So, I'm really bummed out that we aren't gonna make it to SXSW this year. First of all, I've never been and think it's about time I go. Second, who doesn't wanna see TONS of awesome bands/artists/djs/films/whatev ers all in one place? And besides all that it's so fun to see friends, not work and be wild for a week. BUT...I'm not going. However, there's always next year (and maybe next year will be even better) and MAYBE you'll even see some sort of Young Creature/ Soul Ponies collabo! However, this is 2010 so let's forget about [...]

Written by: Maris Kaplan Photos by: Irja Elisa Although named Amnesia, the small San Francisco bar offered an unforgettable night of music last Thursday evening with performances from three majorly reputable San Francisco and East Bay acts: Magic Bullets, the Splinters, and Hunx and His Punkettes. A packed house crowded in under the dim red lights from the very first song of Magic Bullets , called "Kick." Between hip swinging and hair tossing, the crowd was thanked and points were scored for the use of the [...]

Poster Art by Jared Silbert We've been somewhat absent on the live events side of things lately, but it's not for a lack of irons in fires (or pots on stovetops, or, you get the idea). In any event, before our big South by Southwest shindig in March, we're hosting a free happy hour show during Noise Pop. It's a great all-local lineup that's guaranteed to be a ton of fun.

I was going to tell you about all the free shows at Noise Pop this year, but I think Broke-Ass Stuart did a great job doing so for The Bay Bridged , so check it out there . I'll just tell you that I hella recommend the Hunx & His Punx / Spencey Dude & The Doodles / Weekend happy-hour (5-8PM) show next Friday the 26th at Benders . Hunx & His Punx: "Good Kisser" Spencey Dude & The Doodles: "Maybe [...]
Christopher e-mailed me this clip today that he made from his ipod nano of his Girls tour so far in February. I took a clip of them backstage at Webster Hall on my ipod nano and it became, like, all the rage. I should send it to him but I don't know how to do anything (like, get it off the fucking ipod). I'm glad to see Chris is making something of his YouTube account, Myles must be giving him lessons.

Back in the 1960's and 70's, girl groups rocked the landscape of popular music by combining their musical chops, their harmonies, and their feminist lyrics to create just the right kind of sexual revolution for the times. These girls weren't about to stand in the background and act as their mothers had, they wanted to be seen and heard and listened to for once. They made a statement for themselves and helped push forth reform and improved rights for women all over the place. Now that the sound of those rocking pioneers is back in style it's hard [...]
If you're craving a bit of flamboyance, check out San Francisco's Hunx And His Punx, the project of performer/ personality Seth Bogart. Gay Singles is a compilation of all five of his singles released between 2008 and 2009 (plus a bonus track) and will be released February 9 on True Panther Sounds. Visually, Bogart is [...]
Hartzine vous propose de revenir sur une année de musique à travers les bilans subjectifs de ses rédacteurs et leurs tops. Benoît Dans le monde merveilleux du vin, il existe parait-il des années miracles qui se répéteraient toutes les fins de décennie et il semblerait que cet axiome se vérifie également dans l'univers de la musique. Pour s'en convaincre, il n'y a qu'à regarder de plus près les bilans de fin d'année proposés ici et là pour s'apercevoir que l'année 2009 n'a pas enfanté de palmarès consensuels, preuve d'une année discographique "grand [...]

It's nearly Christmas and it's snowing like cats and dogs outside. That means you probably don't feel like goin' to a show. The fact that it's the end of December also means there's not too many good shows to go to, either. I should probably post some sort of winter-themed song, but instead I'm going to post this gem from California's Hunx and His Punx . It's a song about not being able to like someone who doesn't like rock and roll, no matter how good-looking or good at cooking they may be. My favorite line is, "I [...]

I've always really disliked Gravy Train . I eventually gave up even trying to listen to their music, it's just not for me. Consequently, it's quite ironic that one of my favorite releases of the year comes from Seff of Gravy Train's side project, Hunx and His Punx . Hunx and His Punx is Seff's solo garage pop endeavor in which he records super short and painfully infectious, bratty-voiced homosexual sing-alongs in a style reminiscent of 1950s/1960s girl groups like The Ronettes . The first time I came across Hunx I left his MySpace page [...]
