His influences include David Shrigley, Alphonse Mucha, Daniel Johnston , Edvard Munch and Henry Joseph Darger. Joe’s artwork has been showcased in many diverse locales.

He has been published in Teen Ink and the Tempe Starving Artist. You can…

    May 30, 2016 /

    The Me You Know Is A Reactionary Me Being A Burnout in the Face Of Consumerism Caleb Dawson, Corey Baum, & Jimmy Wildcat interviewed by Jay Armstrong   Our first interview of this three part series with Caleb Dawson can be found here. Part 2 – Corey Baum I hadn’t initially planned on interviewing Corey Baum but he happens to be in the yard playing what must be the worst pickup game in the history of basketball with Jeff from Banditos so I figured he wouldn’t mind sitting down over a few beers to discuss music instead. We go back and forth with the normal bs for a second before…

    May 27, 2016 /

    The Me You Know Is A Reactionary Me Being A Burnout in the Face Of Consumerism Caleb Dawson, Corey Baum, & Jimmy Wildcat interviewed by Jay Armstrong   Consumerism; the very reason art gets demolished by capitalism, the lake of fire those driven to escape by some form of creation must swim through, where wolves and sheep both come to drown themselves in the fountain of faux-youth.  You can hear the bitter gnashing of teeth throughout Austin from all the curmudgeonous post-thirty-somethings pontificating over their self-righteousness, people are upset after having escaped their shithole nowhere Trump supporting town only to have those empty-souled clones follow them out, killing the vibe…

    May 24, 2016 /

    Photo by Matt Licari   Hether Fortune’s third album American Tragic from her project Wax Idols embraces raw emotional vulnerability with powerful authority in its nine-track glory. Call it post-punk, call it goth, call it synth-pop, no matter how you spin it, Fortune entwines musical threads from a range of genres and influences to create a sound that’s uniquely intimate and feels both modern and nostalgic. From her recent divorce to working through personal health issues, Fortune also questions sexism and gender privilege in her lyrics, particularly with her track “Deborah”. In an interview with Vice, she states that “[t]his song is a big ‘fuck you’ […] specifically to straight…

    May 23, 2016 /

      In a world where fatalism and duty are the ideological approach most subscribe to about relationships it is unbelievable how rarely a film comes along which looks straight at that bleak closed way of thinking and gives us an honest diagnosis of the disease. Yorgos Lanthimos interrogates modern relationships in The Lobster with pointed brilliance as equally dark as it is hilarious. To laugh with such completeness while being intellectually challenged makes this film on par with the best of Woody Allen’s work only with more depth in the way of social construct criticism and far less whimsical. If you imagine the overall ethos of Manhattan (Jack Rollins-Charles H.…

  • Bands On Our Radar: Paper Spook

    May 17, 2016 /

      Just like kicking back with your old friend, Berlin-based duo Paper Spook like to indulge in cheap wine, fatty tofu burgers, and lots of terrible guilty pleasure TV shows. The band started playing together in 2015 and have already landed themselves a second EP entitled “Teenage Nightmare”, set to be released both digitally and on cassette tape off Wiener Records later this summer. Vocalist Juju Lund and guitarist David Nilles incorporate lo-fi drum machine beats with 70’s garage punk swagger and 60’s bubblegum-pop guitar riffs. They cite influences from The New York Dolls to Blondie and garner inspiration from their city’s ever incessant electronic vibes. Their newest single, “I Wanna…

    May 12, 2016 /

    There’s been an influx of some extremely talented, up and coming bands pouring in from San Marcos, Texas. Fuzz garage-rock trio The Two Lips caught our eyes (and ears) after witnessing their work with Spoon’s very own Britt Daniels for their new single, “Repeat”. The opportunity arose during this year’s SXSW Festival where they had the opportunity to be mentored by and discuss ideas with Daniels and record a track in Converse Rubber Tracks’ professional recording studio. Take a look at the band’s experience captured on video below.   [embedyt]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izP4yg8PShY[/embedyt] Facebook || Instagram || Twitter

      We all arrive to this open field in messy, unkempt suits, the sun long since set. None of us can fully express the feelings we have in the pit of our stomachs. The orange color illuminates the stage which we have set for ourselves, whose source are the three or four incandescent safety lights that turn on autonomously after night has fallen. This field resides at the park, in the no name city where we all grew up, whose name only rings familiar to the residents who have had the misfortune of calling it their home. There is a haze from the mid-summer humidity of the day gone by…

    Living in Oakland there might seem to be far more bands than necessary swinging from the same complacent rock ‘n’ roll vine, for the rest of us around the world though, our thirst cannot be quenched for the talent and sound that area consistently offers up to us. Pookie and the Poodlez has remained strictly in the peripheral for a significant amount of time now, somehow more by proxy than by personal experience Trevor Straub has been a part of our collective awareness, be it through making noise with Nobunny to just being attached to rad bills at our favorite spots over and over again, his presence on and off…

    Words by: Trish Connelly Photography: Raphael Umscheid  ( Instagram )   Emotions were at an all time high this weekend after the cancellation of Levitation Fest in Austin, Texas, with less than 24 hours notice. Was this some kind of cruel joke? Can I get a refund on my round-trip plane tickets from Norway? Despite the chaos that ensued, the majority of the festival-goers made the most of it by attending rescheduled sets at local venues downtown and did their best to nab a couple online tickets to bigger headliner sets while they could. On a high note, the scheduled pre-Levitation shows set to go down on Thursday, April 28th…
