Stefan Neville, Alie McPherson, Satsuma Motors - Opening nightComics reviewAdrian Kinnard over at his excellent
From Earths End blog has done a review of new New Zealand comics which includes Tim Danko's alluring little screen printed comic Vigl in the Sup-Ho series and Tim Molloy's latest surreal masterpiece Saturn Returns. Read it here:
Bill Orcutt w/ Brian & Maryrose Crook at The High Seas
Bill Orcutt emerged as one of the most influential guitar players of the 1990s, alongside drummer Adris Hoyos in the seminal Miami-based free rock band, Harry Pussy, their half-decade existence throwing up a boutique of caustic masterpieces alongside equally luminary cohorts on labels including Chocolate Monk (Richard Youngs, Incapacitants, Bruce Russell) and Siltbreeze (Charalambides, Guided By Voices, The Shadow Ring), but their volatile, calamitous sound has remained their matchless own.
Harry Pussy’s sonic wit, spat forth in vignette-like rashes such as ‘Please Don’t Come Back From The Moon’, ‘Nazi USA’ and ‘I Don't Care About Sleep Anymore’ spoke of a generational disenchantment that heavily influenced the likes of later acolytes, Hair Police, Pukers, Sightings, The Hospitals and the younger alumni on Philadelphia’s fabled Siltbreeze label. In one critic’s words, Harry Pussy ‘filtered the Circle Jerks' brutal attack through Sonic Youth and Lydia Lunch and condensed it into a narrow, high-pitched assault’, and in another’s, ‘pretty much established a whole new blueprint for post-hardcore avant rock destruction.’

Dog barks at something outside the house and it sets off the dog
down the road which sets off the dog on the next street. A dog passing on the back of a ute hears the last one and is still barking at the edge of town where the dog at the radio station replies and is transmitted to a boat in Tonga setting off their dog. A dog surfing past hears that and carries on to South America barking her head off the whole way. This goes on all the way round the world. Captured here by screenprints on atlas pages.
A new book "Around the world in 80 dogs" illustrating this will also be available.

Top Satsuma designers combine love of joyful childs plastic figure and the Hard Men of Rugby Leago tribute. Thrill to multiple plaster knock-off of original joyful childs plastic figure... Shiver at thought of Hard Man vice-like crushing grip. Lawsuit impossible and shameful. Bright colours to fascinate!
Witness to plaster reliefs featuring example Les Boyd, Kurt Sorensen, Jim Mills, and many other Hard Men of Rugby Leago. Presented by Satsuma Motors.
