Ultra Pulverize: FREE EP

Louisville's Favorite pseudo Cyborg Trio has released a 7 song album on Bandcamp.com for FREE. 'Underground Vol.1' is a demo style mishmash of early sounding DEVO, Throbbing Gristle, and Deutsch-Amerikanische Freundschaft spit through a distortion pedal. It runs the gamut from brutal german electronica to computers in love (also very german, see:Kraftwerk).  Maybe never intended for mass distribution, it makes a nice addition for UP fans and lovers of obscure B-sides. Grab it now while the getting is good.

Jason Noble Benefit - This Saturday

The Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts hosts the World Premiere of the documentary film "Burn to Shine 4: Louisville" this Saturday. "Burn to Shine" is a documentary series that showcases various city's local musical talent performing in buildings that are slated to be torn down. The Louisville edition details Lucky Pineapple's William Benton quest to preserve one of Clarksville's strangest houses. The film includes performances by Will Oldham, Parlour, Shipping News, Ultra Pulverize, Lucky Pineapple, and many more.

The event, which will be at the Kentucky Center's Bomhard Theatre, will also feature LIVE performances by Bonnie "Prince" Billy and the Cairo Gang, Liberation Prophecy, and Rachel Grimes (of the Rachels).

If that wasn't enough, proceeds from this event will benefit Jason Noble who is fighting cancer. Those who don't know Jason from his many Louisville indie bands (The Rachels, Rodan, Shipping News) may recognize him from Ear X-tacy. Jason doesn't have health insurance and undoubtedly would love to see you out there on Saturday!

Tickets are only $20 which is the cheapest you will ever pay for a movie world premiere / musical performance / benefit show at the Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts. Tickets are general admission and still available.

Benefit Show @ Rustic Frog 3/1

I don't know many details, but apparently a 3 year old girl got into a car wreck and needs our help. A bunch of bands are putting on a show this Saturday at The Rustic Frog and the proceeds will be going to the family to help pay medical costs. Show starts at 7pm(I think) and its 10 bux at the door.

Here is the list of bands playing:

Ultra Pulverize - That Book Was Written By A Maniac
The Kodiaks - Heat The Freeze
Bloody Knuckles Crew - Fuck Your Cause
Murals - Strange Dream
Sub-Urban Situation
Biscuit Race
DJ-Sdot

Last fridays Wax Fang/Ultra Pulverize/Venus Trap show

We missed Venus Trap but caught a great show from Ultra Pulverize and Wax Fang. The only thing I am still upset about is that I didn't get an OCP... email us if you aren't down with OCP (thanks for the joke and great review Backseat Sandbar!)

Below is a video of "Hearts are Made for Beating" and some photos...
