Liam Grant returns to town with his amazing brand of American Primitive guitar mastery.
Nod and Beastview Maul are each releasing brand new CDs as well!
Beastview Maul is comprised of one half of the band Pengo. Joe Tunis & John Schoen scour your skull with deep tones and shards of spikey sounds. Waves of wild notes and broken FM radio frequencies tuned into the years 1975 to 1982 do a backflip into the sweet & sour swamp of your subconscious mind. Your 3rd ear is gonna get a workout!
Nod
Since they first began playing together in a Rochester, NY, basement, Nod has been cranking out complex funk rock with an undercurrent of noise and chaos. Members Joe Sorriero (guitar, vocals), Tim Pollard (bass), Brian Shafer (drums), and Hugh Edwards (guitar) have shown off their groove craziness on a series of self-produced albums since 1990, including two full-length releases, Nod in 1992 and 1995's I'm Around. In 1998, they released their first CD with Smells Like Records, Magnetic Anomaly, an album that seems to synthesize the styles of all of their previous releases: each song exploring different aural territories and textures. Their follow-up CD released in 1999 by Smells Like Records, Radio Giddy-Up, continues along the same vibe, with a tighter and more developed sound.
