1120 Manhattan Ave.
Brooklyn, NY 11222Pop. 1280
Pop. 1280 are a cyberpunk band from New York City. The Grid is their first 12" release. Members include: Chris Bug, Ivan Lip, John Skultrane, and Andrew S. They got together in 2009 and have released two 7" records, the most recent being a self-released single and split 7" with Philadelphia's Hot Guts.
As dark and sinister as the Jim Thompson novel from which the band borrows their name, these nine dirges of skronky noir are the logical successor to the brand of skree practiced by forebearers the Chrome Cranks, Honeymoon Killers, and Pussy Galore, and along with contemporaries Twin Stumps, White Suns, Woman, and York Factory Complaint are ushering in a new era of punk.
Their music is all about the future that has already happened. Think Videodrome-era David Cronenberg mixed with Escape from New York-era John Carpenter. The Grid was recorded in April of 2010 in the basement of a closed Catholic School. On it are six songs using synthesizers, scrap metal, raccoon screech guitar, and samples about the freaks that inhabit The Grid. Step into it.

Velvet Condom
Velvet Condom was formed during 2005, in Strasbourg, France, by Alice Von (vocals, guitars, keyboards) and Oberst Panizza (programming, keyboards). They consider their music as sad pop tunes played by dead mannequins. As if Synthpop would meet dark guitars and teenage angst lyrics. On one side, the cold and safe synthetics of a condom and the glamorous elegance of velvet on the other.
Their debut EP (8-tracks) was released in 2006, containing minimal electro-wave songs as "Kalter Lippenstift" and "Playgirlz". The band has played several shows in London, Paris, Munich, Athens, Bucharest, Luxemburg, Berlin, Warsaw, Brussels, ... and opened for bands like : Vive la Fete, Who made Who, Fehlfarben, No More, Schwefelgelb, A-Frames, Lesbians on Ecstasy, Jad Wio, Swann Danger, The Weegs, Fliehende Stürme, ...
On stage, the band definitely shows its wilder and noisier side and would mainly use neon tubes and strobe lights to create a psychedelic robot-noise-pop performance. In the beginning of 2008 VC has moved to Berlin and released their second record "Safe & Elegant", distributed by the Dutch label Enfant Terrible, which got very positive feedback fr [Read more]

"The band has two faces: they play electro pop in the best 80's tradition but with a very contemporary feeling AND they play some of the finest indie guitar pop / shoegazer stuff heard since a long time. In a surprising way these two styles fit together very well and the band ends up with one sound for themselves." Stay tuned for the dead mannequin's nouvelle vague.
