Yeehaw!

 

Honestly I don't know much about this band at all except for the fact that they only existed from 2013 (?) - 2015 which some might say is short some might say is the right amount some of the members are now pursuing other music careers in completely different genres, I think the lead singer is a tattoo artist now but I'm not quite sure and honestly am not too interested in digging very deep in, from the bandcamp page these are / were the members

Dylan Ewen: Vocals
Matt Politoski: Guitar/Vocals
Cooper Leardi: Guitar
Sai Boddupalli: Bass/Vocals
Alex Pickert: Drums/Vocals

"Surreal pop-punk from Boston, MA. Potentially satirical, potentially the best band you've ever heard." - LastFM

They have less than 500 scrobbles on LastFM which is pretty insane considering they released their second album on broken world media which was known for putting out indie / alt / emo in the early to mid 2010s.

their 2nd album I'm not including as it's free on bandcamp still even now, (link below)

Rock Songs

I am including their first album here which I can't find anywhere online so I uploaded to Youtube and also mega so you can download.

so for the first time in presumably a long time, heres "Demotivational Speaker"

Demotivational Speaker (2014)

1) Life is a Chore

2) What Now

3) Southern Gothic

4) Pixie

5) Everyday Is A Compromise

6) Alternative Rock

7) The Harder To Try

8) Dim

Krill

 

KRILL FOREVER KRILL FOREVER KRILL FOREVER

Krill was a punk / post punk / DIY / fucking awesome band formed in 2010 and ending in 2015 with the band members as follows: Jonah Furman - Vocals / bass, Aaron Ratoff - Guitar, and Luke Pyenson - Drums.

I can't tell you how much I love and admire this band, these guys did DIY the right way, making music that is meaningful and thought provoking through ear blasting music that hits you in your chest, they also donated to multiple non profits throughout the band's lifetime and are advocates for equality and it shows through their lyrics as well as their actions.

these guys unfortunately broke up in 2015 as said above but they are still Boston legends and have a huge cult following surrounding them. I can't remember off the top of my head too much info about the members besides the obvious one that Jonah is the younger brother of Ezra Furman (yes the one you're thinking of), Ezra Furman of Ezra Furman and the Harpoons which is another phenomenal band I most likely won't be covering on this blog. Luke Pyenson is now the drummer of Frankie Cosmos which is notable and also cool.

below I'm including Krill's Discography as well as a spotify link to their new band "Knot" which shares the same members, with the exception of Luke.

Enjoy! Especially Lucky Leaves which is my fav album by them; and don't forget ....

Dazey and The Scouts

 

 

"Dazey and the Scouts started off as nothing more than an ephemeral live set phenomenon. Whispers of their performative glory wafted amidst Boston punks’ cigarette smoke; far off-cries of F***, Marry, Kill were heard emanating from a nearby basement. In answering the studio-dweller’s inquiry as to who this unapologetically third-wave feminist four piece was and what they sounded like.

austin corona - drums

lea jaffe - vocals, guitar

otto klammer - vocals, bass

brennan wedl - vocals, guitar" - LastFM

I got into these guys sometime around 2018 if I remember right, they were exactly what I needed, punk / garage sounds and vocals plus lyrics that don't take themselves too seriously; lyrically they remind me of some music you make with your friends to pass the time; kinda like Rozwell kid imo but I know that isn't even close to describe them.

I don't know much about them as they made an album and left almost right after (in typical DIY fashion), the only things I do know are Austin (drums) was in a Santa Cruz, Ca band called "Subpar" (small world) and is making lofi music under the name "Lilacs", as for the other members they all have either solo projects or full band projects with sporadic releases, I might add their solo projects later but I just wanted to get this post out ASAP

I hope to have these guys perform soon again live, FUCK 2020 WE WANT HOUSE SHOWS!
