Oh Messy Life – March 24, 2023 Show Notes
Track 1: Wombo – Regular Demon
Might have found this via a Mastodon recommendation? Made me think a tiny bit of the band Ludus.
Track 2: Landowner – Extreme Youth
Saw someone on Mastodon saying they wanted to start a band that sounds like this, so I gave them a listen.
Track 3: The Drin – Eyes Only for Space
Cool to hear some interesting stuff coming out of Cincinnati.
Track 4: The Pyramids – Birth / Speed / Merging, Pt. 3 & 4
The title track from their 1976 album.
Track 5: Takeshi Terauchi – Tsugaru Jongara Bushi
Bandcamp had a nice write up on this new compilation of Takeshi Terauchi tracks.
Track 6: TEKE::TEKE – Garakuta
The preview track from their upcoming album Hagata.
Track 7: Old 97’s – Turn Off The TV
I hadn’t checked in on the Old 97’s in a while. The Kids and The Hall and Pixies references pulled me into this track.
Track 8: Songs For Moms – Don’t Live With Your Lover Or Love With Your Liver
Many years ago I saw Songs For Moms play a show on former bus turned into a tiny venue by a member of A Minor Forest. Then a bit after that they came down and played on Wednesday Night Live and I fell in love with their songs.
Track 9: Trainwreck Riders – Billy Grey Hairs
When Songs For Moms played on Wednesday Night Live the split the show with the Trainwreck Riders so I thought I’d check in on Trainwreck Riders as well.
Track 10: Secret Emchy Society – I Wish I Was In Texas With You
Another track from the Gold Country / Country Gold album. And it turns out Emchy was able to tune in to the show.
Track 11: Aila Trio – Rockets
Think I heard this one via Bandcamp promo email.
Track 12: The Lost Trio – Paranoid
The sound of Dan Seamans’ bass on these Lost Trio recordings always amazes me. Also, if you’d like more Ozzy covers, Gherkin Picklewater just did a whole show of them.
Track 13: Shigeto – Afro Cuban Band “The Moon is the Daughter of the Devil” Shigeto Edit
Somehow this modern remix of a disco era tune was really working for me.
Track 14: Aníbal Velásquez – SANTO AMOR
This Salsa jam was also working for me.
Track 15: SUDAMÉRICA – Yo no sé, señor
Think I found this one via Bandcamp promo email.
Track 16: Whitney’s Playland – Sketches Of Dino
Ending things off with this lovely tune from a local San Francisco indie band.
