LYDIA LUNCH RETROVIRUS - 3 x 3 EP (2015)




















Depending on how old you are, you may or may not know Lydia Lunch. She has been in and around the noise rock scene since the late 70s, and was part of the No Wave movement. She has done spoken word performances, has been involved with many writings and films, and has also collaborated musically with people like Clint Ruin / Foetus, Thurston Moore, No Trend, Suicide, H.O.F. (Halo of Flies), as well as tons others. You can find a wiki page or whatever other interweb info if you want to find more info than you want to know. Check it out.

For this 4-song EP she snags up Weasel Walter who was in bands like The Flying Luttenbachers, Hatewave and Lake of Dracula, Tim Dahl (Child Abuse) and Bob Bert who has been with Sonic Youth, Bewitched, Action Swingers, Chrome Cranks and Pussy Galore. And together they churn out some amazing pigfuck noise rock in the vein of Pussy Galore, Honeymoon Killers, Sonic Youth, Birthday Party. You get me?

This is just a 4 song teaser, but the bandcamp page has a pre-order for a new full length called 'Urge To Kill' and one new song. So check that out as well. I'll try to remember to get this on the blog when I know more. Coooool!
(Self-released (as far as I can tell) - 2015)
