Angry Angles’ Retrospective is a 17-song collection that comprises 100% of the studio recordings by the duo of Jay “Reatard” Lindsey and Alix Brown, one that came together shortly after the mid-2005 demise of Lindsey’s long-running Lost Sounds. The sheer immensity of Jay’s musical discography relative to the artist’s demise at the age of 29 in January of 2010 is an undeniably impressive attribute of his legacy. But this is unlike other examples of massive output-footprints built via an uncontrollable sink-or-swim necessity to retain a prolific profile at any cost. This is no sort of prolonged demo or practice session for what came next. 

Sure, extraneous live documents reveal a handful of set items that would turn up on that landmark album, and there’s more than a passing riff or several heard amongst the songs collected here that would do the same. Ms. Brown herself even turned up handling on that album’s "I See You Standing There" and some vocals on "We Who Wait". But the album didn’t really “come next” at all. Angry Angles’ musical demise, at some point during the latter half of 2006, was a direct result of Brown and Lindsey’s demise romantically, but concurrent with the many previous months of activity and productivity was the writing and recording of Blood Visions. 

It’s release in October of 2006 was to be followed closely by a proper studio full-length by Angry Angles, with the latter receiving heavier promotion. Well, whatever it says about…whatever, it can’t be denied that Jay + Alix was a hell of lot easier on the proverbial peepers in a marketing sense than “Jay + his whitey-tighties + pig’s blood”. 

And unlike much of the man’s discography, this was not “The Jay Show” all the way. Brown wrote three of these tracks, the amazing “Apparent Transparent” as well as no-slouch “In My Room” and appropriately, “You Call It Love”. Overall, these songs are guitar-based noise-pop/punk (not “pop-punk”) certainly informed by the garage-rock/punk landscape that Jay was constantly and effortlessly schooling. There’s certainly outside influence but “the hook” is clearly the biggest concern at the end of the day.

Then there’s the five never-before-released songs if we’re talking generosity: An unreleased version of “Things Are Moving” (that kicks off the collection), a cover of the Oblivians’ “Memphis Creep”, and of arguably the most gravitas…three songs (the collection’s closing triad of “Can’t Do It Anymore”, “All the Same” and “Set in Stone”) that came out of a session (recorded by Chris Thief) when the band went to Montreal to perform and ultimately shelved by Jay solely based on the fact that they weren't recorded by Jay. Amongst the preceding 12 tracks, it should be mentioned, are four cover versions, and if it isn’t already a known rule with such a thing and the Jay Reatard discography as a whole, covers are a special thing and well beyond the “here’s something I want you to know I’m on board with!” gesture. We get A.A.’s treatment of Wire’s timeless piece of post-punk pop, “The 15th”, another end of the same basic era but no less hooky in the Urinals’ “Black Hole”, the proto-all-of-that greatness of Devo’s “Blockhead”, and a reorg of the Oblivians’ regional character assassination, “Memphis Creep”.

This retrospective is the result of nine months of work by the involved parties of Goner Records; co-founder and handler of band’s visual presentation, Alix Brown; Adam Shore, Jay's manager/archivist in life and beyond; Tour/sometimes studio drummer, Ryan Rousseau (then of Tokyo Electron and then and now the man responsible for the almighty Destruction Unit.)

Things Are Moving (Unreleased Version)

Angry Angles "Things Are Moving" (Unreleased Version)|| 'Angry Angles' [Goner Records]

"Go Home" is from the Summer Cannibals album 'Full Of It', available May 27th, 2016.

Pre-order at www.killrockstars.com/fullofit

Kill Rock Stars is excited to announce the latest addition to their roster: Portland’s own Summer Cannibals. The brilliant rock band is set to release their third full ­length album Full of It on May 2016.
Led by guitarist/vocalist Jessica Boudreaux, the Cannibals initially cut their teeth on the local circuit, sharing the stage and receiving encouragement from peers such as The Thermals. Along the way, they released a pair of fantastic full­lengths ­­ 2013’s No Makeup and 2015’s Show Us Your Mind — on their own label, New Moss Records. Show Us Your Mind was recorded by legendary NW engineer Larry Crane and was recently named one of the best of 2015 by Sound Opinions co­-host Jim DeRogatis. The band has since spent an unhealthy amount of time on the road, earning accolades and adding plenty of fresh converts to their highly­ charged, no frills attack.
It seems only logical that when the band decided to sign to a label, they chose a label like Kill Rock Stars, which has a long history of putting out fearless, female­ fronted bands like Bikini Kill and Sleater­Kinney. “Summer Cannibals take us back to our roots,” says KRS President Portia Sabin. “Jessica is a great songwriter and the band is super exciting live, it’s a perfect fit.”
The new album Full Of It is the band’s defining statement to date. Recorded at the amazing analog recording studio The Dock with producer Chris Woodhouse (Thee Oh Sees, Wild Flag), the LP is one of those massive leaps forward that every band hopes to achieve at least once in their career. Aided by a new powerhouse rhythm section of drummer Devon Shirley and bassist Jenny Logan and guitarist Marc Swart, the 11 songs spark with that perfect mix of snotty attitude, unbounded energy, and window rattling volume.
For their part, the four musicians keep their collective foot on the gas pedal, roaring through tunes like the jagged, screaming title track and the shouting, fist pumping drive of “Just A Little Bit.” But they’re savvy and talented enough to ease up when it counts. Just listen for those sweet melodies carrying “Say My Name” along or the pair of simmering tunes that close out the album: “Fall In” and “Simple Life.” The whole thing is done and dusted in about 35 minutes. Just enough time to catch your breath and drop the needle on side A again
