Evil-sounding shit
By
webteam
photo by
Mikael Kennedy
That’s Nat Voghlan from
Transistor Transistor
posed in the Danziggy alley mugshot by buddy
Mikael Kennedy
. Kennedy, who used to squat in the
Royal Street
closet of
TT
's Brad Wallace, snapped all the
grainy, B&W photos
for TT’s recent
Erase All Name and Likeness
(
Level-Plane
), a record our OTD bretheren
reports
is “some frantic, electrifying, pulverizing, evil-sounding shit.

The most punctual emcee ever
By
webteam
Image from
here
1. Overzealous door dudes at the Middle East last night stole some of OTD's pens, for fear the
Pitchfork
nerds homie-ing out under BoSox hats
would
blog
each
others
' eyes out. So the details about the
Dizzee Rascal
show might be a little sketchy. One thing we couldn't forget, though, is that when the grimey limey says
Showtime
, he means
showtime
: Dyl was onstage right at 10:15, bouncing around with his name on his shirt.

Dizzee: the day after
By
webteam
More soon on last night's
Rascality
; in the meantime, photos and highlights over at
Chris Lemon-Red
.
You've seen Oliver Mak's
stuff
on the walls at Great Scott, and a few of you might've caught his Bangers N Mash night at ZuZu. This Friday night he's back at ZuZu for one-night-only crunktastica and grimeyness, now that Dizzee whet yr whistles.

Mother Foulker
By
webteam
Closing time.
1. Above graphic is for
real
, for real: the boys down in the Square have brought the
hardcore
tee heat yet
again
. Available in limited quantities, only in Kenmore, only on game night. Thought I was gonna get the inside scoop last night on how Keith ended up coming out to
"Mother,"
but somehow that story didn't quite get told.

1. Go ahead and groan, but these kids have been around for a
minute
, and what with
outsourcing
and all, we always get
patriotic-like
when some
fashionable
American
band
capitalizes on all the hard work (and hard rock) that our
Swedish
bretheren
have suffered through all these years.

Throw the Killswitch

Killswitch Engage
1.
John MacLean
abducted by aliens! Made of tinfoil pie-plates! Who want to get to second base! And he's not exactly against the idea! Go
here
, and click on "video."
2. Killswitch on Kimmel?!
Mmm-hmm
. But will Mike D (no, not
that Mike D
) be back in time? Oddly, Kimmel site says show's airing last night, though band's peeps say tonight.

Mary gets her Wednesday on.
The new
M. Timony
reminds us of that enormous crush we had on homegirl back in
The Dirt of Luck
days: she totally beat
all
these
type
people
to the video-game indie-pop hustle with a little masterpiece called
"Superball."
New empeethree right here to get you stoked for her show tonight over at

Hello, darkness
By

Balls deep.
Hellacopter
-itis: the condition that results when Scandinavian band is finally, after years of genius, in the right place at the right time, with huge American label support, and delivers the most boring album of its career. (See
"Grande Rock",
also "
Scandinavian Leather
.") Then, just when you've got done apologizing for them, they return to genius -- too late, of course, for any of your friends to believe you.

Crash and Burn

Guillotine a punk for rock n roll.
"This record makes our first record sound like our second record!" -- Bill
Crash and Burn
True: having ditched the doom-metal/sludge-punk of
Sick Again
, they're back to the
"Kill a Punk"
days, and then some: immense, evil, brutal. The Guns N Roses album Black Flag never made?

Decline of Western Civilization IV: The Roadsteamer Years
By
webteam
In light of
recent developments
, we offer this recap of classic Road Steamage:
1. Dave Pino's
Crank Yankers
-style
puppet show
(all three open in Windows Media) that started it all.
2. "
We don't need to practice
. The Marvels . . . the Marvels need to practice."
3. When the
strength of a thousand rhinos
is almost, but not quite, enough . . .

Boston beatdown: bravery edition
By
webteam
Note to Rucker: if you're going to call your editor up all frantic, like, "30 dudes beat up the [insert trendy breakout band here] in front of [insert bar that everybody goes to here] last night," please let it turn out better than
the bass player getting drunk and throwing a hissy
.

Converge
By
webteam
"We just got back from playing 36 straight nights in Europe."
"With the exchange rate, that's like 93 straight nights."
"Right, and along with bubonic plague we also brought back a case of really bad humor."
Best Music Poll '04 metal/hardcore winners and
'05 nominees
killed it at Harpers Ferry on Saturday. Bannon's for-self rant ramping up to
"The Saddest Day"
(video link) had even us cynical rock-crit bastards feeling all posi and righteous and shit.
