2012-2017

A noisier and more musically experimental side project for Nick Cave and three members of his band, the Bad Seeds.  While Nick Cave's music has evolved from the harrowing post-punk wail of the Birthday Party to the eloquent and often poetic approach he explored on the albums The Boatman's Call and No More Shall We Part with his group the Bad Seeds, the troublemaking noise merchant of his youth has never entirely gone away, and in 2006 Cave founded Grinderman to give this side of his musical personality a new outlet.

Nick Cave's garage band to issue Grinderman 2 RMX, featuring 12 last pieces of gnarly noise before their 'indefinite hiatus' 
Although Nick Cave announced the end of the Grinderman last month, the band are set for one last hurrah. They will say farewell with a remix album featuring Josh Homme, UNKLE and the National's Matt Berninger. As the band begins an indefinite hiatus, Grinderman 2 RMX, due in March on Mute, will collect 12 reworkings, mix-ups, demos and B-sides, including a collaboration with King Crimson's Robert Fripp.

Once in a while, Germany offers uniquely talented female singers, and Andrea is one of those. Draw yourself a line from Marlene Dietrich over to Nico, add some dashes Chamber Pop in the vein of The Tindersticks to it and you come close. Discovered and loved by such illustrious people like Charles Plymell or Mike Watt, Andrea Schroeder is an exceptional phenomenon.

A pivotal figure in the late-'70s no wave scene, a punk poet/actor who recorded confrontational, sexually charged music. The year 2013 proved to be prolific for Lunch. Her live band offering Retro Virus (her backing trio included guitarist Weasel Walter, drummer Bob Bert, and bassist Algis Kyzis)...

from Retro Virus 2013
...Now based in Spain, Lunch both affirms and rejects the “grand dame of no wave” (or any such terminology) in Retro Virus, a quartet convened with Weasel Walter (guitar), Algis Kizys (bass, ex-Swans/Foetus), and Bob Bert (drums, ex-Sonic Youth/Pussy Galore). Released on Walter’s ugEXPLODE label, the eponymous Retro Virus was recorded live at Knitting Factory Brooklyn at the close of a November 2012 US tour, and it finds Lunch and company in top form...Looking beyond the somewhat dated production values of late-80s/early-90s avant-rock and “industrially-associated” music (which are occasionally played up here), the tunes and their general feel are surprisingly undated, tough and economical in execution but with an underlying ornateness (some might call that excess — to each one’s own). Lunch is a force among vocalists/presences, and it’s wonderful to be reminded of that so keenly. Her nuance, power, and theatrical dynamism are certainly front-and-center here, but with a cracking ensemble sonically dropped in from the prime era of scum, Retro Virus is also some of the most empathetic music Lunch has made.

2009-2013

From lo-fi roots and compulsive recording, this fuzzy Philly songwriter grew a huge body of strong and constantly evolving solo work. / Philadelphia songwriter Kurt Vile was already recording himself at home by age 14, shortly after his bluegrass-loving father purchased him a banjo to encourage his youthful creativity. By age 17, Vile was self-releasing cassettes of his home recordings, which in the earliest days were strongly influenced by the raw slacker pop of the Drag City roster. He would continue to record prolifically, releasing cassettes and CD-Rs of his solo material while holding down a day job as a forklift operator.

from Childish Prodigy 2009
Don't judge a book by its cover. Kurt Vile's long-haired hippie appearance may suggest West Coast roots -- even though he's actually a Philadelphian -- but his sound comes straight out of the underbelly of the Big Apple. With a slack-singing style reminiscent of Lou Reed or Alan Vega, and his vocals doused in slap-back reverb, the songs on Childish Prodigy shift between gritty numbers driven by guitar fuzz and steady ballads backed by one-key baritone drones...

A pivotal figure in the late-'70s no wave scene, a punk poet/actor who recorded confrontational, sexually charged music. / After leaving the seminal New York no wave outfit Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, poet/actress/vocalist Lydia Lunch (b. Lydia Koch) embarked on a solo career marked by frequent collaborations and band changes, plus an attitude of confrontational nihilism expressed in both her sound and her often violent and/or sexually oriented subject matter.

from Big Sexy Noise 2009
Big Sexy Noise follow up their vinyl mini album, released in summer of 2009, with a full blown CD album. The band, fronted by Lydia Lunch and Gallon Drunk alt-rockers James Johnston, Terry Edwards and Ian White, have recorded a further five Johnston/Lunch originals plus a Lynyrd Skynyrd cover to complement the original six tracks.

Glamorously heartbroken purveyors of evocative electropop. / Beginning as a no wave band with an equally volatile lineup and sound, Chromatics evolved into one of the most influential electro-pop acts of the 2000s and 2010s. On albums such as Night Drive and Kill for Love, the group's evocative mix of Italo-disco, post-punk, and '80s pop was glamorous, heartbroken, and utterly distinctive.

from In The City 2010

Insomniacs often appreciate boredom in a tranquil, morbid and sometimes depressed sort of way. Watching the sun rise after a night of consciousness is thrilling in a some forms. Beautifully, your eyes heavy with the anxiety of depression and stress seem to stay wide to witness the death and birth of our star... This album was released proceeding the Italians Do It Better debut, ‘Night Drive’, which was much more dreamy than the proceeding albums which would sometimes be labeled as post-disco... String leads, driving bass melodies, guitar lines and drum programming make ‘In The City’ an intricate and dreamy listen. The first track instantly pulls the auditor into a deep psychedelia, tranquil and, in a hidden way, ambiguous and scary...
