After about half a year of turning into a couch potato, the month of March provided enough artistic fire power to transform (((unartig)))'s rusty bones into a 'forever 21' Duracell bunny again. If you like all things dark, moody, heavy and melancholy, then the below journey through Brooklyn's underground sphere won't disappoint you.
Yosh of Bloody Panda fame live at Saint Vitus in Brooklyn on March 15, 2012.
Let's break our usual pattern of directing your attention towards things from the past for a second. There will be an amazing show of fragile beauty and darkness at Saint Vitus in Greenpoint, Brooklyn tonight, Thursday March 15. Picastro is coming down from Canada exclusively for a one off show and will be flanked by Sondra Sun-Odeon and Yosh/Bloody Panda. For more details please check out the FBinvite.
It has been 13 long years since (((unartig))) was last involved in promoting a show. But the hiatus is history. Or to quote ATDI: This station is now operational. Below are video edits of our co-production with BBG/BrooklynVegan at Saint Vitus on January 14.
Chicago's Bloodiest are hands down the best thing I have seen all year. A brutally full sound, dry and emotional. Everything that was once interesting about Nick Cave, Bruce Lamont and company take to a whole new level of excellence. Just when I was starting to feel a void of new interesting music...
Baton Rouge doomsters Thou brought the house down at Abc No Rio on October 08. They closed their set with a cover of the Beastie Boys' classic "Sabotage". Video of that and more is below.
More live videos from The Body and Mutilation Rites beneath the fold...
Now here's something largely entertaining. Shortly before Cryptic Slaughter put out their first release back in 1986, they played in someone's backyard in Los Angeles. The footage is nothing short of hilarious. Classic crossover/thrash. Love it!
Wolves in the Throne Room celebrated their record release for "Celestial Linage" at the Bell House in Brooklyn on September 12. Below is a 30min video edit of both the beginning and end of the show
NOLA doom outfit Thou also played the Bell House in Brooklyn on September 12, as did New York City's own Krallice. Videos are below.
On September 10 Monster Island hosted one last huge block party at there Williamsburg location before it shuts down for good and moves to Bushwick. Amongst the artists gracing the outdoor and indoor stages that night was Cult of Youth. A video of their set's last three songs is posted below.
On the night before hurricane Irene hit the East Coast, the apocalypse was celebrated on a roof top in Bushwick. Among the performing artists was Vuk from Finland.
Krallice played the closing night of the free summer shows at House of Vans in Greenpoint on August 24. Below is a video edit of the song "Telluric Rings" off of their latest full length "Diotima".
Chelsea Wolfe celebrated her New York City live debut at St.Vitus Bar in Greenpoint on August 17. Much respect to Fred Pessaro and Todd Pendu for having put on this outstanding show.
The July recap includes a little piece on a group art show that happened at St.Vitus Bar in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. There'll be a second installation of this art show on September 25, again at St.Vitus Bar. Go there, buy art!
It's a slow 'news week' again, so I went back to the archive and dug up some super rare Skinny Puppy footage from the 1980's. This material was originally scheduled to be released by their label. Only, it never happened. Both shows were recorded in Washington DC in 1986 and 1988. Enjoy.
The last month was a bit slow for (((unartig))). While the mind still wants to push it further and further, the body can't always cope. EndeTymes Festival for example I missed completely. Doing three shows a day used to be like taking a walk in the park. Not anymore. Gettin' old...
