Spazz Fest IV Sayonara

Apr 1, 3:42pm The Dadada
SpazzFestIV
As I've mentioned before, it was the best year for the festival and next year promises to be better when considering the venues available to host. More attention from fans and media doesn't hurt either. We've compiled live video footage, embeddable streams (Bandcamp/SoundCloud only), and legally available mp3s for artists who performed this year. The Videos... SpazzFester extraordinaire, Jonathan Harris, took lots of Spazz Fest video and then proceeded to share it on Facebook/YouTube. I thought I'd compile some of the better quality videos and share here-but owe a big shout to [...]

I’M OBSESSED | Des Ark

May 16, 2011, 10:00am A Mindful Earful
I’M OBSESSED | Des Ark Myspace | Official | Facebook  | Twitter Yes, I will admit that sometimes I will search up a musician just because their cover art or album title intrigues me. It's a superficial method, but hey, I've stumbled across many of my favourite artists this way. It happened again a couple days ago. Pitchfork did me a solid when I happened across the cover art for Des Ark 's sophomore album  Don't Rock the Boat, Sink the Fucker along with a review [...]

Anwar Sadat with Pygmy Lush, Des Ark, Prideswallower and Reading Group @ Keswick Democratic Club – 4/7

Apr 6, 2011, 8:42pm Backseat Sandbar
Anwar Sadat with Pygmy Lush, Des Ark, Prideswallower and Reading Group @ Keswick Democratic Club – 4/7 Many and most of the great bands that have come from the city of Louisville have some roots in the hardcore scene. Hell, we're known for Slint, which influenced the scene on an international level. There is still quite a lot of noise coming from this scene, and if you didn't know, you need to be knowin'. Ayin was a very important member of this family for the better part of a decade. When they split, bassist Daisy Schwartz notably went on to play with Foxy Shazam. The other members went on to play for some other bands [...]

Des Ark at The Drunken Unicorn, Atlanta

Mar 19, 2011, 1:16pm the music slut
Aimee Argote, known to many as Des Ark, is a very funny girl. In between songs, she regularly has the audience hand-to-mouth cackling at her anecdotes, descriptions of her inventions (including the dangerous and delicious sexual practice of experiencing a "baked jefferson"), and just a general comedic command over the room. And more than just [...]

Αμπελοφασο υλοσοφίες 10/02/11

Feb 9, 2011, 5:43pm some beans
Αμπελοφασο υλοσοφίες 10/02/11 Φουριόζικο μπήκε τελικά το 2011 και δεν του φαινότανε. Ήδη κάποιοι δίσκοι μας τράβηξαν την προσοχή (ασυνήθιστα πολλοί για την εποχή) ενώ κάποιοι άλλοι όχι τόσο καλοί μας άφησαν ευχάριστες αναμνήσεις με ορισμένα τραγούδια τους. Για τους δίσκους επιβάλλεται να τα πούμε πιο αναλυτικά. Για τα τραγούδια δεν είναι τόσο απαραίτητο. Για παράδειγμα το "Forever The Bridge" των Μανκουνιανών Spokes απο το Everyone I Ever Met [...]

Video of des_ark from the Manchild release

Apr 5, 2009, 11:56am Mann's World
Video of des_ark from the Manchild release Last night was the release-party for Brian Walsby 's latest book of drawings, Manchild 4, at Tir na Nog . Brian was also selling T-shirts and drawings, including one of the late Minutemen leader D. Boone, which I bought. As expected, the place was packed. Goner, The Loners, des_ark and Double Negative all played, but I decided to concentrate my photo efforts on des_ark because I'd only seen them once before, and because I knew that Aimee Argote gets really animated on stage. Check out the video below to see what I mean. [...]
