34 Bands, 4 nights, 5 Clubs! That’s Musique Automatique in Asheville, starting tonight. The band I’m most interested in are those alt-prog-metal-instrumental-video crazies Kings of Prussia. I probably won’t be there because I’ve lost the will to rock, or at least the time and money. Maybe I’ll stay home and play my Gore records instead. Go on without me! Save yourselves!
What a mellow fellow. Being a hot rod / custom culture fanatic I get to see a lot of Billy because he’s always sharing one of his vehicular masterpieces, but it’s also fun to hear him in such a laid back interview. Time well spent. Watch the whole thing, especially if you’re at work.
Thanks to my favorite HR executive “Danny Ocean” for the tip. More videos from The T-Bird.
“Tribulations” by LCD Soundsystem is a few years old. It’s been stuck in my head lately and I thought I would share something good from what is often a scary place. Fun video to boot!
Oh my goodness, this song rocks! I’m a long time fan of The Hellacopters and “Sign of the Octopus” from their new record Head Off is already one of my favorites. Listen closely for the cutting guitar lick at the end of the chorus. It only happens twice for a cumulative four seconds of rock and roll bliss. Be ready to rewind because you’re going to want more, more and more! And more!
If you’re still standing after “Octopus” check out more of their new stuff at their MySpace page, especially “No Salvation” and “Veronica Lake” and “I’m Watching You” and, well, all of ‘em. I gotta get the scratch together to add this to my Hellacopters record collection.
I can’t believe I just found this. This is a last minute post, but go see Kings of Prussia at Gourmet Perks (Asheville, NC) tonight. I’m sure I’ll be posting more about them soon. For now I’ll just say if a combo of Durutti Column, Voivod and Death Angel sounds good to you, then you’ll love this. Check out the video of my new favorite band.
And congrats to whoever made that show flyer. Fantastic.
