It’s going on three years old now, and lord knows what happened to this Brighton, UK band in the interim since they made their 2011 demo tape, but a great recent discovery for me (thanks Modraucous) are THE IRREPARABLES.

The band’s mix of Shaggs/Desperate Bicycles simplicity with some hot spit and vigor makes for a pretty intoxicating mix of DIY splatter, as you’ll no doubt hear on this track, “Digested System”.

Unlike my usual pattern, I happen to like the dude singer’s stuff far more than the woman’s. This time.

Following other stellar. top-to-bottom excellent pure-pop LPs I’ve totally fallen for this year by Veronica Falls and La Luz, the debut LP “Floristry” from Dunedin, New Zealand’s TRICK MAMMOTH is my new saccharine ringer.

I’m not sure if it’s more first-LP Teenage Fanclub or entire-career Look Blue Go Purple but their record’s absolutely worth a pickup if any of the aforementioned get your proverbial motor running. Meanwhile, here’s a video of the band live in NZ.

After listening to this 2-hour all-Velvet Underground podcast, featuring Jonathan Richman reminiscing about the band, I realized I really need to be regularly listening to more Velvet Underground live shows than I currently am. My Velvets bootleg accumulation phase really peaked around 2004 or so, at the height of the CD-burning era.

Here are a few I’ve got (except “Take A Trip” – have never seen that one). There are at least two dozen more that are amazing, and more beyond that which I’ve never heard.

UPSETTER fanzine #2, 1978. This was put together in Los Angeles by Chris D. (Flesh Eaters), Judith Bell and Exene Cervenka.

You can read all about it in Dynamite Hemorrhage print fanzine #1.

I was surprised during my interview with Chris D. in said fanzine that Upsetter even existed in magazine form, and if you happen to have a copy you could “loan” me, that’d be real great.

(By the way, this image and many other fanzine stunners can be found at Ryan Richardson’s excellent Fanzine Faves – check it out).

One of the best UK punk songs ever gets a workover (not really, more of a tribute) by noisy moderne C86 UK band THE FIREWORKS, whom we’ve written about here and in the mag before. If you move fast, you can reserve your space to buy this thing as a flexi (!).

This one explores the recent “Punk 45: Kill The Hippies etc.” compilation that Soul Jazz put out; doses out a 15-minute krautrock classic; includes some wild DIY stuff from bands with names like Pissy Relay Switches, Occult Chemistry and Bona Dish; and unveils some pretty stellar new stuff from WET BLANKETS, AUSMUTEANS, PANG, VELO, TRAMPOLINE TEAM and more. More on-“mic” shucking and jiving than usual, too.
