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.

Several weeks ago I posted a moderately embarrassing June 1989 radio show that I did for KCSB-FM in Santa Barbara, CA called “White Trash”. It was my last show ever – on that station, anyway – and therefore was the culmination of four years of training, teenage toil and practice.  

Now let’s go back in time over two years, to April 22nd, 1987. I’m 19 years old; I’m snarky; I’m fast-talkin’, and I’m absolutely lovin’ the noisy late 80s indie rock. This show features paranoia about an impending crackdown on what records we’re allowed to play on the station, all thanks to a minor censorship kerfuffle that was erupting that year in which the FCC gave our station a warning for playing punk rock music with naughty words. You can read the LA Times story on the incident here. My repeated paranoia about impending censorship doom during this show’s 90 minutes are testament to the limited scope and worldview, political myopia, and the affluenza common to UC-Santa Barbara students who come from nice families.

Download the 4-22-1987 show of KCSB’s “White Trash” right here, and you’ll hear gems from Pussy Galore, Squirrel Bait, Naked Raygun, Soul Asylum, Bad Brains, Redd Kross, Phantom Tollbooth, Adrenaline O.D., The Flesh Eaters, and much more.

DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE RADIO PODCAST #5 is here….

It’s another week, it’s another DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE RADIO PODCAST. This is the fifth edition of the show, just over an hour of spastic art, jittery pop, wiry punk, doofus garage and bombastic hard-n-heavy rocknroll. I’m your host, I’m afraid. The show is recorded direct-to-laptop in a 10×10 room in San Francisco, California. It’s, like, almost a real radio show and stuff. You can download or stream it, and scroll down after the track listing here and please download the other 4 shows while you’re at it. “Your ears will thank you”.
