Thompson No, this photo is not from last week's show at 1-2-3-4 Go! Records. It was all ages after all and Nobunny kept his clothes on. The room was completely packed and no one was safe from the moshing, flying jackets and projectile vomit. The short set ripped through much of the Nobunny catalog including the signature "Boneyard" and "I [...]

NoBunny is a guy who strums out gravity-free pep pills while wearing skivvies and a bunny mask. When that's the frontman, soul-baring confessions and experiments aren't going to happen. Mr. NoBunny plays rock 'n' roll, not rock. This record is concise and absurd. Like all good rock 'n' roll, the songs won't say much about the person performing them, at least not directly. In our

My Gold Mask | photo by Audrey Leon Hopefully, you have all managed to get through this blackest of Black Fridays without getting trampled upon for a $2 waffle maker, Chicagoans, because we've got an incredible line-up of musical acts setting up shop all round this fair city. We're talking Scott Lucas and the Married Men at Hard Rock Cafe, My Gold Mask at Empty Bottle, Tandoori Knights at Bottom Lounge and so much more. Come on, Pilgrim ! [...]
A breakdown of the Weird, the Wild, and the Fantastic acts that made Fun Fun Fun Fest 2011 live up to its name.

After three days and insane Fun Fun Fun Fest 'Nites, I wholeheartedly believe that Fun Fun Fun Fest is the best music festival in Austin. The line up was unreal, featuring performances that ranged from Big Freedia's booty bouncing set to Okkervil River's Pitchfork-approved rock and Cannibal Corpse's mosh pit. This dichotomy managed to perfectly define the festival. Bopping between Sunday's three-way headliners; Blonde Redhead , Slayer and Odd Future , I got to experience the full gamut of musical genres. There were some definite standout [...]
We realize that not everyone has the good fortune of living in the great state of Texas, but between SXSW, Chaos in Tejas, Rites of Darkness and Austin's anti-ACL, Fun Fun Fun Fest, we feel the Lone Star State has got the lock on kickass music festivals and and you're really missing out if you haven't made the trek down for at least one of them.If you're fortunate enough to make it to Austin this

When I fell backwards over the railings at the Green Door Store last night, screaming Derek Holland , I had this mix in my mind.

As we noted on Monday , this week is jam-packed with shows, and a number of special concerts are happening over the upcoming Halloween weekend. Here's a brief rundown of some of what's going down in SF music around All Hallows' Eve. Nobunny, Ty Segall and more to cover New York Dolls, Gories, and more Not only are the four local bands playing at the Brick and Mortar Music Hall on Friday night (9pm, $10) rad on their own - [...]
California's Nobunny has been at it for several years, and is filthy bit of garage rock is precisely what you'll get if you visit his set over at the Black Stage. His most recent record, First Blood , is a lot more polished then his last outing, which gives his song a lot more power, in so far as you can definitely find yourself immersed in the melody and the music, rather than just his antics. Wait? I didn't mention that he plays in a rabbit [...]

This past winter, the vinyl and cassette connoisseurs over at Burger Records pressed Nobunny's Raw Romance —a cassette-only release from back in 2009— to vinyl with new (and awesome) artwork and freshly re-mastered tracks. Below, check out one of my favorite cuts off the LP—the bluesy acoustic fuzzball and album-closer "Vicious Circle." I'm not sure where the audio clip is culled from that's spliced into the end of the track, but man, it's pretty hilarious. "I'm shaking with hunger. No more!" While the purple vinyl is unfortunately sold out, you can still snag Raw Romance [...]

Girls came to Lincoln Hall in Chicago last week to headline a show. You're seeing these words, so I can assume you're interested in this band. I'm interested in them too; I even like them and have for a little while now. Their new album came out last month, and that's why this show happened. A four piece named PAPA opened the show. Their name is in all caps. First of all, I have to tell you that they have a singing drummer. If I were you, I would really want to know that before anything else. [...]
Photos GirlsOctober 1, 2011First Ave, MinneapolisIt was the encore that did it. Christopher Owens walked out on stage by himself, a slender wisp of a man with messy blonde hair and sad, sunken eyes.

When Girls released their new album Father, Son, Holy Ghost earlier this month I was on the fence. I was somewhat of a fan of the band's previous output, but wouldn't consider myself a full-fledged true believer. That changed whenever the album hit the internet. The first two tracks, "Honey Bunny" and "Alex" set the stage for one of the year's most interesting releases. It converted me. While I wasn't able to catch the band personally, Ed Oliver brought photos from last night's show [...]
Oakland's Elvis Christ will be releasing the band's debut 73 on 1-2-3-4 Go! Records soon, and "Wild at Heart" is upbeat garage pop with an endearing sentiment: "I'm wild at heart, but I'm doing the best I can." Says the label : Rock'n'roll savior from the heavens below! EC is the rotten lo-fi rock'n'roll brainchild of Jason Testasecca. JT is half of "Mandy & Jason" who's tape you may have heard from Burger Records, a touring member of the Nobunny band in various roles at various times and [...]

Walking up to Cat's Cradle, I went to the front door like always...but I was redirected around to the side of the building. After waiting 40 minutes after the doors were supposed to open, the crowd was let in. What I walked into was not the Cat's Cradle I was expecting: everything was gone. I was standing in a massive open space, with only the soundboard sitting between the stage and bar. At first it felt like the building was remodeled after an outside festival stage. To be honest, I was unsure what to think. After the initial [...]

Nobunny @ Golden West by joshsisk

Words by Brendan The holiday weekend has come and gone. You're back from wherever you went to stand around a grill and drink beer with those relatives you only see twice a year. Or maybe you've been in town all along and you're still catching up on lost sleep from a hectic weekend (like me). Whatever your status, it's back to the summer concert season this weekend, and you've got plenty of options coming up in the next few days. Garage rock at the 31st Street Pub, folk rock at the Carnegie Museum, our [...]
