wow, ten years. a thousand young was an all star metallic hardcore band of anchorage bred portland transplants back in the days before mustaches and fucking fixies. portland was cheap rent and cheap beer and cheap food and no winter and good shows every night, or so it seemed to those of us still scraping together enough money to pay the security guard for a rec center show back in alaska. you can still hear the band finding their legs a bit, and i always wished this band had put out another ep or a proper full length. alas, here [...]

Critically lauded Portland, Oregon transplants The Builders and the Butchers bring their energetic revivalist show home to Alaska for four dates this month. They'll be supported by some of Alaska's finest acoustic country folk punk. I don't have a lot of time, so I'll say this: If you don't go to one of these shows you risk being out of touch. Seriously. I'd better see both of the readers of this blog there. Live at the Moore Theatre, Seattle, WA Previous write-up Oct 17th [...]
