― Jon Williams (ex machina), Sunday, 22 June 2003 19:16 (twenty-two years ago)

i think it's coming out on dfa backed with that eYe remix no? i got it off slsk

― ssean, Sunday, 22 June 2003 19:24 (twenty-two years ago)

The EyE mix didn't impress me

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Sunday, 22 June 2003 19:27 (twenty-two years ago)

I've realized my solo noise has fallen into Wolf Eyes cliche:

- Echoy, muddy vocals
- Slow plodding bass drum
- Hearing test blipping

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Monday, 23 June 2003 12:02 (twenty-two years ago)

jon, can i get a tape?

― your null fame (yournullfame), Monday, 23 June 2003 12:06 (twenty-two years ago)

I think my show on Thursday is going to be recorded, and probably released by IJustLiveHere (They also put out the Snug CDR which is ILXor Ian Johnson's noise stuff.)

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Monday, 23 June 2003 12:18 (twenty-two years ago)

oh, that's that japanese karaoke guy's label? rokk on!

― your null fame (yournullfame), Monday, 23 June 2003 13:46 (twenty-two years ago)

Did you see them? They're pretty good friends of mine (I drink all their beer).

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Monday, 23 June 2003 13:59 (twenty-two years ago)

no, we got the "afterlife experiment" cdr at my station. pretty fucked.

― your null fame (yournullfame), Monday, 23 June 2003 14:58 (twenty-two years ago)

haha dude, their whole name is Japanese Karaoke Afterlife Experiment. Their new stuff is a lot better than the CDR, there's vocals used on more stuff.

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Monday, 23 June 2003 15:12 (twenty-two years ago)

well, hell, man, the liner notes look like they were written by a crackhead. (though i did at first think it was JKAE not "AE" by JK, the guy who reviewed it assured everyone it was the latter...)

― your null fame (yournullfame), Monday, 23 June 2003 15:14 (twenty-two years ago)

Wolf Eyes absolutely killed at the Movement Festival (formerly the Detroit Electronic Music Festival) in Detroit Memorial Day weekend. They just played at a middle school for gifted children in a wealthy suburb or Detroit, but unfortunately I didn't make the show.

That is all.

― Jeff Sumner (Jeff Sumner), Monday, 23 June 2003 15:18 (twenty-two years ago)

I'd be interested to see this review. I haven't see the liner notes because there is at least four different versions of the CDR.

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Monday, 23 June 2003 15:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Jon,

Is anyone gonna release your and Ian's stuff?

― gygax! (gygax!), Monday, 23 June 2003 15:24 (twenty-two years ago)

Ian samples it on his CD. I'm not really happy with the lack of stereo separation on the stuff we recorded with a room mic. A lot of it is boring. I think we might do some stuff with my current solo setup + his current solo setup. Then I'll cut up the earlier tracks. I don't know.

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Monday, 23 June 2003 15:31 (twenty-two years ago)

omg people really will listen to anything

― chaki (chaki), Monday, 23 June 2003 16:27 (twenty-two years ago)

people go to your shows right?

― gygax! (gygax!), Monday, 23 June 2003 16:29 (twenty-two years ago)

ouch!

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Monday, 23 June 2003 16:39 (twenty-two years ago)

ouch? that aint shit.

― chaki (chaki), Monday, 23 June 2003 16:53 (twenty-two years ago)

hehe... anyone who claims the 805 is all right w/ me.

― gygax! (gygax!), Monday, 23 June 2003 16:57 (twenty-two years ago)

omg i just read a website thats the history of "nardcore" (oxnard punk) it was like 805 pride all over the place

― chaki (chaki), Monday, 23 June 2003 17:03 (twenty-two years ago)

link please!

does it mention scott radinsky (major league baseball pitcher and teenage screamer for scared straight?)

i only got my "nardcore" jones as a youngster from rodney bingenheimer bootleg tapes that i'd buy via mailorder...

aside from scared straight, ill repute's "clean cut american kid" was the most memorable of all those tracks.

[funny thing, dilloway would love this thread now]

the wolf eyes side project violent ramp is pretty much riding the vibe of some of the nardcore "local apocalypse" action that comes through.

when i lived in ventura, i surfed hollywood-by-the-sea and silver strand a few times and never felt that heavy local scene that was infamous in the 80s.

― gygax! (gygax!), Monday, 23 June 2003 17:16 (twenty-two years ago)

nice!

scott radinsky from simi valley! (like me) now in jock rock bands Pulley and Ten Foot Pole!

sort of on topic,
has anyone heard tan as fuck before?x new faggot cunts if anyone remembers them..
im doing a show for them in milwaukee when they come through on thursday (mossmaster from neon hunk is also playing)they rule

― juiceboxxx (juiceboxxx), Monday, 23 June 2003 17:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Tan as Fuck played the other night with the Dutchies (who I think they're touring with), myself, Noise Nomads and Japanese Karaoke Afterlife Experiment. They ruled. Noisy/droney/jazzy stuff. I'm not sure how much of it was improv and how much was written, but it was quite fun. Loud drones building to crescendos, jazzy drumming, sometimes bass or guitar. Totally cool in my book.

― Ian Johnson, Monday, 23 June 2003 18:29 (twenty-two years ago)

oh, and assuming the dutchies are playing also, they're a weird kind of Riot Grrl/Pop Punk thing. Like you'd expect to find on Kill Rock Stars about 7-8 years ago. Good, though. Nice girls and catchy toonz.

― Ian Johnson, Monday, 23 June 2003 18:30 (twenty-two years ago)

One of the girls from the dutchies was flirting with me :(

I was way too drunk!

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Monday, 23 June 2003 18:42 (twenty-two years ago)

yea the dutchies are playing too.im pumped!

― juiceboxxx (juiceboxxx), Monday, 23 June 2003 19:01 (twenty-two years ago)

omg i just read a website thats the history of "nardcore" (oxnard punk) it was like 805 pride all over the place

what the hell? everybody's all up in my hometown's crack.

one month passes...

Here's the Andrew WK thing if y'all wanna hear it.

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Thursday, 24 July 2003 17:24 (twenty-two years ago)

Wow,....So I just found this...and it's funny, cuz that thing about To live and Shave that was posted like two years ago, that yer'all talkin about was not posted by me...Anyone that knows me could tell you just by the writing that that was not me...funny though. I will say that the first To Live and Shave CD is probably my favorite recording of the 90's. But I did not even know about this board until like a week ago. Someone was using my name. Also, it is flattering to see all the nice things said about Wolf Eyes...We are a mess, but I'm glad that some of ya'll dig it.
lata,

Hey dude from Wolf Eyes,

You should play Rochester, NY again cause I'm moving there soon, so now with Pengoo there's like over 10 people who would go to the show.

K THX!!!!

Anyone know about RUBBER-O-CEMENT?

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Wednesday, 18 February 2004 06:01 (twenty-two years ago)

three months pass...

Listening to the Wolf Eyes "w/ Spikes" CD, it begins really boring, droning, typical Wolf Eyes shit. They start to add synths and more noise . Then suddenly Nate's vocals come in PERFECTLY clear and unexpected on one side of the headphones. He makes some totally weird noises that sound more like some of the vocal sounds that Black Dice would sue before beginnning stuff with actual lyrics. Ocassionally there is some vut up bit of onamonapeia from him, as the band thumps and drones away.

Liking this so far. Its now in a break where the pulse has stopped and there's all kinds of paper ripping noises.

This definitely has a different version of Wretched Hog from Dread.

― 24 hours with the King of Snake. (SNAKE!) (ex machina), Wednesday, 19 May 2004 12:50 (twenty-two years ago)

Amazing! This song samples a distorted version of that Xmas song that goes "something something Christ the king".

― 24 hours with the King of Snake. (SNAKE!) (ex machina), Wednesday, 19 May 2004 12:58 (twenty-two years ago)

I have "Mugger" and one that they did with Black Dice. It's very noisy with a few ambient bits but mostly unlistenable noise. That said it was quite cool strolling around a market town in the British sunshine whilst listening to it. Is this stuff typical of what they do? Sometimes I do wonder what the appeal is here and how much one should take this kind of music seriously?

― dog latin (dog latin), Wednesday, 19 May 2004 13:38 (twenty-two years ago)

I haven't heard Mugger, but the Black Dice collaboration is fairly atypical for them.

― 24 hours with the King of Snake. (SNAKE!) (ex machina), Wednesday, 19 May 2004 13:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, the Black Dice collab was a lot more restrained than I thought it would be. I like it, though. Anyone else hear their Recycled Music cassette? At one point it sounds like the hull of ship breaking up.

― Jeff Sumner (Jeff Sumner), Wednesday, 19 May 2004 15:57 (twenty-two years ago)

Nardcore love on this thread.

― deanomgwtf!!!p%3Fmsgid%3D4581997 (deangulberry), Wednesday, 19 May 2004 16:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Mugger is kind of atypical for them.. they usually have a lot more dynamic variation; Mugger tends to be ALL LOUD, ALL THE TIME, if I remember correctly.

The recyceld cassette is great too!

The Lost Sockets 3" that came out recently on Chondritic isn't as thrilling. I think I've only listened to it once or twice since I got it.

― Ian Johnson (orion), Wednesday, 19 May 2004 21:07 (twenty-two years ago)

from the Polyamory mailing list, if anyone's interested:

'released' today on Polyamory:

WOODEN WAND & TOVAH D DAY
"Bad News Bearers" cassette

Bad News Bearers is a very special release in that it commemorates the very first released one-on-one collaboration between Polyamory co-founders / best friends Wooden Wand and Tovah D Day. It took nearly ten years, but here it is.

Fans of Tovah's other band Dead Machines will be happy to hear that the future Mrs.Olson is definitely the captain of this particluar ship, her cracked electronics, pitch-fucked cymbal sputter and lonely wolf calls taking center stage, while Wooden Wand augments with ring modulator, voice and percussion. Our favorite Polyamory release since A Cut Above!

$5 ppd - paypal to [email protected] preferred.
