Mutating Meltdown / San Diego / Aug 7

One of my favorite records released this year is the Mutating Meltdown 7" on M'Lady's Records. It's post punk, no wave, distorted disco GOLD. Veronica & Erin from Finally Punk are 2/3 of MM, and I think it's their best project yet (although I love the fuck out of all of 'em, nuff raspeck).

Well all that being said, I'm straight trippin' that they're on tour now and on the way to sunny San Diego on Aug 7. Badass. They're playing a kinda big deal at Soda Bar. Beaters are playing and celebrating their new 7" release, along with Christmas Island, Wicked Awesomes and Le Face. Also, for extra added pleasure bonus, Crocodiles' Brandon will finally be back to help me clean the earholes of all the unsuspecting guests.

8 BUCKS playa...

Oh wait, how bout the flier huh? Gay Chicanos. All expressing themselves. What a find.

Lastly, check the Mutating Meltdown Myspace thing for all the tour info. They're playing literally EVERYWHERE so go see 'em!!

Aren't these SICK things?

Big Thursdays

God, look at this crooked ass sloppy poster. Sheez, right? Whatever. Tomorrow night is the big launch to our new weekly. Expressway To Yr Skull. It's at Soda Bar. Remember I told you in the blog post down a few? Anyway, it should be bananas and super bonkers. We have our ol' friend Andrew Miller, from Angel City coming down to add his special magic. Punk / Records / Rap / Fun / Magic / Beer.

Expressway To Yr Skull

When our night in San DIego, Skull Kontrol, at Live Wire ended due to license restrictions we were all super duper sad. These nights were MAGIC. Packed and loud, Thursdays were like New Year's Eve every week. Punk, rap, oldies, noisy ear hole cleaners and anything we wanted were spun shockingly to the enjoyment of all the fools that came through the doors.

Well I'm happy to announce a new night to give new life to our mangled up vision. This Thursday, we (Crocodiles' Sir Charles & Brandon and myself) start Expressway To Yr Skull at Soda Bar. There'll be new things to offer here including booking bands every now and then that we're proud to bring to our teeny, sunny and beloved San Diego. It will usually be free, or a tiny baby cover charge if we have a live groop. I hope if you are around you can make it out one of these messes. This week we have a special guest, Los Angeles' Andrew Miller.

The Homosexuals Are Back With A New Record And Tour

What a cool time to be a Homosexuals fan. Not only are the legendary UK/NYC post punkers back and touring again, but they have a fantastic new ten inch record, 'Love Guns?'. Seriously, it's good. Like band leader Bruno Wizard never missed a beat type good. If that isn't enough, it was just announced that Mike from Captured Tracks/Blank Dogs is teaming up with In The Red to reissue all the good early stuff on vinyl. All the classics. Astral Glamour. Hearts In Exile. And MORE. And you know you can always get the bad ass 3 cd set of all the early music, Astral Glamour. It's not expensive and comes with all kinds of visual goodies.

So check the Myspace link below, or their website, also linked below, and find where they'll be in yr city (there aren't that many U.S. dates!!). If you're in San Diego just stay here. They'll be playing this Friday with Kill Me Tomorow and The Anasazis at The Soda Bar. Yours truly will be blasting records. Don't be a fool and miss the magic. And speaking of magic, Kill Me Tomorrow played a new song over the weekend that was so good and I can't get it out of my head!











Listen to more songs on their Myspace thing.
