Hey
there, turkeys. It’s Decibel Magazine deadline time again, where I
obsess over every word choice in my assignments before sending them over
to the awesome editors who put up with my New York Mets rumors, dated
film references, and crappy jokes. Just a quick update as a glimpse of
what’s to come after this current wave of assignments is finished:
Decibel Magazine, issue #106: I had the chance to talk to the guys from Lesbian about their new 44 minute one-song album ForesTeleVision
and write up a profile about mushrooms, lady space warriors, and the
immensity of their sound. They’re really articulate dudes and the album
is one of my favorites this year, definitely go check it out. I also
wrote 2 reviews, bands to be named upon release of the issue.
Kung Fu Breakfast, issue #9:
The next issue’s theme is “Cahiers du Fetiche,” including ruminations
on fetish from KFB’s roster of madly talented artists. I dusted off an
old prose poem from my first full book of poetry Lock the Doors, the Poet Feasts at Midnight and I am heavily revising it while adding an epilogue. Thrill killing and blood-soaked sex scenes, you know the drill.
Decibel Magazine, issue #107:
Just interviewed Jonah, drummer of Ramming Speed, and will profile
those Boston thrashers in the issue releasing at the end of July. Really
nice guy with admirable positivity and energy. Can’t wait to see these
guys come through Brooklyn with Valient Thorr and Gypsyhawk, their new
album Doomed to Destroy, Destined to Die is a god damn game changer. I also have one review, band to be revealed upon release of the issue.
Kung Fu Breakfast, 4th of July side-issue:
I’m also submitting a piece to a special holiday issue. The story is
very seeeeeecret right now, mainly because I only have two paragraphs
written. Expect my usual: Words, with occasional punctuation.
Mister Growl:
Reviews on the way for a bunch of great bands, including, in no
particular order: Unkind, Wilson, Black Sheep Wall, Coffins, and Noisem.
More to come soon! Catch ya later, goonies.
