Even though we're unapologetic fanboys of earthtone9, we'll still admit that it was with some trepidation that we headed down to Highbury to catch the final date of the band's first full tour since we broke the news of their reformation in May last year. It's been a fair few years since earthtone9 were among the [...]

A few years ago a bought a smattering of CD's from a distro up-North, and although I can't recall the exact details, what I do remember that I was lovingly given a couple of freebies. At the time I almost totally disregarded them - I thought that if they were good enough to be given away with no explanation they probably weren't worth listening to. They have been sitting on my shelves ever since, one is still shrink wrapped and the other I did actually listen to. That release was by Humanfly and their album A God Among [...]

Not all of Stereogum's favorite sounds conform to what folks expect us to cover. In this space, resident Bananafish fetishist Brandon Stosuy focuses on bands, albums, singles, and villages in Sweden that may otherwise pass by unnoticed. This installment's virtual milk crate contains Shit And Shine , Grails , and Humanfly . Shit And Shine's new one Kuss Mich, Meine Liebe is my favorite British-born record in recent memory: It's a distorted, distended, brown-tinted mass of fuzz and muck sectioned via titles like "Biggest Cock In Christendom," "The Germans [...]

Y'know, I wore a lot of questionable/random shirts in my early teens. And those stylistic choices, more often than not, guaranteed all sorts of unwanted attention. It was as if, whenever I left the house, I wore a giant neon sign on me that said 'Will Dress For Insults'. When I wore Hawaiian shirts: "Nice shirt F-GG-T! Where's Tubbs?!?!?!" , a Peter Tosh T-shirt: " Take a bath ya HIPPY!" , a Maui & Sons shirt: "Surf's Up KOOK!" , a Morrissey shirt: "Oh boo hoo, just go KILL yourself already ya big girl's blouse!" : my Alien [...]
