Moe Grizzly are so fucking good.
I mean, they're better live, but whatever, isn't that always the case? Here's a great track found on last year's Clones And Clones: Hobart + Melbourne compilation. It's called 'Eye Sore'. It was probably meant for some completed-but-never-released album that's still sitting around in some Hobart house.
Edit: "Eyesore was recorded exclusively for the C&C comp - no other
material exists from this session. The other, older,
lying-around-a-house session is being worked on constantly and will see a
release well before the end of 2011." More details in comment section below.
If you haven't heard Moe Grizzly before, think a fuzzier, less intelligible Drones. But really, just listen to the song already:

Being myblackson's 'final' show - which was one of their best ever, let the record be known - it feels fitting to feature something from them here. You can already listen to most of their back catalogue on Bandcamp (and download the majority of that for free), but here's a song from the limited single they released at their final gig on 22 July 2011. It's titled 'Jam', which is the same name as one of their old songs, but whatever. Punk.
They'll be back, just you watch 'em. And they'll play Pop Song, too.
In the meantime, while we all pretend they're dead forever - R.I.P. myblackson. You were good to us. Really, really good. To my favourite Tasmanian punk band: thank you.

Eyesore was recorded exclusively for the C&C comp - no other material exists from this session. The other, older, lying-around-a-house session is being worked on constantly and will see a release well before the end of 2011. The material from this session is pretty much studio versions of the material from Live In A Room In Someone's House that hadn't already appeared on Fingering Dixie, plus newer material up to the point of 'Form a Form' (an alternative mix of this track from this session will appear on Community II) and 'Hammered Clean'. There is another album of material written since which will be recorded this year for release in 2012, this will include 'Eyesore', 'Benedictine', 'Whiskey and Water', and 'I Don't Relate'. None of that would very much to anyone at this point, but in the future this kind of information is gold for nerds.
ReplyDeleteI am a nerd so that is VERY appreciated. Thanks Grizz.
ReplyDeleteI'll update it a little.
