Joel Frieders
Joel Frieders woke up three salmon streams by merely emitting a low frequency squelch out of his thyroid. We hope he continues with such impressive feats of science, because he for sure needs help in the tattoos of fruits in precarious situations category. Rob Campobasso for Athlete of the Month. If cream of tartar isn't actually creamy, then why the hell am I so meteor showered? Is it any wonder. IS IT ANY WONDAAAA!
Interview
Our Interview with Sims from Doomtree - "The Humble One"
Joel Frieders | January 3, 2012
I’ve had Doomtree in my earholes for years now. They continue to impress me with their furthering of their chosen genre (scat-jazz), whether it be with clothes that actually fit, lyrics you can actually understand, or checking accounts that...

Our Interview with Cecil Otter of Doomtree - Nobody like a cold penis
Joel Frieders | December 8, 2011
Doomtree are an enigma wrapped in a gluten free peacoat. They portray this welcoming and accepting group vibe that is as large as the genre they perform in (lo fi indie power punk), but it's all a fucking sham. They are only out for our...
Album Review
Dirty Art Club - Heavy Starch
Joel Frieders | November 23, 2011
Everything about this fucking album is Goddamn disgusting. Beats are dirty. Samples are filthy. Even the pretty shit is covered in grime. Instrumental hip hop essentially gets out of the shower and jumps directly into a pile of dust and writhes around in it...

Music Ruined My Life - A Perfect Circle, Tool & Maynard James Keenan
Joel Frieders | October 31, 2011
1996: In high school, I was in a band where the bass player was a what I would like to consider a super-fan of the band Tool. We used to sit in his car in front of the house where we rehearsed and listen to Aenema on repeat really fucking...

Milo - I Wish My Brother Rob Was Here
Joel Frieders | October 31, 2011
When people say they're "dropping" a "mixtape" I'm usually leery of giving it anything more than a skim because I always interpreted it as kind of a half-assed attempt at releasing music. It's like, either go all the way and put out an EP or an LP or even a...

Pop Cultures Collide: Wes Restless - Win In The End From the 1985 Movie Teen Wolf
Joel Frieders | October 18, 2011
Teen Wolf was a movie that always made me want to own a milk truck. I mean, I've had my peeps dancin' on my car roofs in the past, but being up so high and being so visible to the community would make le roof dancing all the more impressionable upon...
Album Review
Big Mean Sound Machine - Ouroboros
Joel Frieders | October 18, 2011
I remember my first Budos Band show. I showed up with about 7 friends and after the first three minutes I managed to squeeze my way up front at Darkroom in Chicago by myself, and I stayed there for hours. I remember the dim red lights, the guitar player's...
Interview
Our Interview with Shakey Graves - Little accomplishments built Texas
Joel Frieders | October 6, 2011
Shakey Graves created one of my favorite albums of the year. It's as calming as a massage of the prostate, if that calms you. It's as relaxing as a toot on the ol' poop chut, if that relaxes you. It's as easy on the ears as a tickle of the ol...

Pop Cultures Collide: Gashcat - As The World Falls Down From the Movie Labyrinth
Joel Frieders | September 14, 2011
Gashcat, and this month's submission for Pop Cultures Collide, As the World Falls Down, represents everything we set out to accomplish with the original idea of pop cultures collide. Taking the Aqua Net sheen of ...

And So I Watch You From Afar - Gangs
Joel Frieders | September 6, 2011
Post-rock is one of my vices.
I yearn for air guitar solos and air drum solos while I myself am solo. I play riffs in my head during my daily mundane tasks. I imagine myself a long-haired gentleman and toss the head to and fro and fro and to and neck pain be...
