We Fought the Big One's Blurbs |
About me:
"The most consistently interesting and remarkable dj night going." --- BrightestYoungThings.com, April 2008
Named Editor's Pick for WashingtonPost.com in April & Feb. 2007 & voted by SPIN magazine as one of the 101 hottest things to do in the US Aug. 2006 (but don't let that deter you!) We are a monthly celebration of moody & off-kilter post-punk, shoegaze and left-of-center underground independent music! We're talking about stuff mostly from the late 70s and early 80s (does it get any better than 1981? Nope. Don't think so.), but even some stuff before and after that. Hell, we've even been known to champion current artists that embody the DIY, anything-goes spirit! Of course, we're pretty chuffed about the U.K. post-punk scene but we love bands from the States and also France, Japan, Belgium, Germany, Australia---hell, we've even been known to play bands from places where Kathy Lee Gifford runs her infamous sweatshops!
THE NEXT BIG ONE IS FRIDAY, AUG 1 AT MARX! WE WILL BE JOINED BY LEGENDARY DIY ARCHIVIST, HYPED TO DEATH RECORD LABEL OWNER CHUCK WARNER! DON'T MISS IT!
BTW, DO YOU HAVE A COPY OF OUR LATEST MIX CD? AS USUAL, IT WAS LOVINGLY AND PAINSTAKINGLY CURATED FOR YOUR LISTENING ENJOYMENT. STOP BY THE DJ BOOTH AND ASK US FOR ONE. IT INCLUDES MANY OF OUR ALL-TIME FAVORITE GREAT POST-PUNK AND UNDERGROUND INDIE--ALL OF WHICH HAS NEVER GOTTEN THE RECOGNITION SO JUSTLY DESERVED.
