“Pioneer makes lovely music. Manic Eye Media makes wonderful videos. So it stands to reason that the two working together, as seen here in this video of the band playing “Memorial Day” live at The Basement, is so great it practically makes your eyes pop out of your head. Just watch it and you’ll see. If you like the song, check it out again over at Pioneer’s Bandcamp, along with an untitled track from the same session and lots of other demos, and then make plans to see the band Jan. 25 at Mickey’s Tavern.”

Jeremiah stopped by the Blast House to lay down a track from this year’s “Drugs to Make You Sober”, accompanied by John Mayer from Surgeons in Heat.

“Ryan Heraly and crew at Manic Eye Media done did it again. This time,Surgeons In Heat are on the case with some silky smooth, high-register heartache in the unreleased track “Never Noticed.” Ensconced in the sultry, grotto-like confines of Blast House Studios, the band eases through the song that wouldn’t have sounded out of place on this year’s self-titled EP—and gets a further boost to the ’70s feel from the cool grindhouse intro. Now you have a new song to scream for the band to play when it takes theCascio Stage at Summerfest July 10 and the Memorial Union Terrace Aug. 3.”

Check out this live set from the Hussy featuring three songs from their brand new album Cement Tomb Mind Control. Read the article and see the video featured on the AV Club Madison site.

Zola Jesus recently stopped by to record a couple tracks at Madison’s own Blast House Studios to participate in a Soundcheck Session with us before hitting the road on a nearly month long national tour. Here we have “Night”, a single from her 2010 release ‘Stridulum II’ that you should be plenty familiar with by now. Additionally, you can get a taste for the difference a live drum track makes and see it for yourself when Zola Jesus returns to Madison to perform live at the High Noon Saloon this Friday April 29th.
