The Bingers play Schubas on Wednesday | Photo by Drew Reynolds Welcome to Weekly Diversions! This is our new weekly show calendar in which we preview our local show picks for Monday through Thursday. MONDAY OOZING WOUND Seeing how it's Metal Monday, in cool people's camps at least, it's fitting that Oozing Wound plays this evening. Featuring two members of the now defunct Cacaw (drummer Kyle [...]
Here is another collection of just some of the notable new tunes that have come our way recently...we're still catching up, so expect some more posts like this over the next few days. Kicking off with Nightingale Floors which will be the fifth album from indie duo Rogue Wave . This is the first taste from it, a mighty fine track titled College . . We also have another taste from the forthcoming Alex Bleeker & The Freaks album How Far Away [...]
Spraypaint - Yawn Factory Spraypaint - Dripping The Rails I'm not entirely sure of how to go about describing the unabashed noise and creeping chord progressions and yelpy distortion from these Spray Paint fellows... Wire meets The Monorchid, perhaps? Hard to say, but their new self-titled LP sure is tickling my fancy anyways, one short stab of herky-jerky dissonance at a time, and what's especially delightful is their refreshing-yet-discordant avant-whatever attitude of punchy, weirdo no-fi and off-kilter dueling guitars and a [...]
When I hear Spray Paint sing the refrain to Yawn Factory: "She drives a heavy load in the dark part of the country." This image pops into my head of Large Marge in her big rig describing to Pee Wee the "the worst accident I ever seen". Spray Paint are not the worst accident I ever seen, they are more like a traffic jam. Their spare twin guitar and drum attack pierce you're conscious and create anxiety, stress and general disquiet. Spray Paint can grate on you and grow on you all at once. [...]

They say all good things must come to an end. (We don't really believe that, but for the sake of putting a metaphysical slant to a post, we'll claim allegiance.) And, sorry to say, Free Week is no exception. Waah. But instead of bawling, let's go out with a BANG. For tonight, we recommend going Holy Mountain or Red 7 - Zorch , The Boxing Lesson , Boyfrndz , Tiger Waves , and Residual Kid will be doing the free thing [...]
Free Week has been an absolute blast, but you've only got three more days to partake in Austin's musical festivities. I suggest you maximize your time by hopping about from venue to venue. With only a few days left, I'm giving you suggestions on where you should find yourself Thursday night, with hopes you'll listen and support these great bands. Spray Paint , Wet Lungs, Cheap Curls, The Sour Notes , Holy Wave and more @ Red 7 [...]
Man, this next week and a half is shaping up to be a blast for everyone in Austin, and Friday is really starting to turn things up a notch. I've already caught great sets by Endless Thoughts , Politics and Parquet Courts , so I'm really looking forward to the rest of what's in-store. If you can't make it out this weekend, don't forget that Free Week now goes on into next week too! Here's my suggestions for Friday. The Real Energy, Spray Paint , Crooked [...]
No introduction needed really. Here are my top 10 favorite 7-inch records for 2012. Hope you like 'em too. 1. The Intelligence - (They Found Me In The Back Of) The Galaxy ( In the Red ) First time I heard this song my jaw dropped. It was at the Crocodile in Seattle and Lars introduced as an old song. At first I believed him, thinking it must have been on some obscure split 7-inch that came out in Moldova. Why did Finburg [...]
Visit Indie Shuffle to download. Sounds like: The White Stripes, Arctic Monkeys, The Preatures, Belles Will Ring Song: The Chemist - Spray Paint or Praise [download here ] [...]
These things are spectacular.
This is why we love The Great Escape Festival . This is also why bands are wise to play at the three day event. Ultimately the weekend is a showcase for emerging bands and finds such as the one we provide for you today are precisely what the event is really all about. Make all the plans and schedules you like for the city festival, but with over 300 bands, at thirty venues, last minute changes and unavoidable queues, it is perhaps advisable for visitors to prepare for the unexpected and assume you're gonna have to alter your intentions [...]
Following up on their two critically acclaimed full lengths, Black Moth Super Rainbow is back this week with a new single from their forthcoming album Psychic Damage . No release date for the album has been made available as of yet, but "Spraypaint" first went up on the band's Soundcloud page yesterday and was followed shortly after by a preview of another new track titled "Like A Sundae", which was unveiled on YouTube. If you're familiar with the band's previous material, you should certainly the enjoy the two new tracks, which follow a similar template to those on [...]
The neo-psych pop project Black Moth Super Rainbow is back with a new tune and an album announcement via SoundCloud. Stream the track "Spraypaint" above, which is, to me, one of the prettiest songs I've heard come out of the project. It features the usual set of punchy beats and breathy, heavily manipulated vocals, but the end result is very serene gentle.
Spray Paint are two guitars and drums from Austin, Texas that have apparently been abducted from Dikes of Holland , Expensive Shit , and When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth . Their debut single has just been issued by Sacramento, California's S-S Records. It's a limited pressing of 200, and I just saw that there are only 20 copies left of it (so the 20 of you people that read this blog have been warned). This record fucking kicks ass (note: I only use the f-word when reviewing punk records that kick butt). If you are a fan [...]
Leave it to an English writer to tell the tale of one of America’s greatest bands. Given the long standing bad vibes that continue to exist between most of the key players it’s a good thing that someone with an outside perspective decided to deseed Black Flag’s dark history. Guitarist Greg Ginn formed the band Panic in Hermosa Beach, California 1978 but later changed the name to Black Flag . He was lucky enough to cross paths with strong willed individuals like singer Keith Morris and bassist Chuck Dukowski, who shared Ginn’s enthusiasm [...]
Filed under: News , Video , Exclusive Tell All Your Friends Chicago experimental outfit A Lull is anything but a dull murmur in music. Employing afrobeat-inspired drums, fuzzed-out vocal pads and digital-age symphonics, A Lull create ever-changing scenery within the same song. The band's latest single, 'Some Love,' is a cacophony of genres, blended into an indie rock party anthem. "When we came up with the idea for the video we imagined [...]

![EVENT (London, UK): Trackside Burners at Cafe 1001 [06/25]!](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3547498_lg.jpg)
This saturday in London, DJ Philly ( Trackside Burners Radio ) will be taking out some time to go spin at Cafe 1001 (
On Friday April 8th, G-Shock & Krink celebrated their recent partnership with a unique exhibition of Craig Costello's work -- "Spray Paint the Walls" The signature Krink G-Shock watch, the DW6900KR-8, was on display alongside Costello's artwork, an abstraction inspired by his history of working with urban environments and architecture. Costello sprayed gallons of paint onto the walls filling the white space with bold color from the ceiling to the floor, the diluted-paint dripping down in vertical lines forming a pattern. The color and shapes have an organic feel that contrast with the hard lines and shapes [...]
