About this Event
Wild PowwersWILD POWWERS are 3 Seattle kids who “specialize in the sort of carefree grunge riff-rock that gets better the dirtier it gets. Each layer of meticulously gnarly distortion, each off-kilter lyric, drenched in garage-echo reverb, is pure Pacific Northwest filth” - KEXP.
Slang
Slang is one of many Portland bands featuring drum legend Janet Weiss (formerly of Sleater-Kinney and wild Flag and the Jicks) behind the kit. This particular configuration also includes Modern Kin’s Drew Grow, former Thermals member Kathy Foster, and Viva Voce’s Anita Lee Elliot. We heard their single “Wilder” over the winter, and today they’re sharing the title track from their upcoming album Cockroach In A Ghost Town — an album that, by the way, features guest appearances from current and former Weiss bandmates such as Sam Coomes (Quasi), Stephen Malkmus (Pavement, Jicks), and Mary Timony (Helium, Ex Hex, Wild Flag). This one’s built around Grow’s thought-provoking refrain, “I have dreams about the ending/ I don’t dream about the end.”
SAVAKSavak who feature members of Obits / Edsel and Holy F*ck release their firth album ‘Human Error / Human Delight’ this month with their roots set in the Washington DC post-hardcore scene and post punk sounds and styles.
