"My Dad's a Fucking Alcoholic. Must Be Me, Or His Irritating Job, My Dad Drinks Everynight"

That's this little video on an amazing new band that I've talked about before named The Nextdoor Neighbors from Washington. I hope they win there competition, I sure likes 'em. I really really wish they reposted the song that they used to have that had the lyric: Sometimes I get drunk and I scream and I scream and you breathe, so I breathe" because it was awesomeomeomeome.

Anywaize, check this little tidbit out:

"In 1981, Wax Trax Records co-owner Duane Davis formed the in-store label called Local Anesthetic and released the debut single by Denver band Gluons featuring Allen Ginsberg on vocals. Local Anesthetic went on as the only continuous independent label in Colorado, staunchly documenting the underground music scene of the early 80s. Now, Smooch Records’ The Local Anesthetic compiles all of the 7-inch singles, along with a few other gems. Although the singles all fall under the punk umbrella, they're a diverse collection of hardcore, new wave, artsy fartsy, goth, and experimental recordings from 1977-83. The drug-damaged punk played through broken amps of Frantix’s “My Dad's a Fucking Alcoholic” caught some national attention prompting Peter Buck of REM and Thurston Moore to learn every detail of its creation."
