Suisse Guerrilla Grrls Kleenex/LiLiPUT & Kiwi Punks the Clean Clean House on this Week's Bsides Wee Hour Classics, CKUT 90.3 FM


Did you know that Hermoddities' favorite activities include drinking Diet Hüsker Dü...and that the bulge around their necks is due to the excessive stuffing of Kleenex in their Lederhosen. Certain groups in Hermoddite society can be very sectarian; a popular sect known as World, Unite, Lucifer, Youth Foundation administers Draconian sanctions for such 'misbehaviors' as getting Fs in Math and escaping from the M.ental Ward to form a Pop Group.

Greetings friends. The above prose was a blatant exercise in hat-tipping to this week's featured artists in oh-so-clever riddles and rhymes.

Elsewhere: June was a month of book releases! Temple Bates of Pony da Look fame launched a fantastical book of comics and paintings (Check out Temple's work here) and Bob Mould published a bio on his musical odysseys in collaboration with Michael Azerrad. Woo!

Lederhosen Lucil makes an appearance at Ms. Bates' book launch and almost plays a song from her alter ego Krista Muir's new album (See "Start Again" for a good time, wink, wink) More on Krista's new album Between Atoms here.

In other news, Flying Nun Records is awesome. Please see F in Math and the Clean for proof.

I'm excited, not that I'm not generally always excited about music.

It's that Summer Feeling…

Happy Summer Folks!
