Sebadoh – Khyber Philadelphia, PA

The tape of this show has no date on it – it just says Sebadoh & Khyber. So, I’m not really sure when it is from. My best guess would be around 1992 – 1994. I’m pretty sure this is the Sebadoh with Lou, Jason and Eric although I could be wrong. My clues are it is not the Kyhber show where the band had a fight on stage and Lou left. Also, the songs are all from up to Bubble and Scrape.

Just put updates to the song titles Thanks for the comments. Sorry you’ll have to rename the mp3 files yourself.

More Fiends

More Fiends sound is hard to describe. Here’s an attempt to describe them from the Sounds magazine (London):
An explosion of vivid colours both in looks and personalities, More Fiends prove to be illuminating musically too. With superfuzz thrash, disoriented voodoo rhythm and gloriously camp vocal extremities, they have come up with one far out wild party. The powerful effect of the Fiends’ multi-ingredient homebrew is a drug free buzz for quality kitsch lovers everywhere.
I know for me they expanded my musical horizons further than just the faster & louder hardcore that dominated the 80’s all ages scene (not that I didn’t like that as well)

To me they are one of the Philadelphia bands most in tune with the true spirit of punk. The idea of early Punk was bands setting out to be their own weird thing. More Fiends achieve that – they sound like no one else and you couldn’t pigeon hole them into some category (i.e. hardcore, crossover, emo & all the ridiculous labels that exist today.)

The core of the band was Elizabeth and Allen Fiend plus many other people over the years. Here are at least some of the other members: Ron Fiend, Rich Poor (Total Fucking Destruction, Brutal Truth). Bob Bludgeon, Julie, Tony, Dave Fiend (Kitschchao) & Bob Fiend.
Elizabeth for some time now has been making the amazing tv show BiG TeA PaRtY
BiG TeA PaRtY is about a funky, elegant, healthy and ecological lifestyle. Use our web site, videos, articles, recipes, projects and photos to inspire your transformation to a happier, livelier existence. Click to read our Mission.
Below I have 3 cd’s worth of More Fiends. Music From Big Tea Party (the musical backdrop to the show. – some of which I believe is solo Allen stuff), Dark Side Of Genius (Like an explosion through a maze of sound with jagged schizophrenic convulsions. The weirdest of all More Fiends music. Demented and abrasive lo-fi basement recordings. Your Mother won’t like this one! – Mostly the later Dave & Bob Fiend era) and Nibble (live recording mostly from 1992/1993 see the notes below the tracks for info on who was in the band and where it was from.) Below that I’ve collected a bunch of flyers for your viewing pleasure.

Seam – Khyber 6/25/92

Seam bio from Touch & Go site: Seam began as a three-piece in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Although Seam’s “pedigree” included Bitch Magnet and Superchunk, Seam’s reticent melodicism and subtly moving guitar washes occupy a realm quite different than the illustrious pasts of Seam’s members might suggest. Seam released their first single Days of Thunder on Homestead Records in October of 1990, and their second single Granny 9X on Merge Records in early ’92. The band released their first full-length, Headsparks, on Homestead in 1992. After a move to Chicago, Seam also moved to Touch and Go for the release of an EP and three full-length albums, the last being The Pace Is Glacial in 1998.
This is a live set from the Khyber from June 25th 1992. They were the headliner with CakeKitchen opening up for them. A couple of tracks from Kernal but mostly from Headsparks and the early 7″s. For more on Seam go to the Touch & Go Site. Also, check out Sooyoung Park’s current band Ee at Facebook

CakeKitchen – Khyber 6/25/92

Cakekitchen

CakeKitchen is Graeme Jefferies with various other musicians. Graeme had been in Nocturnal Projections and This Kind of Punishment with his brother Peter Jefferies. I’m not 100% sure but judging by the time frame it was probably Graeme with bassist Rachael King and drummer Robert Key. This show was on June 25, 1992 at the Khyber opening for Seam. Lots of tracks off the World of Sand album and the earlier Time Flowing Backwards album. Greame is still putting out releases – the latest is Kangaroos In My Top Paddock.

Uptown Bones 7inch cover

Uptown Bones were one of my favorite Philly bands of the late 80’s early 90’s. They seemed to be heavily influences by the Love Muffin but added in some psychedelic and noise elements to it. The band was Rich (Ashtabula, Latimer) vocals & Guitar, Andy Clees on Guitar and Noel on drums. The original bass player, Scooter Anderson (Thanks Eric & Art) was later replaced by Art (Photon Band, Tons of Nuns, Lilys, etc.) Collected below are 2 demo tapes (I don’t have the track names for the 2nd one) the first 7″, the split 7″ with Les Thugs and then the 2 cd’s that came out on the French Black & Noir Records. As an added bonus there some Flyers at the very bottom + a video I shoot from Johnny Brenda’s which was a sort of reunion with Noel, Art, Rich along with Brian from ELM. It was before the newish band Mt Vengeance which is Rich Fravel – guitars and vocals & Brian Campbell (Electric Love Muffin & Poppy)- bass & Nick Santore – drums

Meatmen – Longmarch Philly 6/16/84

The Meatmen from Longmarch on June 16th 1984. This was the Meatmen after Tesco Vee relocated to DC with Brian Baker and Lyle Preslar of Minor Threat. The show was shortly before the War of the Superbikes album came out. So there are some songs from that album and others from We’re the Meatmen and You Suck & Dutch Hercules. Meatmen put on a great show with something to offend everyone. I don’t know if there really were people offended by the Meatmen but how can you take a band seriously that has a song called Crippled Children Suck. Just good twisted obnoxious fun. To check out all things Tesco Vee and Meatmen go to TESCOVEE.COM

White Trash – Mne plevat’ na zritelia

White Trash scurried out of the ashes of a Philly band called Nobody’s Favorite sometime in 1986. We played our first show at Abe’s steaks on 40th. street. It was a small room with better than average sound and a truly great crowd of regulars. We rocketed through a set that was largely comprised of songs that we were getting ready to record for our yet untitled EP.

We recorded JETLAG every other Sunday night over the course of three months. We used a borrowed Fostex x-15 four track recorder and two microphones The two live recordings were back to back shows. We played John’s on July 4th 1987 and the Rodman street block party the next day. The show at John’s was basically a drunken loud mess with Steve and Parris fighting early on in the set. The block party was also a drunken mess, but without any fighting. It was our last show ever.
live recordings
John’s:
We turned everything up till it hurt and got shit-faced before the sound check. I remember Steve and Parris arguing about something and thinking that any minute they would start punching each other.
We had more beers waiting to play and by the time we did play we no longer cared about the audience. We opened with Riled by a Nazi playing it so fast that everyone took a couple steps backwards away from us. We basically sucked that night.
Rodman street:
The day after John’s…a Sunday. We drank Iron City beer waiting to play. It was a long wait because we were the last band to play that day. Clouds rolled in and the sunny day turned into that weird yellow-purple pre storm sky. We opened with Love Ain’t Pretty and gently worked up the crowd until there was spinning and crashing in the pit. The rain held off till after we played. That was our final show–we didn’t know it at the time though. Fortunately, we didn’t suck that day.

John-bass, vocals
Dave-mouth
Steve-drums
Parris-guitar

the title quote,
“Mne plevat’ na zritelia”
“I spit on the spectator”
from Dostoevsky’’s Notes From the Underground
