Dj teenage wolf - nino rave by Dj Teenage Wolf

Brand new DJ Teenage Wolf jam. Hot off the hard drive.

Did I mention his upcoming single Cuerno de Sonido on Vicious Pop Digital? With remixes by Udachi and Rampage? SOON.

Some random pics.



Sick Wizard from East Moline, IL. If you can't make it out, he's holding an eagle's claw which is holding a power orb.



This one sent from tour by Sam of Catacombz with the title "Gumby's Pizza brah"

"Hide behind a wall of smoke to deflect your dirty looks..."

Pretty much everything you ever wanted from Japanther wrapped up in a pretty bow (or a screen-printed cardboard sleeve with a comic strip featuring the Wicked Witch of the West, same diff). I have no idea what the chronology is, if this is before or after RNR Ice Cream? I'd guess it's not from the same sessions, judging by the sound of it. "Divorce" is one of their most ripping trax to date, briskly paced with metal-tinged fuzz bass riffs that explode into the big obligatory chorus. "Where are we gonna sleep tonight, Dad?" Thematically "Divorce" is perfect for the band, fitting nicely between "Cable Babies" and "Fuk Tha Prince A Pull Iz Dum" in Japanther's growing cannon of grade school rebel music. Flip side "Evil Earth" has as many "who-o-oa" sing-a-long parts as you'd expect from a song that could have been titled by Glenn Danzig (that's a compliment, in case you can't tell from my internet tone), with a few "yeah, motherfuckers!" thrown in for good measure. The conclusion of the 7" is a brief accapella jam that goes:

"Men's room/If your name's Larry, Harry, it don't matter/You can get what you want and get back on the road/Truck Stop Love/Ain't nothing wrong with some Truck Stop Love/Just singing a song about some Truck Stop Love."

I hope this shows up as a full song in the future. More punk bands should write about truck stops.

Should have posted this yesterday. Nitetrotter Fest started last night and marks the end of Mixtapes (or just shows at Mixtapes? I'm not quite clear on the deats but either way, SAD) in East Moline, IL. Today Big Fun 4ever and Terrior Bute play along with like 5 billion other bands. Tomorrow is Cave and Catacombz and like 10 bazillion more.

Two singles you need:



One slow jam, one weird jam, one party jam. Opening slow jam "Lap Dog" is the jam of jams, a grinder with R&B snares popping all over the place as pianos vamp and Dog Dick future croons/falsetto raps over the top. I want a t-shirt that says "I'm a fiend for Dog Dick!"

*White Vinyl 7"*

Check out this vid of Dog Dick @ Whartscape last year, includes "Grease That I Got" at about the 8 min mark:






"Tonight I am riding the Vomit Wave!"

"New Swamp" is a the new track, a real oozer of a beast of a monster. "Vomit Wave" finally gets release on the b-side, as well as a re-do of "Shadowsss", a song originally released on the I live Like This Cuz I Like It full length.

*Green Vinyl 7"*

Both on Holy Holy Holy Records.

Also, go check out the new Sewn Leather track "Cream of the Crap" plus a bunch of other newish trax too @ myspace.com/sewnleather.

Hey so there's this massive torrent of 8 Stagediver live sets from the past 3 years called "No Magic Here" that dude's giving away for free download. Click HERE and SEED THAT SHIT.

Radio Graffiti's got some great stuff coming out soon too, including the last ever Dispyz record (green vinyl) and an amazing 7" by U.K. amigacore producer Hexadeci which features my newest favorite jam, "Swiss Yodelcore", on the b-side. You can catch a sneak peak of the track in this mix, at about 29 minutes in:



Keep your eyeballs peeled for this one it's a scorcher.
