Cumstain Boston
Flyer by Christine Moore
Now, you know we love Cumstain. It’s been a dream of mine for four years now to see the band in the flesh in a packed basement filled with sweaty, drunken hellions. That’s what we have on our plate in front of us Boston. This Sunday at the chillest spot, you will find one Cumstain, Free Pizza, White Pages, and rampant tities sucker, Gangbang Gordon, who will be releasing his debut album via BUFU Records.

Bodies of Waters Shows, BUFU Records, and yours truly KLYAM are throwing down this fiesta tomorrow night on Sunday August 24th. Check it out or else! https://www.facebook.com/events/738454566218338/

Big Mess New Album and Tour (8/29-10/2)

Leave a comment

Big Mess Album‘
Hey all, Big Mess, a local favorite of ours for a few years now, is heading out on a big ass tour and you’d be a damn fool not to attend. Better yet, pick up their debut full-length LP You Are My Sunshine (via Midnight Werewolf Records) on September 16th. Ahh you may think sunshine is too lighthearted for Big Mess, but damn that sunshine song always disturbed me as a child. It still gives me the creeps. Why would they take your sunshine away? I don’t get it. So, it fits with Big Mess is what I’m saying.

Sneak peek of new album here on their bandcamp: http://bigmessma.bandcamp.com/album/you-are-my-sunshine-2

Music Video: Ravi Shavi – “Some Devils”

Leave a comment


I’m digging this new song from Providence, RI’s Ravi Shavi, a big KLYAM fave. This is a bit slower than their usual material and that’s cool with me. It works. I’m curious what the rest of this new album Courage will sound like.

By the way, these dudes are heading out on tour soon with fellow Providence kings Atlantic Thrills. Check out the tour dates here: https://www.facebook.com/events/746611655409296/
