My old pal David Koslowski has been working on this Alice Donut documentary with Skizz Cyzyk for the past year or so called Freaks In Love . Here's the very exciting trailer with Jello Biafra, Martin Bisi, Kirk Kirkwood, Greg Werckman, some live footage and band interviews. I had the pleasure of seeing this psychedelic punk band a few times when they were on Alternative Tentacles. One notable time they were one of the highest paid bands to ever play the Court Tavern. Another time they drew like ass and the bar ate it but [...]
I caught Alice Donut , an early nineties California based punk/psychedelic band, while on a tour in 2009. I always thought of Alice Donut as an interesting anomaly of what was going on as far as contemporary-of-the-time punk bands were concerned. I also associate Alice Donut , correctly or not, as a proto- Janes Addiction - probably not so much in sound but because they were a similarly interesting departure from what was considered 'punk' at the time. Whatever the case, Alice Donut are still at it and [...]

I've always tried to group my records by style or genre rather than alphabetically by title or artist. This leads to some randomness, I'll admit, especially when I don't always put the records back that I happen to be listening to until some time [...]

"I watched Freedomland. On Demand. I demanded it. The part(s) are there, sort of. Richard Price: Novel and screenplay. Add in some good Wire actors. Now run away . Go read Klosterman's last word on Snakes On A Plane (in Esquire) instead. Good stuff . Despite this (Freedomland) being the worst movie I've seen this year, the qualities that make it so are not worthy of attention." Alice Donut - "Testosterone Gone Wild"
