« The Hives - Tonight! | Main | Mercer and Malkmus to play Buckman Bash »
Rather than write something, or post a song, I’m giving you a photo essay as to why you should go see Monotonix tonight at the Satyricon. (But if you really want to read or listen you can.)
No single medium, however, can accurately detail just how awesome the Monotonix are live. It’s catharsis through crisis. Just go and thank me later.




Dear blah,
Know what the fuck you're talking about before looking like a dumb ass.
Thanks for reading!
So I guess I was mistaken. Your little rag did write a tiny bit about one of the previous times Monotonix came to town. However, you still were late posting about the latest show, and this paper is still tragically out of the loop with the full music scene, even locally.
You have yet to print one thing about the passing of Steve Casmano! I guess he just didn't play in any of the "IT" bands in the PM's little world. The Flapjacks, The Jackals, Sado-Nation, The Oily-Bloodmen. These are bands that helped build the scene we have here today, and Steve played in all of them. If you knew what the fuck you're talking about you'd know this.
Way to support the local scene, PM.
Hey Blah
Thanks for the constructive criticism.
One thing, since it's pretty obvious who you are, please don't feel it is necessary to post anonymously.
We're all friends here.
Take care,
ezra
Oh you think you know me? I bet I could walk into the PM offices today with t-shirt that says "BLAH" on the from of it and you'd still have no clue who I am, since I have never talked to any of you outside of your blogs.
I'll continue to post as Blah just like I always have, since it's the one word that sums up the PM's writing staff so well.

Duly noted. Thanks for reading and commenting.
So the PM finally got off is ass and realized that Monotonix exists. I bet you got tipped off because of that PitchforkMedia story that was up a couple of weeks back. You sure didn't get a heads up about them from their amazing sets at SXSW last year, since Ezra was too busy snubbing PDX bands, and going to see the same ol' boring crap to explore anything new, no matter how big the buzz was. You ignored them the last 3 times they played Portland too. I guess they just weren't promoted by the right advertiser those times, huh.
Posting this at 5pm on the night of the show is something I shouldn't be surprised about seeing how busy you must be keeping constant watch of Snoozy Stephen Malkmus' every move. Lucky for me, I quit relying on your birdcage liner for musical direction a long time ago. I hope others do the same, until the PM gets a staff with their heads out of the sand and their ears to the ground instead.
