| Zine: |
I've always had a blog, I just don't want to call it that. Blog is a lame word for it. However, I'm going to try to write more short articles in the style of a blog and make the interface to the "zine" more blog-like. If you want a real blog, here's one I made recently: What Cats Like. Enjoy.
I spent the fall living in Budapest. Read about it here: BP Blog
Earn It Yourself! There's a new website in town, that I've made with some friends. It has some of the features of this site (calendar, articles) combined with parts of BYOFL (band listings) plus some new really cool features, includeing a show trade tool that I think is one of the only ones out there meant to connect underground bands with one another. Check out the Beta site! EarnItYourself.com

The Unit Breed
Lost Eyes CD / DVD
Lost Eyes is a double disc CD / DVD extravaganza. This is the 5th album by The Unit Breed, and it showcases the bizarre brilliance of the band. "Lost Eyes" is 55 minutes of unsettling, dark music. The DVD contains a movie version of the CD. It's a work of unacknowledged genius, and has moments reminiscent of Sonic Youth or Fugazi, but remains unique and uncategorizable.

Trabant
Young, Reckless and Debonaire
Stripped down punk rock, conceived and recorded in the dark crannies of rural exile. Fast, cheap and out of control. The CD comes with videos and a diy guide to making CDs.
Listen: Insulation

the Girls - s/t
More stiv-bators meets the briefs from the Girls, who are all boys. That little fact is about as disappointing as learning that the little girls were all boys, but the music isn't. There's a little of the Cars' swagger in this.

Hellchild - Circulating Contradiction
Hellchild been gargling windex, and the results ain't pretty. I will be the very first to admit to being biased against metal, and while the premise for this is typically silly - some guy gargling his tonsils, the music maintains innovation and keeps me interested.
