JAMBINAI – TIME OF EXTINCTION (소멸의 시간)
December 6, 2016
To mark the re-release of their debut album, Différance, Jambinai has unleashed the video for track “Time of Extinction.” Whew… I mean, honestly there are no words. The piecemeal description of this experience is at its core level the song is as riotous as its name suggests. There is a moment of birth, the slow crawl of … More JAMBINAI – TIME OF EXTINCTION (소멸의 시간)
[Review] Dumbfoundead – We Might Die
November 30, 2016
Writing my first review about Dumbfoundead was a daunting task. I was concerned I wouldn’t be able to distance myself from what I know of him from his King of the Dot battles. Worried anything I’d write would be chock-full of superlatives and contradictions—being both a proud and frustrated fan. But what it always comes … More [Review] Dumbfoundead – We Might Die
Zandari Festa Special: Interview With Ooberfuse
November 30, 2016
**Editors’ note: This piece was written by Sohn Jeong-Eun, a guest writer we met while in Seoul for Zandari Festa. She’s been kind enough to share her interview with the fabulous Ooberfuse with us.

Today we start with a generic introduction, because honestly my mind is too full of… stuff to even begin to write something creative.

2016 Dallas Korean Festival – No Brain
November 20, 2016
There have been very few defining moments in my life, moments that take what I knew about the world, about music, sound, energy, and irrevocably shift their meaning. My entire worldview is morphed and I’m given a new outlook on how things are meant to be. That seems like a lot of lofty purple-hued language, but … More 2016 Dallas Korean Festival – No Brain

Zandari Festa: Day 3
November 15, 2016
[10-3-16] Zandari Festa Day 3 was an insane whirlwind of bands for me. I somehow managed to catch 12 bands. This wasn’t the ideal way to experience some of these bands, but I took an approach to this festival with the idea that some of these bands might never make it to the States for … More Zandari Festa: Day 3
Zandari Festa: Biuret
November 15, 2016
Sometimes a band needs their own review, and if ever there was one, Biuret is it. Technically, this took place on Day 2 of Zandari, but I had more to say about this performance, so they get their own post. I’ve mentioned before, that I’ve been a fan for Biuret for about 10 years now, … More Zandari Festa: Biuret
Zandari Festa: Day 2
November 15, 2016
[10-2-16] Thankfully, on day 2 of Zandari Festa, I managed to shake off my illness and exhaustion of the previous day and was able to jump straight into the first show of the night with a fresh mind. First act of the night was Dead Buttons over at Yes24 MUV Hall again. Love this venue, … More Zandari Festa: Day 2
