Saturday, December 12, 2009. Don't Need No Spirit. So this is Christmas. No no, please don't scurry away, I promise you: no more John Lennon! Are we friends again? Have you stopped screaming? I was looking back at my Chrimbo posts from last year. And I was struck by how Grinchian and grumpy they were! Then we went to the Rhizome Cafe. Since I'm of such good humour at the moment, Dearest Friends, may I invite you to share some noisy good cheer in the garage? Dear Santa Claus (buy here. Hey look, it's.

Monday, February 15, 2010. Love Is Not A Commodity. If you've been round here before on or about February 1. But despite my spite, I still do love you all, so here are a few apposite tunes for us to frug to in a cool-ass-funk, post-punk-with-extra-added goth stylee. Mwah, mwah! Or get the album versh here. Put on constant rotation at the mighty WLIR. Back in the days when it would "Dare To Be Different," this is one of those tracks that covertly shaped and sculpted my musical sensibilities as a wee lad.

Thursday, February 25, 2010. My First Purple Heart. It seems I was wounded (hence the self-awarded Purple Heart. It is actually getting very serious out there; along with a squadron of others, Dearest Coxon of To Die By Your Side. Recently had his blog shut down. You can read about it all in this Guardian article. A fantastic Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. Programme about this very subject. It's a war folks, a war for culture. Who was It [aka EMI]. It's a war folks, a war for culture. It's Gonna Be Us.

http://www.cerebralmetalhead.com/2010/10/exhausted-prayer-dreaming-dead-fall.html
Wednesday, October 20, 2010. Exhausted Prayer / Dreaming Dead - Fall Into Ruin Tour Begins Tonight. I'm coming out of semi-hibernation to help spread the word about a West Coast tour that I would see every night had I the time, financial means and ability not to come off as creepy for treating underground metal bands like the Grateful Dead. Exhausted Prayer share provenance (Los Angeles) and a drummer (Mike Caffell) with Dreaming Dead, whose debut. Worst of All Possible Worlds. You also need to see.

Tuesday, August 24, 2010. DIS - Critical Failure. Deep Six Records, 2010). It took me a long time to understand why D.I.S. (Destroyed In Seconds) guitarist Leon del Muerte would ever willingly quit. After seeing him play in Phobia and. Just signed to Relapse! I started to understand. And D.I.S.'s debut. Clinches it: Del Muerte prefers the direct to the oblique, the visceral to the heady. And that means unfiltered death metal, punk, thrash and grind. Guitarist Bruce Reeves played in SoCal grind stalwarts.

Cerebral Metalhead: Ovrcast 5th Anniversary - Friday the 13th in L.A.!
http://www.cerebralmetalhead.com/2010/08/ovrcast-5th-anniversary-friday-13th-in.html
Wednesday, August 11, 2010. Ovrcast 5th Anniversary - Friday the 13th in L.A! As the price of a concert heads towards nil, my interest in attending it often heads the same direction. Why would a worthwhile band choose to play a slapped-together free show when they stand to make more money from a door charge at a proper club? And if there's a major sponsor footing the bill, who am I really supporting by attending? Are on tour like 580 days a year, so you know they're well-oiled. Huntress (reviewed. Are no...

Cerebral Metalhead: 5/1/11 - 6/1/11

Monday, May 09, 2011. GO: Midnight/Saviours/Lightning Swords of Death, 5/14/11 @ The Roxy in L.A. How about we pretend that it hasn't been five months since I've posted. Agreed? More than any record though, I've missed going to metal shows over the last couple months. That's why I'm looking forward to Scion's next free metal matinee, coming up this Saturday at the Roxy in L.A. And also why I'm going to insist that you join me. And City of Devils. Will provide the soot-choked atmosphere. If there is a...

pogo a go-go: It's Still Paul Haig Day Over Here
http://pogoagogo.blogspot.com/2010/04/its-still-paul-haig-day-over-here.html
Tuesday, April 06, 2010. It's Still Paul Haig Day Over Here. By my watch it's 11:10 PM here in Vancouver, which means I'm still in time to add my voice to the second annual Paul Haig. Day The event was born out of a DMCA. Takedown notice received by the marvelous JC, aka The Vinyl Villain. Rather than retell the story, pop on over here. So then, why do I care enough to take part, and why should you? OK, to distill it down to the key points:. Paul has become quite disenchanted with his first band's output...
