AFS v. 215 ~ feat The Homosexuals (for real this time!)


At last (!), Freeform KDVS have got the mp3 archive back online, so I've decided to replay that live set which The Homosexuals featuring the irrepressible Bruno Wizard recorded here in Studio A on Tuesday, March 23. It starts at the halfway point of this two-hour podcast if you don't have the patience to try some new music on for size. Read all about The Homosexuals' miraculous last-minute Davis house-show in AFS v. 214.

Here's a special dedication to Jared, who spreads the freeform radio disease at KRCL in Salt Lake City, Utah, and leads a cool band called Kidneys. Some time ago, I told this Massacre Guys fan that my favorite moment of Utah punk history was this little-known band called L.D.S. who released the On the Cross 7" in 1985 and an LP around the same time. It may be fairly generic slop-thrash, but its irreverence and blasphemy sounds pretty revolutionary given the time and location that these boys toiled in. This record was lost in limbo for a while until the "L" shelves were realphabetized here. As you can see, our copy is well-worn.



The L.D.S. LP had a few deathrock flirtations if memory serves me. I could kick myself for selling it back in 2001 when I jettisoned nearly my entire vinyl collection for quick cash after I became a casualty of the dot-com bust. Can anyone help me replace it? Surely, it's a record that few people care about....You'd probably be lucky to get $5 for it. I'll give you $10 at least, even if it's just a VG copy. I'm not a stickler. I just want it to be playable. THANKS! ***UPDATE***...Nevermind! I just nabbed a BuyItNow copy on eBay for $7!

haven't heard em (apparently my internet connection's not good enough to download this) but it's a pretty great name for a utah punk band.

ha, did someone really request the blunt instrumental?

Someone from Spain did say "Please play something from that cassette!"

Mike, the bass dude in the homosexuals is sick. Fuck, his playing is huge! Thanks for posting the tracks.

Great stuff. Yes, Mike is kind of awesome. Watching him is a sort of zen-like experience.
