Last Wednesday, 08/26/09 was another Ryan's Smashing Life showcase. Show preview was here: http://www.bostonbandcrush.com /2009/08/show-crush-rsl-presen ts-larcenist.html Larcenist were releasing their CD at this show, they are a group of five songwriters that all sing and sometimes do gang vocals. They veered from street punk to alt-country in a way that made them hard to pin down genre-wise. More photos of Larcenist are located here . Larcenist Video: [...]

Sunday morning coffee with a side of overcast. The scratching of unmet goals, forced-aside desire. (How I wish I had more courage.) "Angry Charlie " - Generationals, Con Law , LP, 2009. I think at a certain point, the mind makes it impossible to keep up appearances. The band has stretched too far. It breaks, and the self-discovery forces its way forward. "Let's Make This Precious" - [...]
Ryan's Smashing Life is at it again, putting on another stellar line-up. Ian Adams opens, he just released a solo album called Stay Up Late (he previously fronted the band Rock City Crimewave) that is moody and garagy and full of murder ballads. The Shondes are from Brooklyn and I hear equal parts Siouxsie Sioux and Amanda Palmer. Rumor is that their live show is great. Static of the Gods are a powerful trio with soaring female vocals. They are preparing release [...]

The Shondes Genre: Rock / Classical / Indie From: Brooklyn, New York, United States Type the words Jewish queercore into google and the only band that you'll turn up are Brooklyn quartet The Shondes (you will, however, need to press return otherwise you'll get nothing!). This could mean that Jewish queercore is a genre too far or that The Shondes, who take their name from the Yiddish word for "shame" or "disgrace", are the only band brave enough [...]

Went to see The Shondes tonight at the Towne Lounge. It was alright. The people in the band and the people watching the people in the band were more interesting than the music. So that's not so bad. Not so happening for me musically. But did i tell you that they seem really nice and queer and fun? When I heard the title of this song, i was super wishing for Shirelles/Carole King cover. That, my friends, is showing my age. The Shondes - Will You [...]
