AFS v. 227 ~ feat. Orange Coax!

This week's special in-studio guest came all the way from Denton, Texas...Orange Coax! On the strength of a cassette tape, they embarked on their first interstate tour. With so little fanfare surrounding them, I wasn't able to get them in front of a real audience here in Sacto or Davis, but they graciously visited us here at Freeform KDVS to play a sweltering live set in Studio A, and then picking all the records in the last hour. This band joins Druid Perfume and The Careerers among the handful of today's punk bands to prominently feature a saxophone on every song, and they might be the only such band which is actually only a saxophonist plus drums and vocals...no guitars of any kind. Their chattery clattery rhythms relentlessly ride the 16ths, chopped up only by spazzy variances. Sasha's bold agitpunk voice often brings to mind Katrin of The Ex at her most urgent (think "Tightly Stretched" from Joggers & Smoggers), but it's a little bit betrayed here as her vocal chords were a little bit road-weary....still a solid performance! Don't miss this band the next time around...they're really fun! And keep your eyes peeled for vinyl records on the horizon. Watch for more info on this band here...
