Coachwhips - Double Death [2006]


Coachwhips is an old project fronted by Thee Oh Sees's John Dwyer (guitar and vocals), who also brings John Harlow (drums) and Mary Ann McNamara (keyboard/tambourine) along for the wild ride. As a man who's felt like he's calmed down on the alcohol, drugs and going insane, Dwyer crafted this project in a state that was very much the opposite. Double Death is a collection of B-sides, covers and whatnot released a while after the band's time, which, like the music they performed, was wild, raucous and much too short.


Les Rallizes Dénudés - Metal Machine Music 82 [2006]

Metal Machine Music '82 is a video recording of their show at Jeio Gijuku University. If you're not familiar with Les Rallizes Dénudés they are a Japanese psychedelic/noise rock band most notable for their bootlegs (since they never released an official studio recording). Highly recommended for fans of The Velvet Underground (highly recommended for anyone really). If you haven't listened to Les Rallizes Dénudés I'd suggest starting with '77 Live which I also include a download for in this post.
