When I was sixteen I listened to punk.
But it weren't anything like some of the garagey punk that is coming out now, I've been listening to Eddy Current Suppression Ring's album 'Primary Colors' and I love it. I think it's going to be my next vinyl buy. They are this garage band from Melbourne who are making really low fi kind of punk. Same for Sydney band Halal, How are you? who I'm going to go and see on Wednesday 24th at Spectrum, on oxofrd street. I'm so excited. So this is the music that I really like listening to at the moment. I'm not sure you'll be into it but I'd mos def drag you along to this gig.
AND then when I thought I couldn't get excited about SXSW enough, Death are talking and performing! They are kind of along this same influence as the bands before, a punk band from detroit, although they exsisted BEFORE punk was punk. They're demo tape from 1974 was completely lost until it was released only a month ago. Their only release in 1976 traded for like $800 it was only one song. The music is amazing, to think that they were punk before punk was punk is incredible.
Enjoy some new tunes.
24 days.
