San Francisco Treats

San Fran is having a little music scene going on. These bands seemed to be garage rock informed but with a thick layer of reverb smeared everywhere. Here are some of the highlights. Is it gonna get a buzz worthy name?

Schizo

Richard Pinhas's (of Heldon fame) experimental French rock band Schizo. They released this 7'ncher and dats it! Sounds like a weirder, funkier, Hawkwind. Supa cool!



Bob Seger System - 2+2

Who knew boring ass Bob Seger wrote a badass garage rock Vietnam protest song. Fantastic!

Purling Hiss


Purling Hiss, a Philly psych band, is the side project of Michael Polizze of Birds of Maya and will melt your face off while its doing your woman, man. With two albums under his belt, Purling Hiss is quickly becoming one of my favorite bands and feels like a middle finger to the "beats and keyboards" indie world that seems to never want to be anything but of the moment.
Purling Hiss's debut album bashes your ear holes with enough crunchy, searing, hot metal, guitar jams that they may just melt off in the ensuing chaos. With songs like "Almost Washed My Hair" your speakers bleed! Its the sonic equivalent of a nasty scrape on your knee when you wreck your bike and your mom makes you take a bath. That shit STINGS. Do you get out of the tub? No! You endure it you sadomasochistic fuck!
With so much white hot guitar soloing all over this album, its as if Iggy Pop said to James Williamson during the recording of the Raw Power album " Keep playing that same riff till your fingers fall off, you monkey" and than yelped through delays like a horny mutant. This is raw, dirty, grimy, with a thick layer of sleaze and man do I love it.
Their second album, "Public Service Announcement" is just as good and seems slightly informed by fellow Phillybilly Kurt Vile. Things have been tuned down a bit but still remain vibrant and energetic but now Mr. Polizze has discovered melody. Oh how sweet it is! "Run from the City" is classic rock recorded through broken speakers à la Ariel Pink. In fact the whole album has an Ariel Pink feel to it due to the lofi nature of the recording. The endless phased guitars on"Porch Dude/Slight Return" make for pleasant headphone tripping and " Don't Even Try it" sounds like warbled AM radio pop bliss. "Malice in Wonderland" is Les Rallizes Denudes on downers. Dirgy, phased, distorted guitars to the max, this beast takes you to the 7th layer of hell and leaves you there. The closer " 1976" is an awesome keyboard wasteland with distant drums and a pulsating bassline. Sounds like Radio 4 off of Pil's Metal Box , recorded on a warped cassette tape.
With these two brilliant and diverse records Purling Hiss is setting itself up to be quite a contender in the limp indie rock world. This music has balls and will show them to you.

Screaming Females - I Don't Mind it

Yeah, yeah. I just saw this on Pitchfork. Whatever. But man, Screaming Females, what an awesome find you are! Instantly stuck in my head. Kinda like late 80's early 90's indie rock that hasn't shaken off its post punk roots. Love that bass line digging into the back of my skull, the searing guitar line and the Siouxsie like vocals. Check out this release!

BLANCHE BLANCHE BLANCHE - Talk Loud

Add BLANCHE BLANCHE BLANCHE to bands I''ll be following. This video freaks me out with its fuzzy floating heads against the black void of a broken T.V. trying desperately to get the proper channel out of its long broken rabbit ear antennas. Dig that weirdo, synth, lofi, sound! Reminds me a bit of CCCandy with female vocals. They're releasing a 7'ncher, so ya'll better get that shit before its gone!

Actroid-F

Mark this post as the beginning of the end for humanity as we know it. The Great Robot wars are upon us!



Jesus, look at it blink! Am I the only one that thinks this isn't such a great idea?

MOON UNIT



Crunchy Ash Ra Temple jams? YES PLEASE! Do your self a fucking favor and pick up Moon Unit's two AMAZING albums: New Sky Dragon and the new one Hell Horse and Heady Stratus.
They will blow you away with their Krautrock infused noise jams that fly off into the deepest parts of the universe. Lose yourself in yourself to blissed out guitar noise, drool inducing keyboard drones and deliciously frantic drumming. I've got these two babies on vinyl and i'm loving every minute of them!
