Oh yeah, it’s FREE
The connection between the bands playing this free Tuesday night show appears to be “music as assault.” There isn’t a single band in this lineup afraid to get ugly, whether it’s Mutating Meltdown’s anti-consumerist synth-organ squelch or ELVIS’ in-your-face apathy. Low Red Center and Coma In Algiers both take cues from proto-industrial alienators Cabaret Voltaire, and though Diagonals’ angular surf guitars and tuneful Farfisa leads might mark them as the odd band out, one look at the lyric sheet for “Neil Diamond Blues”—which details the Jewish Elvis’ preference to fuck, run, and leave the girl his “whole paycheck”—proves the band can offend with the best of ‘em.

Answering Machine Recordings is a rad new record label in Austin, TX run by Chad A from Low Red Center/Mutating Meltdown/Zom Zoms etc. Their first release is a Low Red Center 7″ entitled “Momentary Switch”.
From their website:
Answering Machine Recordings is pleased to provide for your pleasure its first release, Low Red Center’s Momentary Switch/Alles Klar seven inch single. This is LRC’s first vinyl release as well, featuring tracks unavailable elsewhere. Low Red Center is Austin’s most senior functioning minimal synthesizer group. Using all-analog electronics, the loosely composed unit steps from a cliff and coasts the cold air currents, out over an ocean brimming with whales and sea foam.
The 7″ is available for purchase on the Answering Machine website for $8 ppd and is limited to 200 copies.
