Sorry about the spotty reception this week. Lots of stuff going on, none of it having anything to do with music.

One piece of old news I’m just getting to now is Diode, a new project by Shawn Foree of Digital Leather and David Hansen of Worried Mothers. Their first released track is called “Peck on the Lips,” and is available via YouTube (Below). They call their sound “industrial shit-noise.” It is indeed industrial. Just how shitty it is, well, that’s your call. According to Chris Aponick in The Reader, Diode is planning a full-length on Crash Symbols sometime in the future.

Speaking of The Reader, this week’s column is a travelogue of my recent trip to Manhattan and the hotel problems I encountered that made my vacation that much more hot and sweaty. Read it in this week’s issue of The Reader or online right here.

Couple shows worth mentioning…

John Klemmensen and the Party returns to Benson tonight at The Waiting Room. Joining him is The Love Technicians and Minutes to Miles Just $5, 9 p.m.

Also tonight, Underwater Dream Machine headlines at fabulous O’Leaver’s with the debut of Reagan Roeder’s new band Wild Kingdom. 9:30 and the nice price: FREE.
