Sunami is my neighbor's band and they are incredibly nice dudes and super talented and have incredible amounts of hype. Go see them play if they come to your town.

garage punk really only works when the band taps into some kinda feral mutant energy that takes it somewhere, like early oblivions or jay reatard or blind shake or mummies...The Stools from Detroit have it

NY Times : The day’s lineup, a showcase for the respected Baltimore and New York label Flatspot, illustrated how hardcore is rapidly diverging from its former status as an outlet for largely white, male aggression. The three friends from Atlanta arrived just in time to catch the end of a raucous set by Buggin, a Chicago quartet featuring the caustic shout of its nonbinary Black singer, Bryanna Bennett. The bill also included two female-fronted acts, Baltimore’s Jivebomb and Scowl, from Santa Cruz, Calif.; Australia’s Speed, featuring members of Asian descent; Colombia’s Raw Brigade; and Regulate, whose Colombia-born frontman, Sebastian Paba, grappled with Eurocentric beauty standards on the 2022 track “Hair.”

hi guys what'd i miss?
I have a weekend ticket for the last ever Static Shock Weekend. is punk dead? wtf am I going to do next year
― Colonel Poo, Friday, 28 July 2023 23:54 (nine months ago) link
this year I've seen "retirement tours (except they are still going to do festivals)" by UK Subs and Cockney Rejects, matinee gigs for the old folks by Rubella Ballet, Chaotic Dischord and Disorder, and some gigs by people who can't collect their pension yet by Bad Breeding, Scowl, Flash, Rat Cage, Sniffany & the Nits, Alien Nosejob, the Spits/Private Function and Powerplant.
next week I'm seeing TSOL and Toxic Reasons, and possibly Gang Green, but there is industrial action on the trains so not sure if I can actually get there.

good local live band I've seen recently but don't think they've released anything is Electric Cowboy Club, kind of demented Cramps type thing where the singer will crawl around the floor in the audience. they supported the Exploited here a few months ago, and I spoke to their singer recently and he said Wattie came up to him and said he doesn't usually watch support bands but he really liked them lol

― is he disgruntled adrian? (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 6 September 2023 14:51 (eight months ago) link
one things i love about the simps is despite the primitive garage style there’s actually some covert sick chops under the hood. the guitar on “love without friction” off the first album is so genius
