Hot Day Tape - Mix

Another old meaningless comp. tape here. I can't recall the exact origins of this tape, but it must have been a "Hot Day", heh, and i've lost the track list and cover but by the looks of it and the fact that it has my handwriting (Comp.) and my Ex's (Hot Day Tape) i can speculate and say that this was made in the late 90's when we were still living together. It makes sense too since the A side has a lighter touch. See my ex would start these things with me and then quickly lose interest and i'd be left to my own devices, hence the way heavier side B. I know all the tunes even without the track list. Do you?

edit: ok per the comment i received i had to chop off the 1st song on the the b side of the mix because it was in fact ZZ Top's Just Got Paid & they blocked my mix. fuck it. and fuck you zz top. There is no money being made here... I used to be a fan but now you can suck it....

2nd edit: i give up..... Now devo has the b side blocked..... the 2nd song was peek a boo.... UGH! fuck the music industry....

Awesome Color - I.O.U. - Flying

As i stated in my Drunk Driver post, i am glad kids are still making noise out there and while this is nowhere near as noizey as D.D. these kids and i do mean kids (just look at them baby faces) have their own brand of noise going on.

A DJ at me old radio station turned me on to these guys. (Thanks Mike!!!) I made it a point to see them at the last SXSW and was not disappointed. There was much feedback and guitar and amp abuse. I stood right next to a Mr. J. Mascis who knows a thing or 2 about guitar rock.... I bought this 7 inch at the gig... I'll admit i am a bit behind the times when it comes to newer bands but i keep finding little gems like this hidden amongst todays "pop"ular musick,,,, and that is fine by me.

here is the 411:

The band was formed by Michigan natives Michael Troutman (aka Michael Awesome), Allison Busch (aka Allison Awesome), and Derek Stanton (aka Derek Awesome) in Brooklyn, New York, in 2004. Inspired by Detroit garage rock, they came to the attention of Thurston Moore, who signed the band to his Ecstatic Peace label. They released a self-titled debut album in 2006, which was followed by a second album, Electric Aborigines in 2008, both released by Ecstatic Peace. (Vinyl editions for both albums were released by American Dust.) The first album drew comparisons with the Stooges (with Stylus Magazine going as far as saying "there are times when you could play Fun House and this album back-to-back and not be able to tell the difference between the two") as did Electric Aborigines, although this album expanded the band's sound and drew comparisons with The Scientists and Spacemen 3. The band were described by Rolling Stone as sounding like "a grimier version of Sonic Youth". In 2007, the song ¨Hat Energy¨ from the album Awesome Color appeared in the film I Know Who Killed Me, starring Lindsay Lohan. After the second album, the band toured the world in support of Sonic Youth and Dinosaur Jr. during 2008. They recorded and released a new album called Massa Hypnos on April 6, 2010. They have been touring to promote it with Tyvek and Hair Police.
