Search and Destroy: Kill Rock Stars

destroy -- pretty much everything else, especially all of the "wordcore" torture and second rate riot grrl. comet gain will be preserved, but only with the hope that krs will see it fit to release casino classics is the u.s. there are a few other things i might possibly spare given my mood and the time of day including: bratmobile, the julie ruin record, mocket, two or three godheadsilo songs and maybe even the peechees. and i guess we can keep unwound around too, although someone even more indie than me will have to defend them.

so i guess i've managed to preserve almost the entire catalog although that's certainly not what i set out to do. really, there's very little that is vital on krs, but there are quite a few things that aren't horrible.

Search: All the bigtime Riot Grrl stuff: Bikini Kill, Bratmobile, et al. Plus the K.H. cover of I Wish I was Him, everything touched by Corin Tucker.

Destroy: Yow... what was the band with 7 guitars and two drummers and no bass?

destroy: most of the wordcore stuff, that HORRIBLE AWFUL ICK second huggy bear full-length, free kitten, star pimp 'seraphim 280z.' also i just think sleater-kinney are not really all that, but they probably aren't worthy of, you know, DESTRUCTION.

ps: that band you are referring to, jimmy the mod, is kreviss.

seach: bikini kill, heavens to betsy, team dresch *though they are tech on candyass/chainsaw, krs released some of their early stuff*, excuse 17, and sleater-kinney

destroy: star-presta, the gossip, and most wordcore

**azalea

I remember Kreviss, and I thought that the idea was inspiring, at least.

One of the Kreviss chicks is now in a sweet twee pop group called Vancouver Nights. I have the CD and it's surprisingly good. Not on KRS, tho.

you take that back, ned!

"Call the Doctor" - sleater-kinney is fuckin great.

destroy: i saw the need a couple years ago and while they get my respect and all that the singer's freaky eye rolling sums up how i felt about them (based on the show).

I STAND BY MY BELIEF. But note I didn't say *everything* else on those labels. ;-)

Did anyone else hear this posthumous EP from Explode into Colors out of Portland, OR? Pretty great, groovy dub-punk stuff.

Marnie Stern is phenom upon initial listening but the fret-tapping schtick gets old extremely, surprisngly fast. I'm less impressed by her "solos" and more wish she would employ it with a more pop mindset. Mostly it's just taking the "noise" subgenre a little too literally

Saw her live the other month tho, great show & she's cute as all hell. okbyenow

Also, she's funny.

thank you internet

Him and fuckin Anton Levay are tight bros... from WAY back when

for whatever reason, I turned on notifications from KRS on youtube, and was notified of this new video and single from Shaylee called "Audrey" and it was so good I listened to it 50 times in about 3 days, and today I've been going down a Shaylee rabbit hole and I haven't been so impressed with somebody's knack for indie pop since discovering Amy Linton or Rose Melberg or Calvin Johnson or Sam Cooked (yes Shaylee is from Oly WA)

What's next KRS??

*Coomes damn phone. Although Sam Cooked is making me laugh
