The Italian Husbands are celebrating a new release with a performance in Vancouver, BC, Canada this Saturday, December 20th.

Here's the details:

The Italian Husbands, romantics of the trash-core, will bring you the deep pervasiveness in the form of ultra lo-fi ritualism and hippy nihilism. They will be releasing their new disc, "Possession," at this event, a 4 track disc featuring gems that blasted out the walls of Sludge House to weary neighbors, the passerby crazy meatheads and the ever gracious audiences that filled the living room of that vile home during the shows that were held there. Packaged in stark black and white, this disc encompasses the rage and aggression of the rental crunch of oil town, Alberta. It also holds moments of intense bliss in hard fucking times.

The entire history of Sludge House, while too long to list here, can be barely summed up by the fact that it was the home and birth place to not only the Italian Husbands as tangible beings but the birth of the expression of joy and anger, manifested simultaneously in metaphoric and ecstatic moments.

Also, Burrow Owl will bring harsh noise pins and needles style and Set Sail to Sea will dampen the walls and bookshelves of Solder and Sons with thick layers of down-tuned doom sludge.

Solder and Sons is on the corner of Main Street and Powell. The show will be an early one. Show up around 7:30pm and chill. We ask that you make a small donation for the bands, but we welcome all music lovers regardless of financial offerings.

This is presented by Solder and Sons along with nOnCapable Recordings.

The post 9/11 world

The post 9/11 world

I want to extend thanks to all those who came out to the ridiculously advertised "a party crasher's party." Given the level of intoxication, I'm sure many of you crashed the party twice, even if you don't remember it.

I know all of the performers (Roy Gary Biv, Eamon McGrath and Gin Theft, Corvid Lorax and Holzkopf) were delighted at the full house in Edmonton, AB's tiny Wunderbar. I know the party dragged itself onto the street, leaving streaks of cigarette butts and saliva, and nOnCapable and the affiliates that pulled off this show (Roy Gary Biv, and the giant crew who helped poster, email and web-post this show into successful realms) would like to extend thanks to the staff and management at Wunderbar for allowing this scene to descend upon their corner pub. October is gearing up to be a huge month. nOnCapable affiliated artists the Italian Husbands, Holzkopf and others will be tearing up the Edmonton scene at a variety of college radio (CJSR 88.5FM)sponsored gigs. If you are an out of town, or even out of country reader, please make a pilgrimage to see the last, best Western frontiers of noise.

Uterozzzaaa to release album with nOnCapable in near future!!!

I had first heard of this band through the breakcore grapevine. I heard their music, contacted them and shortly after got one of the best demo packages in the mail I have ever heard. The album is now awaiting release as a split with Holzkopf. The other half of the album has yet to be written.

Uterozzzaaa have the kind of over the top (un)sensibility that many will immediately associate with the stereotypical outrageous Japanese extremity and weirdness of the Island nation's experimental/punk/noise underground. Their fashion sense is straight out of Mad Max: leather, face paint, post-apocalyptic warrior tribe wear. They pose holding guns, straddling blow-up dolls and they perform a violent dervish of howling human and electronic screams. While their music screeches on, their performance delves into the realm of violent participation in the mosh pit by throwing lit fireworks into the circle of sweat, bodies and fury and other times they include rather confrontational excursions into s&m that would get them banned from most clubs in the Western hemisphere.

Their sound is best described as everything the entire digital hardcore genre has said in the past 15 years, only stated in one brief 2 to 3 minute burst. Beyond that influence, you can hear the signature syncopated heart throb dance-hall beat clashing with jungle breaks turned up to blast beat speed. Old school NES melodies, 3 chord punk riffs, sampled cinema music and boy-girl trade-off grind style vocals ride atop this cluster-fuck of crashing cymbals and heart attack low end. Vicious, mosh-able, dance-able: psych-punk for urban critical mass.

While recently reducing from duo to solo act, with members going different directions, Uterozzzaaa remains as harsh, cacophonous and confrontational as ever. Below is a link to one of the last gigs they played together a few months back in Tokyo. Enjoy!



peace, love & noise

3rd anniversery and transition to blog

hello!

nOnCapable Recordings is making the slow transition to blog after 3 full years of active production. the label will still sporatically release the best in global indie, psychadelic, electronic and improvised music and it will definately still put on shows.

in its three year history, the label has played host to releases from the Osaka psychadelic underground, the bleak electronic experiments fermented in the Canadian praries, the blistering Eastern European breakcore scene, as well as parties, fashion shows, art shows and semi-legal outdoor parties.

the blog form simply is easier for the humble webmaster to keep y'all up to date on shows, band and artist info and tour dates. i hope you enjoy the posts.

peace
