Circle

I saw Circle once. I’ll say two things about that show: the bass player ripped off his shirt WHILE he continued to shred and it was one of the best lives shows I’ve seen.
A couple live performances from Circle below…

Skull Control

Head over to Chunklet for some long lost Skull Control tunes:

So what we have here is a tape that I thought was a blank from the Chris Thomson tape dump of ‘09. And yes, the a-side was blank, but I flipped it over to find that it was a practice session by Skull Kontrol which was Chris’s band with his then-wife Kim and Brooks from Born Against. And yeah, it would be cool enough if it was just the short-lived band blasting thru the tracks on their two Touch & Go EPs on a boombox at their practice space, but no, it’s far more than that.

Morbid Anatomy

One of my favorite blogs… Morbid Anatomy is an “eye opening look at the intersection of art, medicine, death and culture”.
