crosss

CROSSS is a Canadian proto-metal/psych garage hard rock band. And they are really great! Their two split vinyls, a 7″ with garage punk band Astral Gunk

and an 8″ with garage punk band Soupcans, (but in this case their song is like an early Hellhammer track)

were released recently. The first on Pleasence, the second one on Bruised Tongue Records.

 

A Little Big Man Died

Jazz singer Little Jimmy Scott died at his age of 88. His most famous performance was in the last episode of Twin Peaks, where he has sung Sycamore Trees. Lyrics: David Lynch, Music: Angelo Badalamenti

littlejimmyHe suffered from Kallmann’s syndrome, a rare hereditary condition, that preventing him from reaching puberty, he stopped growing, and his voice never changed from a boy soprano’s. He got his start singing in the church choir. He first rose to fame when he sang lead in the Lionel Hampton Band for 1950’s hit „Everybody’s Somebody’s Fool.” He went in solo in 1951. Along the way, he gained the praise of such peers as Ray Charles, Billie Holiday and Nancy Wilson. His career faded by the late 1960s and he returned to his native Cleveland to work as a hospital orderly, shipping clerk and as an elevator operator in a hotel. He came back in the limelight in the 1990s through Lou Reed, who recruited him to sing back-up vocals on his song „Power and Glory” on his album Magic and Loss.  Throughout his six-decade-plus career, Scott also performed with the likes of Michael Stipe, Antony & the Johnsons, Charlie Parker, Sarah Vaughan, Charles Mingus and Quincy Jones, among many others.

Fresh Rattling From The Basement

fagcopcut

One rnr666 boss Pali said that Nathan Loud Fag Cop singer’s new songs are „very mucking good!” Lo-fi garage punk rattling straight from the basement

Fag Cop (sometimes Ex-Fag Cop) is a raw punk band in the middle of the States in Lawrence, Kansas, where the most viable musical life is to be found between Chicago and Denver – was written by New York Times in 2005. Maybe it is a side-effect of a nuclear attack by Soviets in 1983. Yes, nuclear attack, of course. It was televised.
