••• WIVES •••
The Wives plan to tour the universe infinitely upon release of their debut full length, 'Erect The Youth Problem' on June 27th via Sweet Nothing. Clubs, halls, basements, houses, turntables, eardrums, hearts and minds will never be the same when they do! WIVES are a young and charismatic trio that seems to have revitalized the L.A. underground overnight. Despite the fact that WIVES sounds more akin to sneering cynical noisemeisters Shellac, Lightning Bolt and Born Against, the band's earnest energy and charm is much more reminiscent of DC punk legends Minor Threat. Yes, that's a bold statement, for sure. But, anyone that has seen WIVES live will concur -- there's an inherent and intangible infectiousness to its personality that can inspire and revitalize hardened music fans. Combined influential nods and musical elements of past greats like Rapeman, Bastro, Girls Vs Boys, Black Flag and the Minutemen are mixed with the contemporary likeness of Lightning Bolt, The Locust or Arab On Radar. One of a handful of truly re-vitalizing new punk bands from the USA at this moment in time.

••• SODDING WOLF'S HEAD •••
Worship at the altar of Black Sabbath's riff-cock. With Slintesque parts. Featuring a new 4-piece lineup with added heavy. Wimps and posers - there's the door ------------>

••• TEAM BRICK •••
Team Brick will be performing an acapella set (maybe with some drums) - so it will feature some shouting, screaping and throat humming. Excite this.
