Mondo Barbara: I AM AN OLD MAN
http://mondobarbara.blogspot.com/2010/06/i-am-old-man.html
There alotta creeps out there. I be seein' them. Thursday, 17 June 2010. I AM AN OLD MAN. Here is some more garbage to read! There was some other stuff too, of course, but they were more promo/fluff pieces to fill in gaps. Are we still mates? Brain Children are a fascinating musical proposition. Brain Children is the brain child of Michael Mate and Maxwell Crumb, two Melbourne music veterans who’ve completely ruined their lives by relentlessly peddling their musical wares across the globe. Well, take hea...

There alotta creeps out there. I be seein' them. Monday, 26 July 2010. I WAS SPEECHLESS, MATE. I COULDN'T SPEAK. Would you believe it? I'm just always writin' shit. This life of mine is just CRAZY! It's fucking intense. I'm just so unpredictable. Everyone at the office agrees. Brats ' 1980' LP/ The lost tapes LP. Before King Diamond started paintin' his face and slammin' his eggs in the car door, the dudes from Merciful fate had a different singer, different songs and a different band name- BRATS! A an o...

Mondo Barbara: Vice verses
http://mondobarbara.blogspot.com/2009/06/vice-verses.html
There alotta creeps out there. I be seein' them. Sunday, 7 June 2009. A few things here and there for Vice Australia. These are my reviews. From the last two issues. A few of these did not make it into the Technology. Issue, but I have decided to include them anyway. Writing for Vice is an interesting experience. All critiques are written according to the Vice style guide. There is also a Tough Troubles. Interview, but you'll have to source a copy for that. 8216;’Flick the Vs’’. Iron Lung Records USA.

The Attention: June 2008
http://nowthatihavetheattention.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Where good ideas go to die. Sunday, June 29, 2008. THE JURY - Eyesores Come Alive. Part of an email from Mike (vocals) from The Jury. "To provide some context, in the picture where Joe is soloing on his knees and people look like they're laughing - they are. We started our set with a cover of "Taking Care of Business" by Bachman Turner Overdrive, which is by far the most important thing any of us have ever done as musicians or as people.". THE ATTENTION: Who is in the band, what do they play? Doesn't hav...

Mondo Barbara: November 2008
http://mondobarbara.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
There alotta creeps out there. I be seein' them. Monday, 10 November 2008. MIKE WILLIAMS INTERVIEW IX. I interviewed Mike Williams IX via-email for UNBELIEVABLY BAD. Magazine. I like this exchange. Mike has a very captivating writing style-short sentences, effective descriptions and that distinct southern drawl. This is an example of an email interview that actually works. Where to begin with a band like Eyehategod? Fights, substance abuse, misanthropy. You finally got those rotten teeth fixed, huh?

Mondo Barbara: February 2007
http://mondobarbara.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html
There alotta creeps out there. I be seein' them. Wednesday, 7 February 2007. Lebenden Toten - State Laughter (Feral Ward). It is sux when you spill half of your cider. All over your 4-track. It's bad enough when your mate Tix falls asleep with a smoke in his fingers and almost burns down your goddamn brown sofa. Your copy of Swankys-control and them Nuclear Addicts. Back patches what vez done; but lubricating your 4-track, shit, how are you going to record your piss-raw, sub-demo quality records? Swift-o...

The Attention: RIP Schifosi
http://nowthatihavetheattention.blogspot.com/2008/05/rip-schifosi.html
Where good ideas go to die. Wednesday, May 21, 2008. Possibly topping my list of regrets (at least as far as procrastination on fanzines goes) is the fact that this interview I did in 2004 with Melbourne's Schifosi was never published. I'm quite positive that Bart (bass) has never fully forgiven me. I did at least make a sad attempt at getting it out there by passing it on to Dan of Distort zine. To try and curb the disappointment, but he never used it, probably due to its timely nature. Lyrically, a few...
