Surplus 1980: Surplus 1980 has a well-chosen name—as long as you pick up on the right musical references—the skewed-punk/post-punk and spiky new wave ones: Essential Logic, Pere Ubu, The Fall, The Slits, The Ex, first-album Gang of Four. Surplus 1980 is a louder and faster band than any of those, but draws from the same well of shouty discordant rock ’n’ roll clamor, and exhibits the same joy in complaining. Chord progressions are less friendly than on a Chuck Berry record, but have the same elemental drive, and the drums—plus Staiano’s various re-purposed percussion metals and tools—are featured up front to make sure the audience doesn’t miss them.
There's plans for a new album as well as a large ensemble with G.w. Sok on vocals.

Ötzi: Haunting three-piece from Oakland channels the spirit of Juju-era Siouxie, Euro synth wailers and the tortured souls of early humyns trapped in glacial ice.
