Holy Shit! If there were ever a year to go, it would seem this would be the year. Now I just have to figure out how to get from CA to NY.
|
Looks like SYR 9 or 10 right there...
|
Holy. Fucking. Shit.
I CANNOT wait for this. |
Who the fuck are all those weirdos?
|
good lineup as always. coulda used a more interesting headliner than merzbow though.
|
looks like the show is diversifying though, i mean, bardo pond? thrones? wouldnt have expected that.

it said no particular order tho... I guess Sonic Youth and Merzbow just randomly appeared at the top of the list :rolleyes: |

Various members of Sonic Youth have made appearances at the fest throughout the years. Why did you decide to invite the band proper to perform this year? Well I had actually invited them before to perform as Sonic Youth, but it did not work out. (Same with Bardo Pond: I invited them many years ago but the schedule did not work for them). I've been friends with them for a while and I've always been a fan of the band, so why not? I am really looking forward to see what they do for No Fun. I hear there might be guest(s) involved. |
WOW
|
great line up. i'll be going to this. i was going to go to this years, but i needed to save money and i was moving here in a month at that time anyway. now the fest is only ten blocks from where i live, so that's an extra special bonus there.
|
Moshe. is THIS one???
|
you know it would have been even better if they held it at the Yard/Market Hotel. But yeah should be awesome.

my friend Toral...the inspired portuguese noise/experimental maker ( check is last work - Space)...i'm so excited...i wanna cry!!! and the rest of the line-up it's amazing. Thanks Moshe. |
Quote:
not many harsh noisers but a good lineup overall. three of my very favorite bands are playing, no less; and some awesome people as well. |
PEDESTRIAN DEPOSIT back in action as a duo.
|
I heard a rumor that Bastard Noise is playing a Man Is The Bastard style set?
BEYOND stoked to see Con-Dom and Grey Wolves, saw Yellow Tears earlier this year and they were amazing. Glad to see Pulse Emitter getting some recognition! Known that guy for a little bit... AMAZING synth work |

Wow, Pulse Emitter gets to open for Sonic Youth and Bardo Pond. He deserves it, nice guy with really excellent music. I keep trying to get him to play my radio show, but it's kind of early in the day for him.
|
A+. This is a really good news! Great Moshe!
Hope there'll be a CD or LP of this. I'm interested in Noveller also. |
yay for emeralds! Bardo Pond will rock my socks off yet again. it'll be the third time seeing them. also looking forward to the c. spencer yeh set with rafael toral and Trevor Tremane who I"ve never heard of. I'm actually a No Fun virgin, but I've always wanted to go just never worked out. I've been to terrastock fest tho which is where I fell in love Bardo Pond. Luckily my friend gets out of probation in time for him to come with me.
|
wow the first night doesn't look too shabby either
Chris and Axotol are going to rule for sure :) |
Quote:
Honestly, all three nights look pretty stellar. Thrones into Bastard Noise would be incredible, Con-dom into Skullflower into Merzbow is so remarkable my ears ring at the thought. Wish I was rich, I'd be there. |
Saw Noveller last week at IPR, really really good you should add her she is now in Parts and Labor (saw them last month at the Knit and they are doing a European tour, you should see them).
Also heads up- Sick Llama is in NYC this coming friday, should be a sick show. |
nice i dig the new parts and labor album receivers
|
im very psyched for this, im already planning plane tickets for it.
|
ill prolly have my head explode with emeralds black pus con-dom skullflower in a row, i wont even make it for merzbow, who better as fuck not do a laptop show.
tickets go on januaru 12th right? |
It says Feb. 15th on the official site.
I'm probably going to get tickets for Saturday and Sunday. Friday doesn't look all too appealing to me. |
ill prolly go late the last day. axolotl have always struck me as just a very mediocre band who sometimes collaborates with very awesome bands that hes friends with, his records seem so bland to me. dont know much about raglani or noveller either, i possibly would like them but fuck it. gotta see what corsano does for his live show though. giffoni solo has never done much for me (monotract did though, fuckin awesome band). grey wolves i have some records by and like, be cool to see them live. i am very curious to see what joe preston does. itd be awesome if he did something like some really skronky doom drone, instead of his usual doom metal thing. and im sure bastard noise will be triumphant.
this is the no fun lineup im prolly most psyched on so far. |
sounds cool
|
i'll probably go when I/C/O/C or monosodic get invited.
