BUMMERFEST: August 2010

FUN

going through a phase where I edit everything.
been ripping vinyls at 45 and then remixing the pitch so the vocals stay at 33 1/2.
also been taking normal tracks and sludging them out.
Just sounds better.
get these
Hendrix on 45
Alice Cooper on 45

X-Creta

THE BEST mid-eighties Belgian thrash that skullfucks and dicksmashes its way out of your speakers. This is their only release. They're basically a total mystery. This shit is heavy and needs to be played REALLY fucking loud

X-CRETA - Patronizing the Heterodox LP 1986

High Castle

Met these guys in Oakland at Stanford house. they ruled way too hard. They're coming to LA on October 2nd. don't miss it.

High Castle - You're On Your Own Way 12" ep

Harpoon Guns

Another awesome band that broke up. Total bummer. Harpoon Guns = kings of punk.

Harpoon Guns - st 7" (e001)

Gay Beast

Insanely good band. Had the pleasure of playing 2 shows with these guys. Heard this 7" is out of print now; not sure how true that is considering I just got this last month. Anyways, this record rules.

Gay Beast - s/t 7" (gilango records)

MOBS!

Underrated. Check it out.
MOBS - Diabolism EP

MASTURBATION

Awesome Japcore. No need to explain.

MASTURBATION - LP

KAM

Kam is the real deal. You can either listen to illiterate bullshit like 2pac or you can listen to some funky ass, socially-relevant hood music.

Kam - Neva Again LP

Isolation Ward

Belgian coldwave at its best. got really into cold/darkwave last winter and stocked up.
Isolation Ward - Point Final LP

Doddodo

Another album found totally on accident. Heavy psychedelic beats with Public Enemy and Black Flag samples. Imagine Mark Mothersbaugh getting dosed with really bad acid and locking himself in the Discovery Science Center basement, only being able to watch Japanese Saturday morning cartoons while listening to 80's and 90's hip-hop and eating Reptar gummies.

DODDODO - SLIMECORE!!!
