NEW MONDAY NIGHT REVIEW published in Mean Street magazine and on newsstands now:

“Monday nights at Il Corral are fast becoming the stuff of underground legend. While the rest of you endure boy-punk Hell somewhere on the Strip, a select few freaks and artbots huddle `midst the amps, laptops and pedal crunk for five or six acts and hours o’ riotous fun for a mere five bux. Secreted behind a grate just off a trend-janky stretch of Melrose, this small sound art venue houses a bookstore, noise collective and the dream of replacing punk rock with staccato bursts of beautiful atonality. Arrestingly bizarre or brutalist acts like Christ with Braces, Bipolar Bears and (justly-named) The Amazements casually set up, blare five-to-forty hellish minutes and clear out, with line-up and setlist frequently as abstract as performance.
