21st one! gospel edition!

Since my allergy-ridden voice is too nasal for the vocal parts you've all come to know and ignore in favor of the music, this edition of the Brasserie will be "hosted" by Willie Wilson and his enlightened, progressive, dare I say charming views concerning the GLBT movement. If the Internet is good for anything beyond the acquisition of pornography, it's good for finding and exposing total idiots who base their hateful, mean-spirited opinions on a religion that more or less commands you to be nice to people (well, the New Testament does, anyway).

Here's the 'cast!

playlist:
Thug Murder - Dice
Paper Dragons - The Beginning of the End
the Rimshots - Cold Sweat
Nunstalker - Luxury Point
the Arkhams - Insane

Black Panda - Ruedas de Fuego

20th One!

Hi, kids! Sorry for the exactly-one-month delay, but Audacity had the, well, audacity to erase this thing a couple of times. We're all set now, though. And good thing too, because I've been painting the town red at shows lately and getting lots of new music. I'm becoming a huge fan of Vitamin X and Pulling Teeth, to say nothing of Deep Sleep.

Here's the 'cast!

*The song listed in the playlist above is the correct one - I recorded that vocal break before changing the playlist around a bit and forgot to rerecord it. Oops!

update!

Still working on the next edition of the Brasserie, of course, but I did get published again. Read my essay, titled "Last Call," right here. Good to know that at least one of my self-destructive personal habits can be put to use.

Also, here's a little something until the next official Brasserie update shows up: An evil, Satanic, occultist, trippy freakout rock and roll partyganza!

19th one 4 da n3rdz!

Let's just say I have a broad definition of "the next couple of days," eh? Anyway, this show is special because it contains a spot of nerdcore rap, entirely at the behest of my friend Ellen. Yep. All her fault. And to be fair, MC Chris and MC Hawking are pretty funny.

Anyway, here's the 'cast.

And, of course, the playlist:

18th one!

See? I told you there was one coming soon. Good thing I didn't define "soon," or else I might be taken to task for neglecting my duties as host of this fine, fine podcast.

If you're into stoner/sludge/dirtweed metal, you can't go wrong with Weedeater's newest, called God Luck and Good Speed. It's amazing, and if you don't like it then by law I'm allowed to hunt you for sport.

Okay, I'm all settled into the new place and things are calm at the moment, so I can resume throwing this thing out into the Internet and seeing what/who it hits. Not much else to report, although I am looking forward to mass quantities of turkey and stuffing tomorrow. Hope everyone else has a lovely Thanksgiving, too.

Also, there's this band called Witchcraft. Do explore.

16th one! FINALLY

Yeah yeah, I know. Late again. Hush up, I'm trying to find a new place to live. These things take time. My dog ate it.

Anyway, people in the Baltimore area should come see Antigone at the Baltimore Shakespeare Festival. There's two weekends of it left - Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm, Sundays at 5. Ch-check it out at www.baltimoreshakespeare.org. I'm doing sound.

Also, Death Side is an awesome band. Too bad they broke up and never released any albums here.

14th one...?

See? Told you it would only be a few days. Never doubt me.

Okay fine, so it was significantly longer than a few days. I throw myself upon your mercies. Thankfully, the show is KICKASS this week to make up for it.

Back on the horse we go, with another exciting addition of the Brasserie. And as of last Tuesday (the 4th), I'm 24. Hooray!

Here's the 'cast, and you'd be smart to seek out Double Negative's newest album and buy it immediately. They're kind of a cross between pre-metal CoC and Reagan Youth. That should float anyone's boat, really.

Lay-deez Night!

Well, shit. All I had to do was replace my power cable and the damned computer runs like the first day I turned it on. So with that in mind, here's a special edition of the Brasserie that's all female singers, all the time! Yes, it's Ladies' Night here on the show, and there's even a snazzy new intro to mark the occasion.

Here it is!

And here's what I played on it:

12th one!

Ha! It's Sunday and the new podcast is going up! Take THAT, Murphy's law! And speaking of weird things I don't understand, I saw a piece of Otakon yesterday when I met some friends in downtown Baltimore. The locals, it should be noted, do NOT get anime fandom at all, and one of them was heard to remark that "this is some fucked up white people shit." And that person was a Right Thinking American on the subject, if you ask me.

Artscape was this weekend too, so the city was pretty packed - there was even a giant pink Ferris wheel outside the Myerhoff Symphony Hall. Don't see that every day.

Anyway, here's the 'cast.

Playlist:
No Fraud - Failure
Niblick Henbane - Grin And Bear It
the Aftershocks - Alley Cat King
External Menace - We Wanna Know
Dead Kings - Do the Hack

Small Town Pimps - Zombie Boy
Typhus - Hong Kong Girl
"Demons" - You Don't Want My Name

RSS Feed

yet another update!

I'll try to get the 12th podcast up tonight or tomorrow, but there's a good chance it won't happen since I'm going on vacation next week and need to prepare/pack accordingly. So you may have to wait until after July 8th for the next edition of the ol' Brasserie.

In the meantime, the Eat are now officially reissued by Alternative Tentacles. Buy it, you scurvy dogs!

eleventh one!

Well, so much for Thursday. A few computer issues kept this one a little longer than I'd anticipated, but c'est la vie.

Be sure to check out the newest Tiger Army album, Music From Regions Beyond. They're still trying to be Joy Division more than they try to be Tiger Army, but there are a couple of real sizzlers on this album.

Anyway, enough music I can't play here. On with a bunch of music I CAN play here, i.e. this week's 'cast.

Playlist:
the Challengers - Moon, Send My Baby
Nekronotz - Dead
the Trashies - Let It Be Trashed

update!

The 11th Brasserie will be up on Thursday, it looks like. Trying to get a regular sleep schedule going (and that's not going too well, as you might guess from seeing what time this gets posted), and I've been visiting friends and family lately. But it'll be up this week, by Thunder!

In the meantime, check out 7 Inch Punk for some great rarities from yesteryear and today...year? Yeah, that sounds off. Just click the damn link, I'm tired.

tenth one!

My tenth podcast is here. Not much of a milestone, but at least the number of shows matches the number of subscribers now. Of course, next week the former will surpass the latter. Sigh. I relaunched my wrestling blog recently, too, so June is apparently the month where DK sticks to things. Must be all the pollen keeping me indoors.

Got a job interview tomorrow; imagine, I might just have a full-time job by this point next month. I might have to wear pants every day. This is unprecendented.

Anyway, in lieu of further witticisms, here's this week's podcast, fresh out of Audacity.

Playlist:
the Goddamn Gallows - Everybody Dies
Side Burns - Get Away
Stitches - Cars of Today
the Lost Boys - Dreams (Fly Away)

ninth one!

Woo hoo! I kept my promise! The ninth podcast is up and running, and I might just get this weekly update thing going yet.

In the meantime, you should order Jellyroll Rockheads' complete discography immediately. It's the most fun, inventive thrash you'll probably ever hear, and it's cheap. Just don't play it around people prone to migraines, or their heads will explode..

Speaking of, here's this week's 'cast.

And here's the playlist:

eighth one!

FINALLY.

Jesus, was this one a long time in coming, but my schedule cleared up a little today, so I got a chance to put up a new Brasserie. Still not sure what my new address will be, but hopefully that will all get sorted out next week. Of course, I've been saying that for a while now, but hopefully the fates will align in my favor for goddamned once.

Anyway, enough of that crap. Here's the podcast.

And the playlist:

seventh one!

And the beat goes on, in the words of a band I sadly lack the rights/permission to play (the Screamers, in case you care). Sorry this one's up late, but it's been a busy week, what with preparing to move and all. Still not sure where I'm headed, but the list is narrowing down ever so slowly.

Very stoked about Alternative Tentacles reissuing the Eat, which I found out about after I decided to include them on the show. It's cool that AT is putting out some of these "Killed By Death" bands that would be lost to time otherwise, and a worthwhile endeavor as long as they don't overdo it. But given Jello Biafra's perpetual disdain for nostalgia, I don't think that'll happen.

Anydangways, here's this week's cast.

And the playlist:
Me First and the Gimmie Gimmies - Ghost Riders In the Sky
the Legendary Two Man Trio - Platinum High
Cowboy Killers - Wake Up
the Beat Machine - TV War

Victim - Hang On To Yourself
Gorilla - Too Much for Your Heart
Love Machine - David Comes to Life
Swingin' Utters - Next In Line
Hillbilly Moon Explosion - Fish Outta Water

sixth one!

Man, am I glad I discovered vocal beds. They make the vocal portions of the show much easier to listen to, and finding stuff to play in the background is kinda fun. Gives me a chance to use stuff I otherwise wouldn't have a spot for.

Do you guys read Questionable Content? You should.

Here's this week's 'cast.

And here's the corresponding playlist:
