timothy java drumming on “rise, start, go!” by modernsextrash
when modernsextrash found its core members and the group began to gell as musicians “rise, start, go!” was our first crack at huddling together in a rehearsal studio and manifesting music. although a little more raw and live than the first release and where the band is currently going musically, i feel there is a sense of excitement and nervousness in these tracks that makes them pretty special! i hope it was obvious and people enjoyed the fact that we were total NOOBS!
you can see how my personal n00bery and drumming has evolved by viewing some more recent rehearsal footage of “rise, start, go!” on my youtube page.
ps – this video for “thing” goes out to my man john waltmann of four letter lie and 2012 threads. it’s his favorite (so far) modernsextrash song and for the last few years john has become a favorite dude of mine.

Ourstage and The Next Electronic Prodigy modernsextrash
pic from ourstage.com
Ourstage.com recently added modernsextrash to their playlist for a blog post entitled “The Next Electronic Prodigy.” By using the British act “The Prodigy” and the release of their new record “Invaders Must Die” (which also features Dave Grohl) as an example of just how powerful artists in the electronic niche can be, @ourstage has some great things to say about new artists finding success within their site. Ourstage more recently included us in yet another blog post entitled “Hey! You Got Electronica in my Rock Music!” modernsextrash is included in audio examples on their playlist.
Ourstage has been one of my favorite sites to reach new fans on. It takes the cake for one of the most interactive and personally rewarding promotional tools for any band looking to connect with lots and lots of artists or possible fans in the DIY realm.
As of november 29th, modernsextrash is the 8th most popular fan club in the experimental category. Check out the modernsextrash fan club to see Ourstage.com in action.

2012Threads.com is (finally) here!!
a good buddy of ours and member of Four Letter Lie, John Waltmann founded a clothing company called 2012 Threads centering around the lore and hysteria that the year 2012 is bringing to our culture.
when i first saw the clothing, i was INSTANTLY amazed and asked if i could help out in some way. John decided to appoint me to head up some of the business operations of 2012 Threads and plug him into the Panacea3 machine as well.
after a long battle with an overseas web design company and the help of Virtual Monk, we are finally launching the site. you may have noticed some photos of us sporting 2012 Threads and we hope to see you supporting this small company as well. just in time for all your holiday shopping i might add
