BIRDS OF SQUALOR, DESCARTES A KANT (Mexico City(, CAZADORES, HOLY HAND GRENADES, & THE STARS GO OUT! DESCARTES A KANT (from Mexico City) ”The Mexico City quartet are equal parts Punk, Metal, Pop, Shoegaze and Cabaret.Trying to describe their music is to do it a disservice. It’s loud, racy, incredibly imaginative, sophisticated, funny and wild; it’s as if the Yeah Yeah Yeahs fronted Albert Ayler with Frank Zappa conducting”. – Wall Street Journal Doors 7pm, show 7:30pm.

LOVECRIMES
LOVECRIMES + Special Guests MODERN ANGST, and BEN DIESELDoors 7:00pm, show 7:45pm. THIS IS AN ALL AGES SHOW Slanging rock n’ roll out of Orange County, Lovecrimes mine the rich traditions of roots music and Americana with deep respect for the Delta Blues and a taste of punk-rock swagger. Rock n’ roll at its core and versatile enough to summon everything from rockabilly to late ‘70s groove, the songs by singer/songwriter Julian James are confessional, intimate, and unapologetically honest. Julian James Ness fell in love with music hearing Lucinda Williams at his mom’s house and pressing buttons on his dad’s vintage jukebox, pulling up country classics by the likes of Buck Owens and Johnny Cash. He took saxophone lessons from Jason Freese, a multi-instrumentalist session player whose resumé boasts Green Day, Jewel, and Goo Goo Dolls. Julian experimented with bass and drums until, at age 10, he got his first guitar from his dad, who showed him his first few chords. Julian’s dad is the iconic leader of the trailblazing Social Distortion. “From the time I was four or five years old, people told me I had to carry the torch,” the younger Ness explains. “There’s been this lifelong pressure on me. I avoided it out of fear and insecurity, not feeling like I was good enough.” A week after his 18th birthday, Julian started a year-long jail sentence, the result of teenage years spent battling alcohol and drug addiction. While a resident at a post-prison treatment center, he was allowed a fateful outing to see his father play a show, where they performed “Prison Bound” together. “It was a high that no other drug could give me,” Julian remembers of those few minutes onstage. “It filled me with purpose. I told myself in the past that drugs and alcohol were contributing to my creativity, but they weren’t. I was going to the pawn shop and pawning my guitars. I wasn’t doing anything proactive. That show was a monumental moment in my life. I knew I wanted to do this.” Not long after his release from rehab, Julian joined The Dead Relatives. After that, he played with Jade Jackson, a country singer signed to ANTI-. LOVECRIMES also features Trevor Lucca, a guitarist with punk legends D.I. since 2018, and Dry Sockets, based on a recommendation from producer Davey Worsop (Matt Skiba, Dave Hause, Throwdown). “Since he played lead guitar for D.I., I knew he could play punk. Then I scrolled through his Instagram feed and saw him playing some Lucinda Williams and Justin Townes Earle. And I thought, ‘This is perfect.’” Lovecrimes made their first few live appearances at The Pike Bar in Long Beach, Hotel Café in Los Angeles, and The Wayfarer in Costa Mesa. In December 2022, the band opened for Social Distortion on a few of their year-end dates at the House Of Blues in Anaheim, California. Shortly after launching the band, Julian opened a substance abuse and mental health program called The California Treatment Collective, offering the care and resources needed by folks in crisis. “It’s amazing to watch him,” Mike Ness told The Orange County Register. “He wanted to do his own thing. He was coming to me with some really, really good songs, and there were a couple that, in my opinion, were as good as anything I’ve ever written, so that’s how we bond now… I saw him play guitar in a band at the Tiki Bar in Costa Mesa, and I just couldn’t deny that he had presence up there.”
LEFTÖVER CRACK
LEFTÖVER CRACK with special guests THE HOTRAILS, + COMRAD. Doors 7pm, show starts 8pm. Leftöver Crack is an American punk rock band formed in 1998 following the breakup of its predecessor Choking Victim, sharing band members Stza & Alec Baillie until Alec’s tragic death during the COVID 19 pandemic & crisis in November of 2021. The band is currently releasing new & previously unreleased music & will be reissuing all of their previous albums, with the exception of their debut LP “Medicore Generica” (which remains on Hellcat/Epitaph Records for the time being). Manufactured & distributed by MVD in North America, Leftöver Crack’s own Recidivist Bible Camp record label has just recently released its first song & video for the track “Shooticide” from the upcoming Leftöver Crack EP: “Abandon the Precincts” to be released “this winter” on RBC records & psalms. (Song: https://leftover-crack.bandcamp.com/track/shootacide Video: https://youtu.be/_ri8Gvx9ypU) Here’s a link to “the meaning” of the song “Shooticide” https://www.tumblr.com/crackdaddycaine The EP also features two songs recorded during the “Constructs of the State” LP sessions: “The Dead” co-written by Stu Daly of Dublin, Ireland’s legendary “Chewing on Tinfoil” aka “Chewy” & Stza, it features vocals by the late Erik Peterson of Philadelphia’s beloved Mischief Brew & a song called “Manger Danger” co-written by Stza with the Huntington Beach based team of Brad Logan & Donny Morris, who also played together in the hard-core band “Rats in the Wall”. Leftöver Crack’s current touring line-up consists of Scott Sturgeon aka Stza Crack (vocals, guitar, synth), Tibbie X (vocals, synth), Marc Cody (bass, vocals) Talon Demeneo (guitar, vocals), Jon Yi (guitar, vocals) & Ethan Nickles (drums). Leftöver Crack has both defied genre pigeon-holing while creating the “Crack Rock Steady” musical genre (along with LöC predecessors Choking Victim & No Commercial Value) which mixes anarcho-punk with ska, hardcore, garage, crust-punk & the gloriously unholy metal trifecta of thrash, doom & death. All of this & many other styles are combined with grating crust-punk vocals delivered with a snotty snarling attitude by a multitude of genders & an endless list of vocal & musical inspirations including vastly contrasting musics from top 40 pop from the last 50 Years, to 90’s hip hop, early 80’s goth, late 80’s “alternative”, indie rock & most styles in between & outside of every box. The lyrical content is mostly political & of a radical leftist nature, opposing religion, capitalism, authority & prejudice. Members of Leftöver Crack’s band & crew reside at C-Squat near Tompkins square park in the Lower East Side of New York City. Band members have had a well-known history of back-and-forth conflict with the NYPD which precedes the band’s formation. The name “Leftöver Crack” is explained by Stza as being “an oxymoron”, based on the idea that crack cocaine addicts are known for vigorous use, and are unlikely to have any “leftover”(s).
