Silent Barn Noise Show

Totally overbooked noise show at The Silent Barn also feat. Banzai (Jonathon from Fiasco’s other band), his buddies Snuffalupagus, and cute kids on tour, Tyger Beat.

This is a merged affair, so I’m not sure the price, but I’m sure it’s cheap… make sure to come out early to catch Jonathon from Fiasco’s other band Banzai and some awesome kids from Florida :)

[ BIRDS OF MAYA ]
“This band sounds like a gg allin demo played through a megaphone”

[ HUMAN ADULT BAND ]
“Human Adult Band has been a creative vehicle for Trevor Pennsylvania since October 2003 and has featured a revolving door of members from experimental, rock and noise acts, Buckets and Batteries, Gorgot and Magnet City Kids.”

[ WET CEMENT ]
We’ll just have to find out.

[ PANOPTICON EYELIDS ]
“Panopticon Eyelids was born in 2002, just before the city of Montreal was taken over by the Ethiopium Biker Rock gang, to explore Internal Panoramic Visions of organized chaos. The beginnings were informed by No Wave primitivism, free improvisation and fucked up psychedelia. In order to survive, the band learned how to make their own Aluminum Foil Deflector Beanie.”

[ SLASHER RISK ]
“Slasher Risk are occupying an interesting space in the guitar-duosphere”

[ TELECULT POWERS ]
Technoccultism.

[ FAMILY OF LOVE ]
Keep it in the family.

[ TYGER BEAT]
“So basically songs are written and Played by a booga and a puke-4-uz. Basically.”

[ BANZAI ]
“Banzai is a Brooklyn quartet formed in 2004. They play a fun and exciting variety of eclectic music, with influences such as (but not limited to) jazz, hip-hop, country, film music, electronic, funk, classical and pop, in addition to the myriad of styles heard in the underbelly of modern rock music. Banzai melds creativity with accessibility, while taking pride in their noted lack of stylistic definition. Readily switching genres mid-song may seem challenging to the ear, but Banzai establishes a logical flow that has made them a musical force to be reckoned with. They will be releasing a full-length follow-up to 2007’s “Please Enjoy” EP in September.”

[ SNUFFLEUPAGUS ]
Snuffleupagus is a 3-piece instrumental band from Brooklyn.

We dream of un-confiscated forties, shit-cheap liquor off a plywood bar, smoking inside, bands in the backyard, in the basement, in the bathtub. Out of necessity, we do shows at venues that are pretty lenient by New York standards, but in a perfect world every show would happen at home (in this city of eternal roommates). To get to the nitty-gritty, if you have a space, and think music forcefully shoved inside might work for us both, drop us an email. We can use all shapes and sizes, from pretty little alleyways or back porches for an acoustic kind of good time, or an industrial-looking basement for around 100 kids to spazz the fuck out in…
