Show Spotlight: Champagne Diet at The Highball | Tonight (2/25)


Knuckle Rumbler is going to be highballing out of control tonight. Join us for CHAMPAGNE DIET at The Highball with ZEALE, Hot Britches! and Sebastian Nebula! No cover charge y’all- this night is for celebrating.

ZEALE, Austin’s most live MC, will be premiering all new music from his new album as well as a new live show described as ‘electronic’. If you need a track record of artists who have supported Z in the past check with Hollywood Holt, Goodie Mob and Del The Funkee.

A refreshing addition to the scene is new comer Sebastian Nebula. He will be getting your tops off like Janet Jackson at the Super Bowl with his disco and house jams bumping deep into the night.

Rounding the night out is local menace to dance floors all over is Hot Britches! Misprint Magazine said it best “if you’re into jorts, neon, robots from the future, sherbet, late night cinemax circa 1994, ice luges or the crocodile mile, you should probably check out a Hot Britches! show.”

See you tonight after The Roaries!

8201 Interview - The White White Lights


We have been down with The White White Lights since day one. After catching the band at a show at Beauty Bar in front of a modest crowd over a year ago and knowing we had they to have them play having them play our first sponsored show to all the success they have achieved since then. We have always had high hopes for this band and now they are on the eve of releasing their first E.P "Medium Head Boy" on February 27th. In celebration the band will be having their release party the same night at Emo's and we were able to get some questions in with the band about the upcoming release. First things first though, mark that calendar.

Onto the interview.....


So how did this whole thing start? It almost feels like TWWL came out of nowhere.

We did! We simply materialized out of the ether. (Actually, Jonas offered to record a Monster Girl album, and after a few months of playing together and a half-Lomita-half-Monster Girl show at Emo's, it became obvious that we should start something. The rest is glamorous rock and roll history.)

You have established yourselves over the last year with your live performances. What can someone who has seen you live expect from the EP? What songs made the cut?

The six songs on the EP are (in order): Space Invaders, Heresy, It's Cold Here In Japan, Doctor Doctor, Evangeline, and Devil's Son. We have a feeling our audience can expect to hear the same impactive sound we present live with a few extra embellishments here and there. We don't overdub any basics and try to stick to a one-take rule for every track, especially with vocals. It's very honest. What we've got coming out after this EP is even more stripped-down and live. We can't wait to share everything we've got.

Can you please explain what Medium Head Boy means? I sometimes think this can be a cliche interview question but I have to say I am curious.

He's a Medium Head Boy. Nothing too interesting, not too this or that, but he is fascinating nonetheless to someone or something somewhere. (It actually came from our unanimous love of The State.)

You are getting a lot of "Next Big Thing" and "Bands to Watch" mentions lately. What are your thoughts on that?

Our number one priority is making good music as a collective of different tastes, music that we enjoy and love playing. As long as we're digging it, we'll do it, regardless of how it's received -- so it's a fantastic bonus to have people actually like it. We've had such amazing support from this town.

You seem like such a visual band and we noticed the last time we saw you you had a little bit of that going on. What are your aspirations as far as how you present your live performance?

We assume you're referring to our trash-bag-of-feathers-and-glitter/leafblower combo? Haha. We like to put on a fun show and we're always into trying out crazy ideas. That was one of those. If we had unlimited funds, our shows would be crazy huge. We would blow lots of things up.

What are your plans for touring? Is that something you expect to start doing this year? And what can we expect during SXSW?

We want to tour, definitely, but as most of us (with the exception of Jenny) have spent many a hot summer cramped into a van living on 99-cent cheeseburgers and playing empty, dilapidated bars, we feel it might be better for our wallets, hearts and cholesterol levels to stick to places where we can play decent venues to a reasonable audience. So expect some random shows across the country soon. And SXSW is going to be crazy for us! Lots of opportunities to catch us, and as you can imagine, each set will probably be different.

What was the most memorable moment for you as a band last year?
Hard to say! It's all been fun... and it all was kinda blurry.

You do an amazing cover of "Where Did You Sleep Last Night" during your live performances. With new material coming out do you think you will continue do covers during your live set?

Definitely. We love learning and playing covers. We like taking songs, hacking them up with chainsaws, and sewing them back together into our own design.

Show Spotlight: Fantastic Romantic | Tonight (2/6) at The Parish


Prince Klassen is one of Austin’s best kept secrets (despite being from San Antonio) and its time to celebrate his ability to keep things fresh for 27 years. Fantastic Romantic will be taking place Saturday, February 6th at The Parish. Join Knuckle Rumbler, Scion, and Sneak Attack Austin in lighting up the dance floor while listening to jams taken from the lifespan of the DJ that spins your favorite DJs’ parties.

You may know Klassen from being at Nasty’s every Monday with DJ Mel and Beauty Bar every Friday with drunk hipsters but very few of you probably know that he has been featured across the country in SPIN, FADER, and on East Village Radio regularly. This is a man that gives respect and is giving Austin one hell of a party.

Fantastic Points of the Night:

Sneak Attack Austin is going to have a great pop up shop with the latest kicks, gear you can’t find anywhere else, and of course soul.
Scion will have your grab bags of mags and mixtapes that will stay fresh in your car’s cd player. The stops have been pulled out and favors have been used to bring in artists who have influenced and been influenced by Klassen for years and now have the perfect excuse to come party. Playing along side the Prince will be: DJ Orion, Damaged Good$ , and members of Fully Fitted Crew/ Spank Rock DJs PASE ROCK and DEVLIN from DEVLIN & DARKO!!!
If you wear a birthday hat then you get $1 off the cover charge!

Romantic Points of the Night:

You know how babies are made, right? It’s a birthday. That’s all the romance you need.
