QUITTER'S CLUB
QUITTER'S CLUB - QUITTER'S CLUB (1994)
One of my favorite records of the 90s. Ferocious. So obscure that nobody's taken a picture of the album cover and uploaded it, at least not that I can seem to find. Did a split 7" with Johnboy, that's how I heard about them. Has a comparable sound pallate to, say, Shellac, yet much more frenetic. Pummelling rhythm section, scorching guitars. Highly recommended. _alibi

Panel Donor - 'Lobedom & Global' (1995)
If the band's name and album title here don't tip you off that this is music made by nerds and for nerds, song titles like 'Bobafetish' will clue you in to this fact. It consists of Indie-pop from 1995. The guitars are especially creative, lots of strange chords and interplay, executed with a hefty amount of slides and wammy bar action. It's dated, to be sure. I was listening to this perhaps when I should have been listening to more metal as a teenager, nonetheless, the song structures and rhythm section sizzled my bacon as a youngin. Posting because I'm stuck on the 1990s this week. -dj alibi

BORIS 2011
BORIS - 'NEW ALBUM' (2011)
BORIS - 'ATTENTION PLEASE' (2011)
BORIS - 'HEAVY ROCKS' (2011)
3 new albums so far this year for Boris. Attention please is all female vocals, I especially like the last song. New Album is pure Jpop, autotune vocals, roto-toms, beats that seem like they belong on a Justin Timberlake Album... if this doesn't make you feel like a repressed mischievous teenager in Japan, then I don't know what will. Heavy Rocks is more heavy hitting, I especially like the second to last song. Boris seem like they are just as happy in the recording studio as my old man is in the grocery store. My old man is a grocery store swan.
