Creep Days 12″ (YT053)
This track might have originally found an audience with the barage of witch house tracks that came with the inception of the genre title.  This is way too upbeat to dwell solely in those confines, however.  It’s a solid dance single with a completely interesting intro track and a couple solid remixes by Deadboy and Azari & III on the B side. They even have a video made by half of Fischerspooner (fittingly methinks).  Definitely leaning towards the house half of the witchy stable this project brainchild of the DJ Lauren Flax is the brightest black star under the blood moon (and feel free to add diametrically opposed light/dark descriptions).

Sunday 6PM: Haunted Continents, Eurisko, Frost Watson

Haunted Continents, Eurisko, Frost Watson
For the Love of Connecticut
6PM Sunday, March 6, 2011 Meet at the store / $5 Suggested Donation

||Facebook Event||

Haunted Continents stems from a pretty simple idea: mix 50s bop and soul with 90s alternative. But it’s not like Buddy Holly playing Weezer tunes; it’s more like the other way around. Or maybe it’s a concoction of both, you know? Either way, the tunes are catchy, the guitars are heavy and The Loudest Year is thirty-one perfect minutes of fuzzed-out vintage rock and roll goodness … a perfect winter companion for heart-broken lovers and nerdy fan boys through out the land.


Eurisko is a 5-piece rock band from the greater New Haven/Waterbury area that formed in early 2010. Since their inception they have developed a sound soaked in whiskey, multi-layered guitar riffs, and grim lyrics. Influenced primarily by folk and indie rock, Eurisko’s music spans from quickly paced melodic ballads to deep, creeping songs carrying shipments of woe. Combining three guitars, bass, and drums, Eurisko sets the scene for the dynamic narratives that characterize their unique style of songwriting. Eurisko has drawn comparisons to Tom Waits, The Decemberists, Murder By Death, and Bright Eyes.

Frost Watson have the sound of pop punk in the ’60s. They’re from PA and NY. Come check them out. Check everyone out. See you Sunday.

Check It: Waylon Recordings

Waylon Recordings
 Waylon Recordings is a pretty new label. And while the facebook page may espouse Montana as its home, the fact is it’s just at home in Connecticut (or moreso).  One driving force behind it is known from his Northern (not-so-much-of) Failures

 “The label was founded by Christian McKenna (Slacks, Empty Flowers, 1965, Translation Loss Records) and Randy Larsen (Empty Flowers, Slacks, Cable)… They are solely interested in releasing trendy, hip bands that will make money.”
That last part is pretty pretty funny indeed.  So far they’ve released a CD by Slacks (themselves), Serpent Throne and Total Fucking Destruction.  Hip and trendy?  Not exactly (they’ve even still got myspace pages – links at the end of the post).  Good?  Exactly.
They’ve just got a few CDs out as yet, but they are a pretty solid grouping.  And you can find them all here (at the store), of course.  A couple more tidbits: T.F.D. features Rich Hoak (legendary drummer of grind godfathers Brutal Truth) and Translation Loss Records has been partnered up with them for all of these so far (which should give you an idea of the quality and direction).  I’m looking forward to more quality releases from this camp.
