Lately my writing has taken a sinister bend. Okay, maybe not that sinister. Still I have been getting into punk and older hardcore. Must be the 'summer energy' I've being soaking up. Birthdays, weddings, festivals, and a thousand other celebrations that go on when the weather turns warm, then hot, then molten. Dogs are running more, the kids are losing the fat they stored up for the winter, and...

San Francisco's old-school punks, Flipper, have been quietly getting their thrash back into full working order and have recorded a brand new album! I can't believe it! It's been a full 15 years since their last studio album! They haven't announced a name for the LP yet, but drummer Steve DePace confirmed that it contains 10 songs of what might be their best work ever. According to a report ...

...I just shot down to Amoeba Records to exchange some albums and DVD's and got FIVE TIMES the amount I would've gotten if I'd went to Penny Lane Records...those fuggin' *bastuhs!!!* There's nothing worse than going to trade in your tunes somewhere and that feeling of getting raked over the coals begins to wash over you while some slack-jawed mook examines your albums/ CDs, etc. with a jeweler'...

Seminal. Original. Icon. Those three words are commonly used to help describe San Francisco band Flipper. The band's been in existence in several forms for 30 years and are marking the occasion with the release of two new albums.Marred by death and injury for much of their early years, Flipper has pushed on with a small camp of rotating members, most of which not recognizable by the music know-...

So... I was duly corrected with my last post. It's FIREFOX, NOT FOXFIRE YOU DOLT!Heh... I've been a bit high strung as of late. My nerves are on the frayed edges of sanity due to this that and the other. I've had some of my trusted moggers posting songs from the band Flipper. It's got me posting on them now. The only release that I have is Generic, the re-release from Rick Rubens Def American l...

I've read in a number of places that awesome San Francisco noise/sludge/punk outfit Flipper held a coveted place in Kurt Cobain's record collection, alongside The Vaselines, The Melvins, and The Raincoats. So it was an obvious pick for the Flipper dudes (TMT News) to pick up former Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic for low-end duty, especially considering he's not doing much these days besides fi...

As the first decade of the oughts crawls ever closer to its inevitable conclusion, one has to suspect that for some these past 10 years in pop music will not be remembered for its new material, but for its reunions. Thanks to enablers like All Music Guide, Pitchfork, and Soulseek, the double zeros' younger generation caught wind of many a classic act from rock's halcyon days (basically everythi...
