so i'm assuming that's some oooooold stuff, right?

1974 i think. it's weird folk stuff, nowhere near as interesting to me as microminiature but still quite good.
seems to be in normal tunings (my complaint of the other album).
buh? what's wrong with different tunings?

oh, i musta written it on the other yonkers thread. i wasn't really feeling the other album because i felt like it sounded like sonic youth :-/

"grimwood" is a whole 'nother beast but it's hitting the spot. thanks jaxon!

It's the "Grimwood Re-Release Party," sorry to be so last-second about it...

I'd never heard that first song in there either -- gotta track down that cd.

My old Skin Graft band opened for Hair Police, Michael Yonkers, and Dream Aktion Unit (Thurston Moore, Jim O'Rourke, etc) about five years back. Great show. Yonkers was the least of it though.

grimwood is perfect on a rainy, kinda cold, dreary day like today.

I've heard good things about the record w/ The Mumbles.

It's pre-Microminiature Love, from what I understand.
― Trip Maker, Wednesday, 28 October 2009 18:19 (fourteen years ago) link
yep real early stuff
