Dream Damage, Live »

Portland, Oregon has its fair share of amazing bands, but none of them really excite me more than EAT SKULL. So when our good friends at Bedroom Suck Records announced that they are bringing Eat Skull all they way from the US of A to Australia in April. I went fucking bananas. They are touring nationally down the east coast and will be playing in Canberra on the 12th of April at The Phoenix (it stinks I know) for an early(ish) Sunday show. Also playing will be Brisbane’s Slug Guts, who have just released a new record out on US label Sacred Bones, and on Bedroom Suck too, rad! More info at the FACEBOOK EVENT.

Live »

Zack Kouns is from some small town in the US. He plays music with voice, tenor and alto saxophone, clarinet, trumpet, temple blocks, chinese opera gong, tape manipulation, violin, banjo. It’s weird shit, some dark neofolky gothic shit, some totally fucked up noise, some angular no-wavey shit, some Leadbellyesque blues and Woody Guthrie folk, some beautiful piano ballads, and plenty of free jazz all through it. He exists in a realm somewhere near Jandek, I suppose – completely outside of everything, and basically impossible to compare to everything. You can download one of his whole albums free here(Cut and paste straight from the mouth of Alps aka Chris Hearn)

Zack Kouns will be touring the country with Alps as support over the next few weeks. They will be ending the tour in Canberra at Smiths Alternative Bookstore on Saturday the 31st so come along and pick up a copy of the tour 7″.
