AFS v. 378 ~ Do Call it a Comeback...

I’ve been gone for months!!!

My baby girl Una at 18 months is getting hella-radical as you can see.

Thanks to Jeffrey for letting me to sub his "Today’s Aberration, Tomorrow’s Fashion" program on October 27! And thanks to everyone who was involved in resurrecting the KDVS archives to include programs that happened while the archive was on the blink!

On this edition of AFS…
* Oh, y’know…The typical progression from punk to weirdness
* Valiant attempts to pronounce Occitan song titles
* Pointedly political messages

The KDVS archive currently has a bit of an overmodulated crispy crackle to it, but it’s not quite as crispity and crackly as a High Rise recording, so it’s listenable enough to me. Maybe turn the volume down a little bit. No big whoop. (They’re working on it, but we’re just happy to have the archive back.) Also, pardon my rust, but I think I did mostly pretty good if I do say so myself.

 ***  Motörhead cover

Every time I see two not-quite-symmetrical "POWER OF PRIDE" bumper stickers of the back of a blue-smoke-burning Ford Windstar or some such domestic crapmoble with the rippling red stripes faded off almost completely, I get an ever-increasing sense of how hollow a statement that was for the driver to make. That's all I'm saying with that title.

Anyway,...

Seriously, HC is in such good hands with today's youth, see?



And in further mutated tangents...

Maybe we won't wait forever to do this again! We had fun.

Some things haven't changed since I gave up the regular gig. The pipeline of Aussie jams has remained continually primed, and this podcast contain five prime cuts of vinyl from Oz. SS remains an infallible hitmachine. Memphis is still the best rockin' landlocked place in the USA.

CCR Headcleaner delivers the most premium knuckledragging scuzzpunk devastation of the night, gnarling up gutpunch riffs and perfectly encapsulating the paradoxical plight of being the life of the party.

And the dreamiest swoony croon you'll hear here is not from the swansong by Peter Jefferies, but by Rob from Eat Skull who is charmingly emoting his ass off with real beauty. Eat Skull has joined the rare pantheon of bands who've made three great first albums that have gotten better and better with each release.

Ghastly Spats takes the cake as tonight's band I most wish I'd started. I could totally play drums at least as good. Maybe even guitar, too. Probably not as clever as these guys and gals, though. They work the crude angles brilliantly, and this may be the most thoroughly satisfying low-brow/no-brow 7" with > 4 songs since Kill the Hippies dropped Will Not Overstimulate.

Sorry to keep you waiting on a pulse-check of our record collection. We've been keeping up quite well still, but also finding time to spend exciting weekends in places like Redding, Fresno, and Bakersfield to take pictures of old roadside weirdness, peeling paint, neon signs, graffiti, and trash.
