SPRAY PAINT’s two 45s from 2012 were so hard to track down online – both in physical and digital formats – that the only way I’d heard this song, “Spock Fingers”, from their second single was on a radio show podcast (not mine). Today their new album hit the digital shelves, and the problem is rectified. I’m planning on listening to it on the drive home today, and will provide a full scene report on it posthaste (i.e after the weekend).

Exciting news to kick February off in fine style. One of the globe’s most smoking bands, Austin’s SPRAY PAINT, released their new album today – and for those of you who (unlike me) weren’t willing to pay through the nose for their two out-of-print and extremely limited 45s – you can now download both the new album and both singles for $9.99 on iTunes. I just did.

Naturally, there are still options available for vinyl and even CD lovers. 

SPRAY PAINT are a frantic, noisy, jittery, minimalist art/splatter/punk band who incorporate elements of The A-Frames, Urinals/100 Flowers, Minutemen and – of course – much of their own bag. I suspect that now than more than 300 people at a time can hear them, they’ll make more of the proverbial splash than they did this past year. Top up that iTunes account and check it out here.

Happy New Year, and hello there ladies and gentlemen. Hung over? Nothing to do today? Howsabout streaming or downloading my music podcast DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE RADIO right about now? This is the 3rd edition in almost as many weeks. Not sure I can keep up that sort of breakneck pace, but here’s hoping.

This edition, recorded on the last day of 2012, forgoes any sort of best-of-the-year malarkey, and instead plays a mix of the new and the old. Mostly the old. The back-announce parts were recorded while I had a gnarly cold, which I still have, and on a brand-new microphone that I suspect doesn’t add a whole lot to the proceedings, but which made me feel like an important radio disc jockey in any case.

If you missed the first show or the second show, please click on the links to grab’ em! And then download Dynamite Hemorrhage Radio #3 and lemme know which songs most made you want to stage dive and get into fistfights.

DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE RADIO PODCAST #1

Well, that wasn’t so difficult. I’ve created the first of what will hopefully a regular series of 60-minute “radio shows” under the DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE brand name, and all things considered (like, I had zero idea how to use the GarageBand software I created this in last night even 24 hours ago), it turned out pretty much all right.

My aim with this thing is to create playlists of music that I like & that you wanna hear; you might just not know it yet. You’ll find clusters of music that slot loosely into underground pop; classic punk; weird psych/noise; 60s garage, pop and girls-in-the-garage; proto-punk; bedroom DIY recordings and even a little undie rock. 

I personally have not hosted a radio show in which I talk, “back announce” etc. in over 22 years – proving not only how ancient I am personally, but how rusty my on-mic skills are, which is all too apparent in this first radio show/podcast. You’ll even hear the local dogs barking in the neighbor’s backyard during one segment. My goal is to keep these to a digestible hour in length when I make them, and to not worry so much about flubs & various vocal tics and bad habits that make up my radio persona. In other words, the first take will always be the only take, and I’ll try to do better next show, OK?

With that in mind, let me state for the record that the band Bette Davis & The Balconettes were a late 90s band, not a late 80s act as claimed on Dynamite Hemorrhage Radio #1.


Dynamite Hemorrhage Radio #1 Tracks:

Rondelles – Indication

Hank Wood and the Hammerheads– It’s Murder

King Tuff – Bad Thing

Tea Cozies – Muchos Dracula

Red Cross – Tatum O’Tot and The Fried Vegetables

Desperate Bicycles – Handlebars

The Lamps – An Irrational Fear of Sailors

White Fence – Swagger Vets & Double Moon

One of the more phenomenal new bands of the last year is Austin, TX’s SPRAY PAINT. To date they’ve put out two 45s of minimalist, splattering art punk that follow and expand upon the Urinals/A-Frames model. This one’s “Pro Knife” from the first of the two singles, and came out last year.

You might want to take a listen to the full 20-minute radio show set that Austin, TX’s SPRAY PAINT played on KDVS-Davis, CA last month. Courtesy of the always right-on DJ Rick from Art For Spastics, this set and accompanying interview show off this spazz-hot art punk band as their two 45s do, just with more songs and in the “live environment”. I’d peg Spray Paint as a minimalist but relatively free take on first couple-EPs Minutemen, mixed with some mid-80s balled-up tension rock like Phantom Tollbooth, Breaking Circus, Tripod Jimmie and that ilk. Spectacular, dynamic stuff & worth the DL.
