 stuff to shake your medulla oblongata to. Monday, November 17, 2008 lexington, kentucky has had some effective noisemakers throughout its underground music history. dating back to strange one-offs like the Jet Men, through the new wavey Chinese, to the punky Ministry of Truth, Vale of Tears and Active Ingredients. in the heydey of the wrocklage early 90s underground there was Chump, Penis Your Majesty, The Hookers, BabyShit Brown, Massey Ferguson, my loud little Ted Bundy's Volkswagon and the mysterious Lance Russell Five. then came the superstarry Hair Police, the current Tight Leather and this batch of enigmatic tunesters, Warmer Milks. full disclosure, Mikey, the voice, principal, ceo of the band used to come to wrocklage every sunday that there was an all ages show, hell, i'm old, he don't know me i'm guessing but i know he earned his stripes from skate punk to record store geek to roadie to...to, well, artiste. but old and out of touch as i am compared to you hipsters, i'll say this, Warmer Milks vomit-licious noise cum freakfolk meanderings should give us all hope that creativity is alive and well in the land of lame. they have a new full-length available at the mighty impressive sub-underground animal disguise recordings label...get one. Enjoy this latest little WM tune Wild Spring...courtesy of the world-wide-wipoff interweb and me... Dancing Wall PV. Diana (Mark L clone) Ilford HP5+. p.s. i apologize for the above list, less than definitive when it comes to great local music but off the top of my noggin, these bands stuck.
