Civet, Continental, Plexikill, Fem (or Fam?) The Echo, Los Angeles, CA Saturday, April 23, 2011 I've a fan of Rick Barton's from way back, and a massive fan of Everybody Out. So when I heard EBO split I was pretty bummed out. About a year back Bart had posted some demo tracks from his new band, Continental. Unfortunately, I was too scared to listen to this stuff. Let me clarify this, not scared, scared, but more worried that after loving Everybody Out, what if this didn't measure up? Because [...]

The New York Times examines America's desire for coffee beans derived from the dung of civets - otherwise known as the rarest and most expensive coffee in the world - and how that demand is driving a new industry in Indonesia and the Philippines. Competition is touching off fierce debates. What is real civet coffee, anyway? Does the civet's choice of beans make the coffee? Or is it the beans' journey through the animal's digestive tract? Can the aroma, fragrance and taste of beans from the droppings of a caged civet ever be [...]

Thirty years of underground rock 'n' roll. According to Social Distortion 's Mike Ness, that's what we were all celebrating on Saturday night. From opening acts The Strangers, to all-girl hardcore band The Civets doing their first Canadian show, to the 90-minute set by the legendary headliners, it was a radical night of So-Cal punk rock. While the two opening bands set the stage for the rest of the night, there's no doubt who everyone came to see. The entire audience could have been the collective offspring of the band, who still sport [...]

I found today's music in a sort of unusual way. A few days ago, while skulking around the back corners of the Internet, I saw a link to "hot" female rockers. Of course I had to check it out. I'm browsing the list and see a band called Civet, whose four members are all gorgeous. I'm like, wow! What's this all about? A quick Google lead me to Civet's MySpace , where I checked out the songs they have posted. One thing I can say – these ladies may be pretty, but they are also for [...]

Civet - Son Of A Bitch from Michael Grodner - Director on Vimeo . "Hell Hath No Fury is the Hellcat Records debut from Civet, the hottest all-girl rock n' roll band (both literally and figuratively) to erupt from the Los Angeles rock scene since Joan Jett and Lita Ford formed The Runaways. And to update and polish the old cliche in punk terms: Hell Hath No Fury like four tattooed girls turned on by Motorhead, Murder City Devils and Rancid blasting through an album's worth of troubled-relationship fueled jams." These Chix [...]
