Oct 28 : "Keg Party" - Slothrust (Brooklyn)

New Music / Freshly Written & Recently Rleased (May 2012)

Last week I went to see The Silence Kit perform at Kung Fu Necktie. One of the openers was Brooklyn band "Slothrust". I was completely unfamiliar with them. I enjoyed watching their show and listening to their webpage.

Here is a sample of their music, playing right here on my blog page: "Keg Party" :::

Oct 25 : "Image Game" - Lite (Tokyo)

Sometimes I just need to go out. I don't want to fall into the depths of music withdrawal, so I'll decide to go out to hear some sounds even if none of my favorite bands happen to be playing that night.

Such was one night a couple weeks ago when I headed up to North Star to check out some outfits that I had never heard before. One band was "Lite", a rock band on tour from Tokyo. I liked their show and got one of their t-shirts. (black shirt with geometric design / my favorite)

I probably tend to favor the music on their page, which shows a lot more versatility than what I saw in the live show. Here's a sample, the track, "Image Game", ===========================================

Oct 08 : "Superbored SLMFK!!!" - Music For Headphones (Philly)

Philly Music!

THE LAST PART?

In looking through my notes I see that I've seen Philly band "Music For Headphones" five times, or parts of five times to be more correct. My spotty attendance at their shows is due to random happenings including some strange confluences with SEPTA. As in this past Saturday night, SEPTA got me there a little after they had started.... So I've never heard one of their entire shows.

But with that limited and spotty experience in seeing their work live, I can still definitely say that their show at Kung Fu Necktie Saturday night was the best I've seen. It was a bittersweet experience. While they were in top form and playing to a crowded room, they made the announcement that this was their "final show". The announcements both at the show and in print have been a little vague as to whether this was their last show ever or whether this was their last show before an extended hiatus. I guess only time will tell.

Music For Headphones has quite a library of music posted on their page. Here's a sample from their "Life.In.Mono" album, "Superbored SLMFK!!!", playing right here on my blog page :::
