Here’s the New ANTEMASQUE Video for “In The Lurch”

by | Oct 2, 2014

Antemasque, the new project of former The Mars Volta/At The Drive-In members Omar Rodriguez-Lopez and Cedric Bixler-Zavala, are kicking off their fall tour tonight. The trek consists of two separate legs, in Europe and in North America, and they’ll be bringing along Le Butcherettes.

We’re still waiting on the official release of the band’s self-titled debut album. Earlier this year the record was put on Bandcamp via Rodríguez-Lopez’s label Nadie Sound, but was soon after removed. Word on the street is that an October release is expected.

Oh… and Flea isn’t in the band, for those of you still wondering. Handling bass duties for the group will be Marfred Rodriquez-Lopez, Omar’s brother who you know from Zechs Marquise.

Here’s the band’s new live video for “In The Lurch.”

The Acacia Strain Interview on Ryan’s Rock Show

I have a pet peeve with the term “music journalist”. I guess technically what I do for Ryan’s Rock Show is a form of journalism, but sadly my image of a music journalist is no longer Lester Bangs. To me, the term “music journalist” has...

Deafheaven Interview: George Clarke & Kerry McCoy on their Success & The World of Blogging

It’s hard to imagine that Deafheaven’s success all spawned off the release of their 2010 demo. Even frontman George Clarke and guitarist Kerry McCoy are among the disbelievers, especially since they recorded the four-track effort out of boredom. Since...
