Sometimes you gotta make it for yourself

So c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon and laugh with me.


Music coming soon, hopefully.

Apologia

I apologize to the 1 or 2 people who actually view this blog at least biannually. Mark that I will put up more music... eventually. Sit tight, I have more music to upload than I know what to do with.

The Heroine Sheiks - (We Are The)

Hailing from Brooklyn, the Heroine Sheiks are a noise rock band that I've been fond of for quite a while. Think of them as a melodic version of Cows. Incidentally both are on Amphetamine Reptile Records, who have released albums from such bands as Boss Hog, Brainiac, Helmet, Jawbox, and Janitor Joe. Quality stuff. Enjoy.

Moccasin - Last Leaf

Many bands on Buddyhead Records don't get enough respect. I mean sure, the owners are dicks who post personal information on almost-universally reviled artists for the sole pleasure of making said people miserable, but they're funny dicks, and that makes them ok in my book. To be back on point, Moccasin is one of those Buddyhead bands who get scoffed at for being associated with such upstarts. There is irony to be had in this, since all bands on the label are good. From Moccasin to Wires On Fire, Icarus Line(before they jumped ship) and Jubilee, all their discographies are worth owning. With Moccasin's Last Leaf, once you hear the stoner-rock/pseudo-shoegaze tinged loud rock you'll be hard-pressed to find a substitute just as good. Enjoy.

Uzeda - Waters

I suppose it's too late to wish everyone a "Happy New Year!". Right then, on to the music...

Uzeda is a Sicilian "math rock" band formed in 1987. It's been around for over 20 years now and it strikes me that it hasn't made more of a name for themselves. Despite having their albums produced by the indomitable Steve Albini (whose albums I will eventually upload), their apparent obscurity here in the U.S. further exemplifies the reluctance of people to explore new musical horizons. Ironic, since they sound a lot like Sonic Youth circa "Goo" era, albeit with a more sludgier sound. Enjoy.
