Fleshies

Oakland, CA’s Fleshies initial launched themselves from their dingy practice space in 1999. Banshee vocalist Johnny No Moniker led Vonny Bon Bons (bass), Mattowar (acoustic guitar), and Hamiltron (drums) into on-stage fight, leaving real songcraft behind and only drunken violence along with a like of noisy amplifiers. While their regular gigging didn’t relaxed the craziness, it do concentrate the Fleshies’ sleazy artwork punk enough to get some songs inside the revved-up sound. Appearances on several compilations and break up 7″s had been released between gigs and trips, but a full-length wasn’t obtainable until summer time 2001, when Destroy the Dreamer’s Desire was released by Alternate Tentacles. A 10″ picture disk for Adeline adopted; naturally, both had been advertised with incessant and crazy concert events. In early 2003, Fleshies came back to Option Tentacles using the Sicilian. Nothing experienced transformed — typically delicate song game titles like “Maelstrom of Whirling Bullshit” and “This is actually the City Where All of the Dirty Assholes Are Safe and sound” demonstrated that — however the record provided a straight tastier edition of Fleshies’ freaky-ass garage area punk stew. Guitarist Yvan Kawecki emerged aboard somewhere on the way, and in early 2004, pursuing an extraordinary 133 displays in 131 times, the music group added a fresh Fleshie with their rates, bassist Brian Plaskett, who changed Bon Bons. An record of B-sides entitled Gung Ho! also made an appearance on Life Is certainly Abuse Records prior to the music group began focus on a fresh record — one which they would consider their amount of time in creating, instead of bust out in the period of weekly. Per year and half to be holed up in Hamiltron’s Oakland studio room eventually created Scrape the Wall space for Alternative Tentacles, released in June 2006.
