BUFF CORE

Here's a recent review for "lifeforce warriors".
As usual , the reviewer doesn't know what tracks are collabs and what tracks are the bands solo but whateves.



In more interesting news we are playing our first show with our new guitarist , come find out who he is. He's a soccer enthusiast. That's a clue.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
We're very excited to for this show. Not only are sightings one of our favorites in the current "noise" scene but ALSO they are one of the few bands we've met understand the whole "get in the van" thing. Mark even looks like he works out. I was luck to get to pick his brains on all the important things in life : Henry Rollins , Sacchrine Trust ( who are still alive and active!) and of copurse the literary works of Joe Carducci.

Can someone please start a movement called buff-core? The weightlifters in AW would dig the motivation.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

We'll be playing a few other shows in Ontario in June. Some of them are looking pretty darn hotttttt. We won't be hitting the USA til fall , but then we're looking at an intensive 6 week tour. We're bring a weight set for the road.

oops he did it again

Dj Rick played another track from "clash of the lifeforce warriors " on the most recent art for spastics and we feel all special and excited , like children whose names were mentioned on romper room.

For people into "noise-rock" , "pig fuck" , "art rock" , "scuzz garage " or just weird freaking punkrock , art for spastics is essential listening. Rick school fools on the historical roots and keeps everyone updated on the newest developments , including the most micro releases , tour cdrs/tapes and demos. he's the only person out there we know of covering this type of music with the amount of depth , care and research that makes art for spastics such a hot bookmark for no-wave fans in the know. No? YES!!

And of course , the beauty of these modern times is that folks from all over can stream or download the episodes , spreading the word far and wide. Bands are realizing they are not ALONE IN THE WORLD and are becoming best pals with other bands hundreds , thousands of miles aways. Tours get booked , split 7"s and tapes get made , and labels form and people are having the most fun they ever imagined.

We've witnessed bands more or less build carriers based on boosting from dj rick , but don't get it wrong. Dude is picky and doesn't waste time on the wonky.


The record collectors in our ranks love the fact that he'll mention the label and format of everything he plays , it's quite helpful for those who suffer from itchy paypal finger and record nerd-itis.

Now , art for spastics is on KDVS at UC Davis and they'll be having their yearly funding drive soon.

We URGE everyone with an interest in "noise rock" to donate a lil' something something in order to support the best resource our scene has. Heck , we certainly ain't getting support from print media . We also heard through the grapevine that donors will get a wicked cdr comp from the man himself.

If wishes are grated over the internet , that comp will feature a track by Wax Museums , they are a personal favorite here in the AW bunker and it on this very show we heard em for the first time. "I Eat Vomit" brought a tear to our collective glass eye. We only have one and take turns wearing it.

aids wolf + athletic automaton = bff

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

It's been a few cold and sleepy months since our collab record "AIDS Wolf v.s Athletic Automaton" has been on the shelves. It's on skingraft records in cd or gatefold vinyl formats.
info/purchase here

This project was a joy to create. Our brothers in arms , Athletic Automaton , are a constant source of inspiration . It's always fun & challenging to play and collaborate with them. We've been in love with them since the first time seeing them play in Providence in 04. On arriving back home , we got in touch , invited them to head up to Canada and all sorts of good times and chroned jams have resulted in this melting of minds.

We'll be hooking up again in the near future to bum out to the masses.

I'm not sure i can even describe how bizzare it was to play an afternoon show in a suburban basement , pretty sure the other bands were all in high school.
