Head Wound City

Head Wound City are a hardcore supergroup consisting of Jordan Blilie and Cody Votolato of Blood Brothers, Nick Zinner from Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and Justin Pearson and Gabe Serbian, both from The Locust and Holy Molar. Jordan does the singing. Gabe plays drums. Cody does guitar stuff. So does Nick. JP plays bass. Most everybody sings along. They’ve been in some of the bands that have burned out the backs of your eyeballs, Yeah Yeah Yeahing you into a jitter sex frenzy, Locusting your flesh down to bare white bones, and spurting Blood Brothers all over your clean white sheets. Such an awesome short lived band. They made one record, played one show and that was it. Get this record NOW!

Really awesome stuff, get all this right now then go and buy it all after you fall in love.

Black Artists Group

The Black Artists Group (BAG) was a collective of jazz musicians as well as dancers, poets, and other artists formed in St. Louis, Missouri. Their music recordings would fall under the umbrella of avant-garde and free jazz. The collective was active from 1968 until the early 70’s, but in the early 70’s they relocated to Paris, and then again to New York. After splitting up, many of the musicians were still active in the New York music scene. Three of the saxophone players (Julius Hemphill, Oliver Lake, and Hamiet Bluiett) would later form the World Saxophone Quartet.

BEAUTIFUL JAZZ

Love Life

The Baltimore quartet, Love Life, featured ex-members of Jaks, Universal Order Of Armageddon and The Great Unraveling. Their uniquely raw,  infused  often utilized odd time signatures, driving bass, multi-layered arrangements featuring organs, horns, and strings, and most notably Katrina Ford’s sinister, guttural voice and lyrics. Their sound earned them frequent comparisons to artists like The Birthday Party, Diamanda Galas, The Jesus Lizard, Swans, and early Pere Ubu. In 2004, Love Life broke up, with Katrina Ford, Sean Antanaitis, and drummer David Bergander forming the post-punk cabaret trio, Celebration, and bassist Anthony Malat going on to form Bellmer Dolls.

Musica Elettronica Viva

Musica Elettronica Viva could not be easily defined as one band. Instead, MEV was closer to a movement based around the idea of free improvisation in the form of experimental, electronic jazz. In the early ’70s, there were three different (but related) bands that went by the name: one in New York that included Richard Teitelbaum and Frederic Rzewski; one in Paris, led by Patricia and Ivan Coaquette (before his Spacecraft days); and one in Rome, founded by Alvin Curran. They were early experimenters with the use of synthesizers to transform sounds. They also used such “non-musical” objects as amplified panes of glass and olive oil cans, and their performances achieved notoriety in Italy for their ability to generate riots. Really good noise, check this stuff out if your into that kinda stuff.
