they are criminally underrated in my book. Jimmy Putnam's lyrics are so perverse and cryptic and funny. I'm with you Kyle, what gives with the hate?

Their instore as a threepiece at Aquarius was luvverly.
Performer drunken-ness is a key factor in the musical outcome of a given Radar Bros. evening.

They may not be groundbreaking, but everything can't be groundbreaking. They're just good.

Bump.
And they've got a new album out - "Auditorium" - and it's been out for a few months actually. Has anyone heard it? Is it any good? The lyrics are 'political' apparantly. Hmm.

Okay, some great news on the Dick Slessig Combo front. First: Guitarist Mark Lightcap has an instagram account called (um) "dickslessig". Dunno why I couldn't find this before but here it is. https://t.co/25oxTntgpI— Jay Babcock (@jaywbabcock) April 5, 2020
Jon L who used to post here in the mid-aughts mentions a "Live at the Yerb" CDr that I can't find any non-ILx reference to.

A good recommendation, I need something to fill the slowcore void in my listening left by the cancellation of the Red House Painters. Jim Putnam's new Mt Wilson Repeater album is well worth checking out.
