Fri., March 5, 10-12 PM
I'll be on again Wed., March 10 from 8-10 PM playing all British post-punk and then again Fri., March 12 from 10-12 PM doing a regular show.
1. Gaunt, "Spike", Anyway Records and Datapanik Records: I have sought to acquire all of the issues of Columbus, Ohio's Datapanik label. It was essentially a limited issue 7" punk label of the late 80's, early 90's, releasing predominantly Columbus area bands. The label was obviously influenced by Pere Ubu, what with the name (named after the Ubu ep Datapanik in the Year Zero) and the layout of the label which is an obvious homage to David Thomas' Hearthan Records. The most important bands to get their start on Datapanik are Gaunt and the New Bomb Turks (which happens to be the best punk show I've ever seen . . . Gaunt and the New Bomb Turks upstairs at the Hong Kong restaurant in Harvard Square at the height of their powers in 1992 or early 1993). I believe Anyway Records was run by Columbus' Used Kids Records. I recently acquired this 7" and the next one I played on tonight's show. I now have all the releases except Big Red Sun, New Bomb Turks/Gaunt split, v/a Cowtown Volume One. I should be there soon.
2. Girly Machine, "O.K.", Datapanik Records: From the Girly Machine/Pica Huss split 7".
