DRUNKS WITH GUNS is a project that has achieved legendary status, due in part to the lack of documentation beyond the band’s limited discography. Still they had universal recognition despite their absence, influencing the following decades of noise rock degeneracy and beyond. I'm joined by Adam Leh…
Deep-fried philosophy with Alex Bienstock. Alex's musical output resists simple genre classifications - moving from noise, to indie rock, to trap. A flexi of his project DIY Surgery is now available on Pleasure Principle. Intro clips courtesy the label. Outro clip from ESCBAS Best of 3 (courtesy Al…
Nika Danilova began recording under the moniker Zola Jesus while attending the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She drew textures from industrial music and harsh noise (alongside operatic vocals) to create a sound that shaped the cultural moment. It also helped define the popular indie label Sacred…
