Last week I dropped the knowledge egg and told you that I was going to see Captain Ahab . I was jazzed, as I have been a fan of these guys since around 2002 or 2003. We get to the Sons of Hermann Hall, a dandy of a venue on the outskirts of Deep Ellum. Jonny and I had seen The Paper Chase there a few years prior and that rainy night ended with two car accidents, a deployed airbag, and a doozy of a hangover the [...]
Captain Ahab | Death by Audio | April 16, 2011 Make no mistake, Captain Ahab put on a show like no other band. The Los Angeles duo are rave-core laptop-wielders with a mostly naked dancer. Neither the theatrics nor the music are disappointing. The photos below don't nearly do them the justice they deserve. www.captain-ahab.com | www.deathbombarc.com

Captain Ahab go "Wild"
Captain Ahab have a new video, but the big surprise is that it's not for a song from their latest album. The Los Angeles act dig a little back with a song from After the Rain My Heart Still Dreams , "Girls Gone Wild" (perhaps the band's biggest hit). It's likely created for Ahab's ever evolving multi-media live show. Check it out above.

Sightings: Captain Ahab, "The Kingdom Of Light"
The Kingdom of Light from Captain Ahab on Vimeo . If you knew the apocalypse was coming, what would you do? If you're Jim and Jonathan from Captain Ahab , your bucket list includes IRL Fruit Ninja and In-N-Out Burger (duh). In the new Lawrence Klein -directed video for "The Kingdom of Light," the duo get to enact their most outrageous impulses and basest desires to a glitchy electro backing tune that sounds like the soundtrack to real armageddon. There are lots of surprises in store during the relentlessly edited, video-game styled clip, but [...]

Old and Jaded: That was fake, right?
Short O+J this week, folks, as I'm pressed for time. If anyone is into half-naked dudes punching, kicking and choking each other under the guise of sportsmanship, check out my mixed martial arts writings at MMAMAnia.com . There's a big event this weekend, and I've been busting my hump doing two pieces a day over there. You little peanuts didn't suggest anything to me last week, so I got nothing new to report on that front. Consider me heartbroken, too. On the "11 in 11" concert front (yes, I've decided to go add [...]

Captain Ahab tour dates: April 1 - Oakland, CA @ Church Of The Buzzard April 2 - Sacramento, CA @ The Hub April 3 - Reno, NV @ Holland House April 4 - Salt Lake City, [...]

CAPTAIN AHAB + NICOLE KIDMAN @ PEHRSPACE
Twas the Monday after Christmas and all through Echo Park, not that much music was stirring except at Pehrspace. The dark parking lot was like a school yard where all the children sat on broken glass beneath a smoky haze. There were so many people, it seemed half of them were there to listen to the puddles dry and would not even make it inside, which was packed shoulder to shoulder by an array of youngsters and strange looking oldsters (guy in leopard print suit and hat, other guy with all the piercings and dreads that's often at DIY things, [...]
