Though Mark Sultan 's June Columbus show was plenty entertaining, Mr. Sultan's return on Tuesday promises even more rock 'n roll value as he reprises his role in the King Khan & BBQ Show !  Canadian legends Sultan (aka BBQ) and King Khan have reunited to conjure another garage/punk/doowop/etc party and have set out on a late fall jaunt through the Midwest and East.   No new music is available yet, but if the above video is any indication, [...]

Mark Sultan w/ Deer Tick @ Zankel Hall 10/2/2012 (more by Chris La Putt ) One-man-band extraordinaire, Mark Sultan , just played the John McCauley and Friends show at Zankel Hall in NYC and will be on tour for most of the fall, some of which will be as part of King Khan & BBQ Show and you can watch a video preview they made just for their dates, which don't include NYC unfortunately. New York, however, will get Sultan solo at Union Pool [...]

A long-time fixture in the garage-rock scene since fronting infamous Montreal punk band, The Spaceshits. Further projects like Les Sexareenos, BBQ, Mind Controls, The King Khan & BBQ Show and The Almighty Defenders helped spearhead the modern garage-rock and doo-wop movement. These days he is best known as the ‘BBQ’ half of The King Khan & BBQ Show or as a member of The Almighty [...]

Change of pace this week my blog will be featuring three music videos, the first from Mark Sultan. Mark Sultan is a Canadian musician from Montreal, Quebec. He has been associated with many Garage Rock groups such as Spaceshits, Les Sexereenos and has been involved with numerous other bands. He is perhaps known more for his work with King Khan & BBQ Show (Sultan going under the pseudonym BBQ), but he has also been releasing music under Mark Sultan for quite some time. Playing as a one [...]

Mark Sultan has been a long-time fixture in the ' garage rock ' scene, having played in such bands as The King Khan & BBQ Show , The Almighty Defenders (Sultan, Khan, Black Lips), BBQ, The Ding-Dongs (with Bloodshot Bill), The Spaceshits, Les Sexareenos, Mind Controls , etc... and has released a bunch of records on labels that include In The Red, Last Gang, Crypt, Fat Possum, Dirtnap, Goner, Sub Pop, Vice, Bomp !, Norton, and Sympathy For The Record Industry .. He has toured North and South America, Europe, [...]

Tonight marks the officially release party of, in my opinion, one of the best live records I've heard in quite a while. As you can read from my review , the Shimby Presents: Live at the Empty Bottle compilation does a fantastic job of showcasing both national (Best Coast, Black Lips) and local (Hollows, Mickey) acts on the same plane. Additionally, it's a taste of the sound and vibe that's often emantaing from the Empty Bottle these days - thrashy garage rock that bends in both the heavy and psychedelic ways. Tonight's release show features one-half of [...]

-- Mark Sultan at Bell House ( more by Jason House ) Ahhh... So these last few months have been all about downtime, and getting lots of non-musical crap done. Lots of stressful things that I doubt anyone is interested in. But I am now pretty clear of most of it, so that's cool. Musically, it's not like I have been doing nothing, just not as much. That being said, I have recorded a bunch of new songs. They need some vocals and organ, for the most part, but this new batch of [...]

Sultan blends together his doo-wop, garage, and punk influences, presenting himself as a peerless artist. Mark Sultan is a human paradox. One would be hard-pressed to find a musician that is more prolific as far as recording output is concerned, but also one who garners less attention from the media. And though so many of his tunes espouse a general sense of chaotic benevolence, dude is really quite reserved in interviews. He's spent his past banging around cities like Berlin and Montreal under a variety of monikers with cats like...

photos by Jason House ...lo and behold, to my amazement, after Saturday's show, I've now seen The Gories do their thing threefold. And each time has been better than the last, as if they've picked up where they left off to become meaner and leaner. This time, they started with the obvious ("Hey, Hey We're The Gories"), but as they announced, tonight's performance delved into lesser known cuts from singles and comps. As such, we heard their wooly version of The Keggs' "To Find [...]

When it comes to a record involving Mark Sultan , it's fair to say that you generally know what to expect. From his early bands through to his BBQ alias (including three great albums as part of The King Khan & BBQ Show) he's been a man who's not only looked to the past for inspiration, aping the raw guitar sounds of yore, but he's managed replicated these sounds in a way that somehow transcends mere imitation, carving out a niche of his own. Quite how this is achieved when so much is borrowed is something of a mystery, [...]

My love for noisy post-punk duo The Human Tail has been well-documented -- no seriously, blast the 2010 Tape EP right now, it's fantastical -- so I'm pleased to see fine gent Robbie Lordi... Support indie media! Read the rest at thephoenix.com . . .

Mark Sultan in Austin ( more by Tim Griffin ) Back in October, even before he played the Norton party at The Bell House , Mark Sultan (aka BBQ) told Spinner : "I understand and appreciate instantaneous music and artforms in general," he maintains. "But I will say a lot of that is so phony to me. To talk about dubstep, for example: Maybe that's cutting edge for the next month in Williamsburg, but the fact is, I call bulls--- and I don't believe you. I think you're [...]

• Mark Sultan - Song In Grey

Following their acrimonious breakup, the King Khan and BBQ show reunite on a new seven-inch that features their cover of Syd Barrett's 'Terrapin.' Listen to it now.

• CoverMe - The King Khan and BBQ Show – Terrapin (Syd Barrett cover)

Filed under: News , Exclusive , New Releases Courtesy of Mark Sultan Mark Sultan does whatever he wants, whenever he wants. At least that's what the Montreal garage rock enthusiast sometimes known as BBQ ( but no longer part of King Khan and BBQ Show) says when asked about his new and aptly titled vinyl albums, 'Whatever I Want' and 'Whenever I Want,' as well as in a recent blog post.

A video for the song "In Future Worlds," which comes off the new Mark Sultan compilation Whatever/Whenever . This album is comprised of fourteen tracks from two recent Sultan releases, Whatever I Want and Whenever I want . In true Sultan fashion, the track above is an odd and lo-fi take on garage rock, old school R&B, psych rock, and soul. Yes, different worlds, but this guy always manages to meld into a world of his own. Look for Whatever/Whenever on In the Red Records tomorrow. [...]
