Here we are in the holiday season again and what I seem to post frequently is Killdozer’s Oh Little Town of Deathlehem…why not though , it’s a bitchen tune by one of my favorites and ’round here it’s spinning on the turntable (from the wonderful Hardcore Holiday comp LP). This year I ran across another classic from a show that I loved in my teenage days, New Wave Theater (look it up , super cool and the host was mysteriously murdered). There are three Fear tunes that I can find from the set that they played on the show, I wonder if there are more, but this one is just perfect…
The Five Spotted Hawkmoth, in all it’s glory from a pic that I may have posted a year or two ago, but now I know what the fuck it is thank to an interactive site Big Shawn turned me onto…iNaturalist. If you like to take pictures of this wonderful planet we live on (or what’s left of it), you should think about joining the site (if ya do let me know and we can “follow” each other). It’s quiet here this winter, nature wise, as everything is sleeping, except when Mother Nature is snoring or farting or something, and we get an icy blizzard. I know I’m going to curse myself by saying this but it’s been a mild winter thus far…we shall see.
Stumbled upon this band on the wise and powerful, creepy mind control fucking youtube suggested feed. Ended up listening to them for a couple of hours. I don’t know enough about these types of bands to suggest a (sub) genre, but it’s like young Grateful Dead type guys doing a progressive almost heavy jazz thing. Lot’s of really good instrumentalists and instrumentalism…easy to groove to, but only musicians really understand the full extent of what’s going on…
King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard – Sleep Drifter (Live on KEXP)
In Mustard Relics Records news, #7 has been sent off to be cut, so 5-7 weeks and this dream of mine will be fulfilled, or realized as I get to release a band that had a huge impact on me…in a way that only a 50 year old fanboy can understand. Below are the links to get at Zach, the guy behind the lathe company I prefer to use…

Christianity is such an easy target, because of it’s dark, ugly 2000 year history, nothing like Jesus envisioned, I’m sure. I could go on and on about that, but I wanted to end this on a positive note…my pal Jeff Langdon (the Leftoverking) suggested this holiday feel-good-ness…
