Julian Keith Levene tribute
was a founding member of the Clash and Public Image Ltd his punk and post punk guitar sounds have been described as "both melodic and discordant, sonorous and violent". In 1976, he helped persuade Joe Strummer to leave the pub rock band the 101ers and join the Clash. Although he left the band before their first studio recordings, he co-wrote "What's My Name", which appeared on their first album. After the Sex Pistols disbanded, Levene and their lead singer John Lydon co-founded Public Image Ltd (PiL). He was involved in the writing, performing and producing PiL's first three albums: First Issue, Metal Box and Flowers of Romance. He was described in the BBC's obituary as "one of the most influential guitarists of all time... who helped pioneer an angular post-punk sound that is still regularly cited".

Farang studio 3 session

Farang is Matt's project. Or that is how Leah started explaining the band to me. Matt wrote some songs and started working them out with Ivan. Once they had the basic structure he approached Payson about playing guitar. And then they brought in Leah. 

But how I know three of these folks is through their other bands. I knew Matt through former host Dave Brown who played with him in Capital Death which was a band from Truro that Matt and Payson both played in. More recently Matt (the Endless Blockade) and Payson (Purity Control) sang in bands from here, but Farang sees these guys returning to the instruments that they played in Capital Death. 

I know Ivan from his bands Terminal State and School Jerks and more recently Kremlin. Ivan also co-hosted the show for a few months so I feel like he is part of the EXD family. Ivan e-mailed me about getting Farang to play on the show when Matt came back from New York City at the end of the summer. I had to re-schedule this session at least once but eventually we were able to set this up. 

Ivan described the sound like starting with a Mob 47 riff and working on not repeating any rhythm in a creative inventive post punk way. Ivan continues by explaining that it took a long time for Farang to develop their sound and in part because the member's were getting familiar with each other. They never had any conversations on influences with regards to bands or sounds. 

People have compared Farang to Devo and Dead Kennedys, 

"Ear of the Bull" reminds me of Black Flag's "My War" given the prominent bass structure and the crazy guitar pieces. There is a lot of early Minutemen in there which has more to do with the jazz like structure. I wonder if this is an SST mash up but the band denies anything that directed. Bob Mould even creeps in there with some of the speed at which Payson plays. 

But despite all of these I have to say I have never heard of anything like Farang having them defy description.Regardless I couldn't help myself trying to keep pace with the songs in a way that just sucked me in. 

We were able to record songs from the band's past two releases. They were:

1. Constrictor
2. Woggle
3. Ear of the Bull / If you're not now you never were
4. If you're not now you never were
5. Jampacking
6. Gumboots / Maximum Taxiderm / Let's Kill
7. Psychic Bruise

Then I bugged the band to do some IDs

8. Psychic Bruise EXD ID
9. Farang on CIUT ID

We also spoke with the band afterwards in the hallway. The production studio was broken so Ian set up some mics.

This session was recorded and produced by Ian Wilkinson. The video was filmed by Aldo and Candy.  Candy did the editing on this clip.

Flyer - Saturday July 3, 2010


This show was moved from Parts and Labour to the Polish Combatants Hall. Loads of people I talked to on the night were excited about the prospects of drinking Polish beer. And there was some old army uniforms as a display that made the event a little more bizarre. It didn't hurt that the last time I had been here was for an Estonia confirmation ceremony some 29 years ago. So the whole thing started off with a bizarre twist.

Bastard Noise were the final band of the evening. The Man is the Bastard logo was hung on an old bass drum skin above the drum kit like a entrance medallion. There was a lot of set up that went in to their set. They had a guirney, which I was hoping was going to get worked into the performance. No such like. Eric Wood and Sean Connell started in to what seemed like an improvised power violence jam. Then the noise effects which sounded a lot like UFO noises were added to the mix. It was brutality. I hadn't seen Eric Wood in over 25 years. I put on a Pillsbury Hardcore show back in the day, which was the origins of this band. They've come a long way....


Here is a shot of the band and the crowd.

Matt Carroll joins in on a song in the Bastard Noise set.

The Endless Blockade played their last show. The guitarist Ben has moved to Bermuda and so there was lots of razing him on his new digs. They added a noise mixing guy to their sound. It was fitting but I get the sense that this was nothing new. Matt was surging into the crowd and at one point someone didn't take too kindly almost resulting in a fight. But power violence can't wait for these minor conflicts and Matt had to get back to singing. The set ended in a cacaphony of noise.

Here is Andy Nolan getting into the first song taking a deep breathe. He's got a mean Mike Dean stance.

Ben Edgar and their drummer Eric



And the noise mixmaster for the Endless Blockade set. He brought this guitar like noise maker out at the end of the set like a little solo performance.
The Rita went on before the Endless Blockade set. That was a guy with peddles that I didn't find interest beyond the sound cannon training. Someone passed out during the set.

Abyss played next. This is the first time I got to see them. Pretty powerful in a Swedish crust kind of way. Dave from Rammer sings for them and he is a great frontman. Loads of headbanging and quickwitted banter in between songs. Here are some photos of them.


Disciples of Christ played first and they were from Baltimore. Someone was telling me that they may contain members of Magrudergrind. I didn' t get the camera out for their set but there was upside down crosses on the amps so you know it was on the up and up.
