BATTLE-SCARRED ARTIFACTS FROM THE HEYDAY OF AMERICAN HARDCORE.

PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on the now over 40-year-old skate deck from the private collection of Andy Rose, author of "There's Something Hard in There" blogspot, a relic of his teenage hardcore punk past.

"I was no Z-Boy, that's for sure. Not even close, man.

Alva, Adams, Peralta and the others would have laughed me out of town.

However, I could get my skateboard going at my own pace and have a blast while riding The Strand along Hermosa, Manhattan and Redondo as a youngster. My friend Sean and I "bombed" the mammoth hills by my home in Redondo without flinching (well, maybe a little bit at first). I couldn't ride the ramps as well as my buddy Brian or shred the bowls like the ragers at Skateboard World in Torrance, but who cares?

Skating for me was something to do during those Southern California summers, and it usually involved music, as well: everything from BOSTON to ZEPPELIN to BLACK FLAG to MINOR THREAT. You can't beat that."

Fugazi, Blue Note, Columbia, MO USA 8/27/1993 (FLS #0570)

Fugazi’s 1993 tour arguably captures the band at its absolute prime. The band was locked in, fierce, and still carrying some of that underground bite. This August 27th show at the Blue Note in Columbia, Missouri, is a case in point. Just glance at the first eight songs, and it’s clear they hit the stage with force, seizing the crowd by the throat and charging through the set with relentless energy.

The performance is raw, intense, and unapologetic. While the recording is a little rough around the edges, that only adds to the power of the show, feeding off the confrontational vibe of the night. The vocals start off low in the mix, especially in the first couple of songs, but balance out as the gig gains momentum.

The recording documents a strong performance overall. Memorable highlights include a bone-crushing rendering of Reprovisional to open the set, the one-two punch of Instrument into Sieve-Fisted Find, the dual guitar interplay and jam on Promises, and a drawn-out build-up and extended outro of Sweet and Low that stretches into the night on the subtle rim clicks of Brendan’s snare drum.

The setlist packs 20 songs, with In On The Kill Taker front and center with no less than nine tracks. Five tracks come from Repeater, three from Steady Diet of Nothing, two from the 7 Songs EP, and just one from the Margin Walker EP. This show is pure Fugazi intensity at its best.

For some more information, check-out Antti's elaborate write-up of this gig in the comments section via the show hyperlink above.

I'd never heard of Autoclave, although I certainly heard of Mary Timony, Slant 6, The Casual Dots, and Ex Hex - all associated with Autoclave. I learned about the band through the Bandcamp article on Christina Billotte.

This sounds like the 90s - it seems like Autoclave should have played at the International Pop Underground Festival in Olympia - I mean, many of their friends including Fugazi and Nation of Ulysses did. This sounds like the perfect collaboration between Dischord and K Records (which the first Autoclave 7" was). The 7" is reasonably priced on Discogs. Let's hope Dischord will reissue this compilation (last reissued on vinyl in 2019).

About 2 years BB (before blog), I bought this self-titled release from Washington D.C. based band Deathfix. I remember reading the review in Pitchfork and listening to "Better Than Bad" and being hooked. 2012 was a time when I was rediscovering power pop - The Raspberries, The Toms and Gentleman Jesse were all favorites at the time.

And while Deathfix (a collaboration between Brendan Canty of Fugazi and Rich Morel, a touring guitarist with Bob Mould) does have powerpop sensibilities throughout, it can be a bit darker. Pitchfork mentioned Deep Purple crossed with Big Star.

This was released on Dischord, and remains one of my favorite albums of the the 2000s.

Twitter X, Threads & My Take on Social Media Best Suited for Photographers

by Johnny Martyr I don’t know about you, but I am not really all that concerned about the controversial rebranding of social media platform Twitter to simply, X. If you’ll notice, I have never even embedded a clickable Twitter icon to my posts or website, so there’s nothing to change on my side! But what social media platforms are best suited for sharing ones photography anyway? While my…
