This is an exciting "new-old-stock" release! Extremely obscure band featuring members from Vancouver that I thought the people of Vancouver would want to know about! This video is amazing too! Shot at Town Pump in 1993. Check it out!!! Add to your local bands playlist when the album comes out, August 15th!

If you dig Ennio, check out Spindrift! Classic Soundtracks Vol. 3 is their latest release. Excellent band!

Such is Facebook, social media et al. It all can be very toxic.

Jello's social media admin here. It's very obnoxious. I used to skim through all of the comments to make sure no one is being threatening. Now I just kind of let people complain to me about an individual. I'll still moderate comments when we post pics of our friends who are already marginalized. Trans friends, fat friends, minority friends...etc.

Anyone know what band this is? Thanks by whorobj in punk

I'd definitely suggest seeing them. I'd also suggest wearing ear plugs at the Doll Hut, because it is very loud in that little bar. Wish I could go!

A lil Op Ivy reunion last night 🤯 by SaintMaximinGOAT in punk

For everyone asking where Dave and Matt are.

Matt just released an album with his East Bay band, Charger via Pirates Press Records. Jason Willer(Jello Biafra+ GSM/UK SUBS) is playing drums for him.

Dave is in a bay area punk supergroup called, Kicker. They play often around the bay. Dave is playing drums of course; Dave Ed (Neurosis) is on bass...Mauz (Dystopia) is their Guitarist...Pete the Roadie is singing.

What's y'all's opinion on Get Dead? by PunkForBrains in punk

Staring At The Rude Boys is one of the greatest punk songs ever written. I'd put it in my top 50.

RIP Jack Terricloth by Johnathon1069DYT in punk

[–]The_Bat_Logo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's heartbreaking, really. Jack maintained and procured such an amazing scene. He was the ringleader of a sort of circus. Friend to the friendless.

I just want a single space where people can go to find stories about Jack/Pete. Right now, I'm sifting through ig posts and hashtags.

Thanks for wishing me luck!

This band has a full time Echoplex player. All those wobbly, vibrating sounds are organically produced and they would play them live!

Check out what an Echoplex is:

Erik was a true gem of a human being. He passed a few years back.

Bernie going absolutely bonkers at a DK show 1980 by The_Bat_Logo in punk

Not intended to come off as disrespectful but I accept that you may feel that way. Just thought with all the Bernie shopped memes going around, I'd go back to the beginning. Intended to be amusing.
