags, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 07:27 (nineteen years ago)

Here is a bit of my own music.

Umm, my band (Matmos) is playing a special improv collaborative set with Marshall Allen from the Sun Ra Arkestra at the Natural History Museum in Los Angeles on Friday, March 2nd. Also on the bill is Ghost Land Observatory (have not heard them). Please come and say hello and stuff. We're going to perform in the Hall of North American Mammals.

― Drew Daniel, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 07:54 (nineteen years ago)

That sounds great but half a globe away from me.

my band is playing a plan b associated night and with scout niblett soon

currently driving myself mad playing everything and recording everything for our first EP out whenever the label has money.

― H-ari A-shurst, Tuesday, 27 February 2007 13:47 (nineteen years ago)

Just finished tracking our second album, which is basically going to be sloppy live-to-tape glam rock. Criticism welcome.

pretty songs for big giant people with skin disorders.

we are thinking of having regular sunday afternoon practices/jam sessions if anyone wants to come over and sit in.

I slapped a rekkid up on Bandcamp awhile back. Sort of a hodge podge of power pop, 90s indie and Tropicalia.

Before the other three people sue me to take this down, here's my pickup band from three years ago. We're doing Robert Pollard's "Subspace Biographies," the Ramones' "Now I Wanna Be a Good Boy," and CVB's "Take the Skinheads Bowling"--just in case it sounds like undifferentiated drone.

Mine too, festivals especially.

Am I the only person who gets an Israeli fascist right wing demonstration video instead of clemenza's band?

― drunk 'n' white's elements of style (Hurting 2), Monday, 19 November 2012 15:54 (thirteen years ago)

I see, from left to right, a drummer, a bassist, a guitarist (whom I think is clemenza), and a guitarist/singer.

I see that glass wave video from another thread. I think clemenza's link is showing the last youtube you watched. It's either a mistake, or clemenza is pulling some sort of Time Magazine's person of the year deal.

― Mozzarella i Fieri (Sufjan Grafton), Monday, 19 November 2012 16:08 (thirteen years ago)

That's weird--the link works fine for me, and seems to work for snoball too. Here it is again, non-embedded:

Am I the only person who gets an Israeli fascist right wing demonstration video instead of clemenza's band?

i get what is apparently a playlist of my recent youtube favorites. as far as i can tell clemenza's band is a mirror that reflects back into your soul?

Did a bit of a half-baked job plugging ¢h@r1i€ $tr@ight earlier so should probably elaborate on YouTube clip. They're a big band in their domestic market (won an MTV Europe award and Czech equivalent to the Brits) but are having to start from the bottom of the ladder elsewhere. I usually have a knee-jerk hatred of Anglophile indie-pop but they are genuinely very good and I think they could fit in quite well on mainstream radio across Europe and particularly in the UK. Aside from a glowing mention in The Guardian in the summer they haven't really had much attention in the press here.

If anyone is interested in booking or interviewing them, let me know. The lead singer is very funny and engaging.

― Go Narine, Go! (ShariVari), Monday, 19 November 2012 18:36 (thirteen years ago)

I have a few things out there in the shops right now: HASSAN ( on L.I.E.S. label) and MMT Tapes ( 4 12" records/ unknown label). Electronic things.

― Loo Reading (Capitaine Jay Vee), Monday, 19 November 2012 19:05 (thirteen years ago)

I'm not trying to brag or anything but my mom will listen to my 2008 joint every now and again. As for my one from 2010 it just rocks too hard for her tastes. Point of reference, she's into Adele, Elton John, Il Divo - that whole scene.
