“Fresh off their Arrested Development party at Holocene earlier this week, Banana Stand Media have announced their new live album—and this one’s coming from And And And, who performed and recorded a show in the Banana Stand basement back in December. Here’s a clip of the song “Bow Down” from that show (video by Collective-47); typically, it’s great. The album will be released on Tuesday, May 21 and will include several new/unreleased songs from the band, and to celebrate, And And And is playing a show on the day of the album release at Bunk Bar with Sama Dams (click it to ticket!); meanwhile, they’re about to hit the road with Sun Angle. And And And’s Live from the Banana Stand is Banana Stand’s first release since partnering with CD Baby, who have become an official sponsor of the live recordists—they’ll manufacture and distribute this and other upcoming releases from Banana Stand.” -End Hits

Our Band of the Week, this week, hails from the depths of a southern seaside haven: San Diego! Octa#grape is four dudes ripping for dudes that wanna rip.
This video was shot—on iPhones duh, during our ten days of glorious recording at Singing Serpent Studios,—where Octa#grape’s lead shredder Glen works—with the one-and-only Rafter Roberts. We basically wanted to thank the Singing Serpent crew for such an amazing experience, and we wanted to share Octa#grape with you because they’ve become one of our favorite bands.
We missed our Portland band of the week that we fucking love, here’s your kiss for our makeup! It’s Sons of Huns! “Daddy what’s Rock N Roll?” “Son, Sons of Huns”
