Zen Guerrilla were a rock band from San Francisco, California. Musically, the band evolved over their career. Their early sound was characterized by pyschedelic elements, such as delayed guitars and noise washes. Later, Zen Guerrilla fused blues, rock and gospel to create a sound which could be likened to bands such as the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion.
Zen Guerrilla formed in Newark, Delaware in the late 80s. Band members Andy Duvall (drums), Marcus Durant (vocals/harmonica), Carl Horne (bass), and Rich Millman (guitar) came together from local bands Marcus Hook, The Gollywogs, and Stone Groove.
The band released their self-titled CD on Philadelphia-based Compulsiv records in 1992. Soon after, Zen Guerrilla moved to Philadelphia and were regular performers around the city at clubs such as the Kyber Pass Pub. Around this time the band began a grueling touring schedule, which would have them cross the country multiple times through the end of the decade.
A fusion of blues, rock, and gospel, Zen Guerilla’s musical style comes as naturally to them as licking gravy. Their sound is as genuine and as pure as Al Green’s sweat. It screams, it moans, it shakes and it moves.
Zen Guerrilla relocated to San Francisco in 1994. Their constant touring increased their exposure, and, combined with their explosive live show, helped to release albums first with Alternative Tentacles and later Sub Pop.
The band dissolved sometime around 2003. –Wikipedia
Gone was an instrumental trio put together in 1986 by guitarist Greg Ginn. The group was originally rounded out by Andrew Weiss (bass) and Sim Cain (drums) (formerly in Regressive Aid / Scornflakes After recording 2 albums and touring heavily, Ginn disbanded the group in 1987 to concentrate on running SST Records. Weiss and Cain would soon join the Rollins Band. In the early 1990s,
Setlist:
1) Insidious Detraction 2) Peter Gone 3) Rosanne 4) Last Days Of Being Stepped On 5) Climbing Rat’s Wall 6) Turned Over Stone 7) 8) 9) 10) Left Holding The Bag 11) 12)
Regressive Aid was an instrumental band consisting of Simeon Cain (drums), William Tucker (guitar), and Andrew Weiss (bass guitar). Regressive Aid frequently played at City Gardens, a punk rock club in Trenton, New Jersey.
The band later would become Scornflakes, ultimately the same lineup with the addition of a vocalist (Boy White) and a shift into a sound centered on punk, rather than the jazzy-rock dissonance common in songs by Regressive Aid. Following their termination, all of the members of Regressive Aid would become longtime collaborators in the band Ween.
The members of Regressive Aid were featured as characters in the Matt Howarth comic book The Anti-Chair (1983), the title taken from one of the band’s songs. The band also received a plug in Howarth’s graphic novel WRAB: Pirate Television. Cain and Weiss also played in Gone, a three pieced punk instrumental rock outfit, as well as the Rollins Band, while Tucker went on to perform with Ministry in 1989. All three members spent time performing with the supergroup, Pigface, as well.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I first discovered Scornflakes at KDU it was only in the last few years I learned of Regressive Aid. Plus I never noticed that members of these bands went on to be Gone, Rollins Band, Pigface, etc. But besides just wanting to play their record because I liked it – the album had a side long side – so it has the secondary use of being a good record to play when you had to run out to the bathroom while doing your show.
Halo of Flies were Amphetamine Reptile Records kingpin Tom Hazelmyer with in-house engineer Tim MacLaughlin on bass & John Anglim on drums,
This is a live tape from when they played the Khyber on March 15, 1990.
Thanks for the tape files Don Sheluga & the song titles – Christian.
The precursor to Tar was a hardcore punk outfit called Blatant Dissent, which formed in DeKalb, Illinois where singer/guitarist John Mohr and drummer Mike Greenlees were attending Northern Illinois University. Joining Mohr and Greenlees in Tar were original bassist Tim Mescher (only until 1991 and who also played for Snailboy), bassist Tom Zaluckyj and guitarist Mark Zablocki. Zaluckyj and Mohr played unique instruments, crafted of aluminum, designed by Ian Schneller of Specimen Products.[2]
3 different Butthole Surfers shows from the Chestnut Cabaret – the first is from one of Don Sheluga’s tapes (Thanks Don) and the other 2 were already up on archive.org
I missed some song titles if anyone can figure out the titles of the ones listed as unknown please let me know.
Butthole Surfers Live at Chestnut Cabaret on 10-21-1989
One of my all-time favorite bands to see live The Cows, were one of the best of the 90’s Amphetamine Reptile bands. I never taped any of their shows probably so I could just enjoy the show. Luckily Don Sheluga (THANKS) did tape them twice from the Khyber one from November 90 and another from October 92. Sorry I didn’t do that well with the song titles -I’ll try to fix them later.
I remember this band name and most likely saw them at some point back in the 90s but I have no info on them. After listening to this I’m surprised I wasn’t more into them back then. They would have fit in well with lots of bands liked then like Polvo, Seam, Bastro, etc.
To the best of my knowledge all of the music links are for recordings that are out of print but if you enjoy what you hear, buy other records and support the artist(s) and/or labels: if you don't approve of having your material displayed and would like to have it down...
