Been a huge fan of this band for, oh, almost 30 years and… used to do the band’s discography site (thru Prongs.org), and just re-getting into them lately.

Well, there is pretty well very little info/interviews with this group around the web these days. And even Youtube offers pretty well nothing live from this sadly defunct Nashville act that worked closely with Jourgensen and Barker back in the 80s-90s, and toured with Pigface in the mid-90s.

Anybody here have any links for live stuff or videos? Anything appreciated. Cheers all!

Underrated band! Some of their songs are absolutely amazing.

Yeah, I always dug them. I talked to John Elliott a few times back when he released that compilation on WTII. Funny that they were technically a Nashville band, but I don’t think I remember him ever playing live here. At least since the early 90’s, when I would’ve been aware.

The tracks he did with Paul Barker are all tremendous. I took the ones from that self-titled comp and the Truth Hurts comp that were from the Barker sessions and put them together as an album, since they all had a similar feel to them.

Exercise In Tension is one of my favorite albums. You can really notice the influence of LORAH album on that record.

Two bad there are only two live tracks available and its both are JD covers.

Just stumbled upon this Beijing music video which i’ve never seen before

Really good sleeper band I often revisit and completely forget how good they are.

Absolutely never knew that existed. I’m loving John’s 91 WRVU t-shirt. Local bands gonna represent.

Yeah, if any of you guys ever come into town, let me know and I’ll be happy to give you some tips on good spots.
