You guys heard THE WIMPS yet? I’m pretty new to the cut of their jib, but I like what I hear. This song, “Slept In Late”, kicks off their debut LP “Repeat”.
Other parts of the record are more, uh, “angular” and have a wiry post-punk yet very snotty feel to them. Punkers. We love ‘em.
THE FLESH EATERS and friends in Los Angeles, would have been about 1982 or so.
I believe “Loup Garou” were a spinoff of Australia’s LIPSTICK KILLERS, who had moved to LA, but someone may need to check that for me. You can hear Chris D repeat those words – that band name – at the end of the song “Divine Horsemen”.

The Pedestrians – Looking Out My Window
INTERNATIONAL STRIKE FORCE were a late 90s UK band who grew out of the recently-disbanded Golden Starlet; while not all their stuff’s top drawer, I’m all-in on the best of their noisy, crazed low-budget art/punk jams, with lackadaisical upper-crust vocals and lyrics.

For years I’ve been feverishly looking for a song about women and electronics in the kitchen that can match Dow Jones & The Industrials’ amazing “Ladies With Appliances”. Now I’ve found that song, courtesy of this 1979 minimalist brain-buzzer from Philadelphia’s CRASH COURSE IN SCIENCE called “Kitchen Motors”.
THE GERMS evolve and win friends – review from RAW POWER #5 fanzine in 1978, as scanned and written about in the excellent Waitekere Walks blog this week.
HACKAMORE BRICK “Oh! Those Sweet Bananas” 45 out now!
Totally agree that this should have been their 45. Forty years later, a wrong has been righted.
Awesome 1981 primal pound from Australia’s THE MOODISTS, treading very much in Scientists/Birthday Party territory without the screech of the former and the chaos of the latter.
“I Should Have Been There” is the B-side to their first 45, which came out on Au-Go-Go back when the world was young.
AGONY SHORTHAND 
At least We, The Cheaterslicks from the UK play on the Hotrod scene and choose the name out of respect for a Car/Music/Lifestyle scene within which we are all heavily involved. We did not know of Cheater Slicks – USA for several years until they and…
