Gear Gods: Rigged featuring HOT NERDS threeonegrecords 2024-03-30 | Gear Gods: Rigged featuring HOT NERDSIt’s simple really. Insert a big word here to describe two people falling in love and you’ll get the beginnings of Hot Nerds (Das Four Eyez Kult). In the fall of 2010 Alia Jyawook (Bitter Sober, Vaginals) and Nathan Joyner (Secret Fun Club, Some Girls, All Leather, Leg Lifters) met, and immediately started playing music together. Alia tickled the electronic ivories while Nathan fumbled his way around an old drum kit that Alia had rescued from a trash heap, and yelped at the top of his lungs, “I Don’t Wanna Go…..”. That was that. The beginning of something very beautiful and exciting for the young couple. So they did what any newly weds would do. They loaded up their hatchback and began playing shows in and around San Diego County. Quickly becoming the headlines of water cooler gossip around the tiny music scene they had submerged themselves in.SPLAT! Run over by an Oldsmobile while crossing the street on foot, Nathan was pronounced dead at the scene, only one day away from his 2 year anniversary of being in a relationship with Alia. Police reports indicate that Nathan let out a gasp while being transported from the scene of the accident to the hospital, giving paramedics an indication that he was not deceased. He fought for his life, literally for the next few months. His friends and family were left wondering if he would ever walk again or if he would end up becoming mentally disabled. Once again he proved the white coats wrong. Nathan pulled through with new metal parts replacing some of the bones in his body. Unable to resume playing the drums, Nathan and Alia decided to make the best move Hot Nerds could have possibly made. They enlisted Alia’s childhood friend, Thomas F. O’connell (Idols Plague) to take over the drumming duties. Nathan returned to playing his favorite instrument, guitar. Now they were cooking with napalm! Tommy’s drumming added so much more to the bands back bone. Playing faster with more precision all the while keeping the dance party guessing what will happen next. Nathan’s guitar, sounding more like a synthesizer, mixed with Alia’s bass synth like PB & J. They were now a fully formed band, using real instruments to make their version of REALLY loud dance music. Easily setting themselves apart in a heavily saturated genre of musiThe trio offer up a new brand of dance music to shake a tail feather to, cut up a shag rug, or even “twerkulate” if you feel so inclined to do so. Their live show will leave you wanting more as they blast through two and a half minute songs that are reminiscent of attention deficit disorder symptoms. They seem to have taken the “DAFT PUNK” song, “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger” as a literal challenge, achieving all of those adjectives with their music. It’s obvious that nothing can stop these three nerds, damn hot ones at that too!c.
Cult And Culture Episode 38 - Nick Reinhart of Tera Melos threeonegrecords 2024-03-28 | In this episode, Justin and Luke talk with Nick Reinhart (Tera Melos, Disheveled Cuss, Death Grips, Pinback). They talk less about the technical proficiency that Nick clearly has, but the morals connected with being a musician. Nick reflects on the importance of Tera Melos for himself, and Nick and JP share the memories and lore surrounding Tera Melos playing with The Locust, considering how technical, weird, and aggressive music emerged during that time. Reinhart also shares a bit about his process for his solo project, Disheveled Cuss, a more "normal" approach to music than he has ever done, which for him felt like one of the riskier things he could do. They also encourage the audience to consider the artistic choices bands make when performing, from counting into a song to the intentionality of talking (or not talking) to the crowd. They discuss the question: "Does it still ALL come back to Fugazi?" and muse on the concept of selling your music to a McDonald's commercial for a million dollars, culminating in a pact.The concept of Cult and Culture began as a short segment created by Justin Pearson, an internationally known musician, record label owner (Three One G Records), author, and actor. He is perhaps best known as bassist for bands such as Dead Cross, The Locust, and Some Girls as well as vocalist for Deaf Club, Swing Kids, and Planet B. Having traveled the world touring in hardcore and punk bands since age 15, Justin has come to know and work with a broad spectrum of captivating personalities and brilliant minds, many of which are key figures in the realm of popular culture and cult followings alike-- from being on the soundtrack to John Waters’ Cecil B. Demented, to acting in an Asia Argento’s Incompresa, to playing in Dead Cross with Mike Patton and Dave Lombardo. Cult and Culture arose as an opportunity to document bits and pieces of the DIY-driven, subversive world of art Pearson identifies with- one that many are not aware of or perhaps have misconceptions about.Eventually, Pearson joined up with producer and bandmate Luke Henshaw (Sonido De La Frontera, Planet B, Satanic Planet, First Power Crew) to build the idea into a proper podcast, now recorded at his own PengOne Studios in San Diego. Henshaw has collaborated with hip hop legends such as Invisible Skratch Piklz’ D-Styles and Q-Bert, Kool Keith, in addition to being immersed in the world of Cumbia alongside Sonido De La Frontera bandmate Karlos Paez (B Side Players). He also recently scored the music for upcoming documentary Sk8face, which tells the history of skateboard graphics. In this way, both Justin and Luke are influenced by a diverse array of subcultures that all have connected roots. John Waters was one of the first people interviewed for the podcast- an icon of both cult and culture. Since then, guests have included a broad scope of musicians, producers, authors, and anyone passionate about what they do-- anyone from Grammy-winning musician Juan Alderete (Mars Volta, Racer X, creator of Pedals And Effects) to actor Michael Malarkey (Vampire Diaries, Project Bluebook), from San Diego Black Panther Party members to longtime partners Nicola and Adam in electro-punk band ADULT. or The Satanic Temple cofounder Lucien Greaves (who would go on to form Satanic Planet with Luke and Justin as a direct result of their podcast conversation). The focus is not intended to be solely on people in any one realm, and because guests are friends and family, the conversations are frank, informal yet well-informed, and genuine. Pearson and Henshaw seek to achieve a casual openness, blurring lines between traditional guest and host.

PLANET B Terrible Purpose feat. Ric Scales (Official video) threeonegrecords 2024-03-13 | PLANET B "Terrible Purpose" feat. Ric Scales from the Fiction Prediction LPPurchase here: threeoneg.com/archive/vinyl/fiction-predictionJustin Pearson (Dead Cross, Deaf Club, The Locust), Luke Henshaw (Sonido de la Frontera), Kevin Avery (Field Day, Retox) and Scott Osment (Deaf Club, Glassing) formed Planet B with the shared purpose of creating music subversive in sound and sobering in message. Their music lays somewhere just out of reach of genre, with aesthetics rooted in hip hop, hardcore punk, turntablism, and 70s-80s horror movie scores. It is catchy, heavily percussive, and eerie all at once. The band’s first self-titled LP showcased the band collaborating with artists such asKool Keith, Nick Zinner (Yeah Yeah Yeahs), Martin Atkins (ex-PiL, Killing Joke, Ministry, Pigface), K. Joseph Karam (The Locust), and Sonny Kay (The VSS, Angel Hair). The band has also released splits with electronic punk duo ADULT. and turntablist collective Invisibl Skratch Piklz. The band also formed an offshoot with The Satanic Temple co-founder and spokesperson, Lucien Greaves; this project is called Satanic Planet. Fiction Prediction sees a similar array of collaborators.Planet B’s second LP has been a long time in the making. Obviously, over this span of time, there has been an almost unimaginable amount of surreality and insanity to pull from when creating the band’s unique hip-hop-punk-meets-sci-fi-horror-movie sonic aesthetic. As always, the sound is as confrontational as it is catchy, the lyrics scathing and the beats bizarre. Earworms abound. As with the band’s first release, there are a host of guest collaborations on the various tracks, from Josie Cotton to David Scott Stone (ex-LCD Soundsystem, Melvins), D-Styles (Invisibl Skratch Piklz), and more. Perhaps most personally meaningful are the instrumental contributions from Gabe Serbian (The Locust) and Eric Livingston (Mamaleek), both family to the band, who have each passed on from this dimension and back to whatever radical planet they came from since the creation of the album.Video by Daisy HeroinFootage filmed by Becky DiGiglio
Cult & Culture Podcast Episode 37 feat. Satanic Planet threeonegrecords 2024-03-07 | In the latest episode of Cult and Culture, Luke and Justin have a conversation with Lucien Greaves, co-founder of The Satanic Temple and Satanic Planet. Some may remember that they had done an earlier episode with him in 2019; since then, and largely as a result of that podcast conversation, they created Satanic Planet, a musical project which combines the previously formed Planet B with the addition of Greaves (They also went on to enlist Dave Lombardo for the recording of both albums). Here, they discuss the evolution of the band from their initial vision, and how the newest album which is currently being recorded has shifted from the first in numerous ways, including the overall purpose and instrumentation used. Lucien gives insight into being on stage as a vocalist for the first time, and the ability to really enjoy the experience and share positive energy with the crowd rather than the more combative lecture settings he has become accustomed to. They also reflect on playing the Indiana State Capitol show as a counter to Christian Fundamentalist Sean Feucht's "Let Us Worship" tour, and talk about the future of the band, including their goal of playing the DC Capitol Building.The concept of Cult and Culture began as a short segment created by Justin Pearson, an internationally known musician, record label owner (Three One G Records), author, and actor.

They cover its beginnings, how it operates with what is essentially three drummers (two live drummers and Luke using two MPCs), and the process of writing lyrics for a band that may be too strange for people to get totally comfortable with, having one foot in hip hop and one in punk. With their second full LP, Fiction Prediction, they consider the evolution of the band, the influences driving them, and the differences from one album to the next. They also talk about the visual aesthetics of their performances as well as other memorable performance setups they've seen, and their "definitively maximal" sound.The concept of Cult and Culture began as a short segment created by Justin Pearson, an internationally known musician, record label owner (Three One G Records), author, and actor.

The Locust - Live at Hillcrest Landmark Theatre (San Diego, CA) 2000 threeonegrecords 2024-02-08 | The Locust played the San Diego premiere of Cecil B. Demented by John Waters. The film stars Melanie Griffith as a snobby A-list Hollywood actress who is kidnapped by a band of terrorist filmmakers; they force her to star in their underground film. Stephen Dorff stars as the eponymous character and leader of the group, with Alicia Witt, Adrian Grenier, Michael Shannon, and Maggie Gyllenhaal co-starring as the rest of his gang of filmmakers.This footage was the fist show the band played as a four piece, after Dave Astor left, and Gabe Serbian moved from guitar to drums. The band candidly played in adult diapers, as a nod to their comrade in the art world, John Waters. The performance took place at the Hillcrest Landmark Theaters back in 2000.Filmed by Russell White.

NONEXISTENT NIGHT Tessellations threeonegrecords 2024-01-26 | Nonexistent Night "Tessellations" from In the Middle of a Boiling Sea LPAvailable here: threeoneg.com/archive/vinyl/in-the-middle-of-a-boiling-sea-lpCarrie Feller (who creates gloom-synth earworms under the moniker Hexa), Sal Gallegos and John Rieder (of the instrumental noise-rock duo Secret Fun Club) first began working together in mid-2019. The odd, left-field idea was a cover of “I Was a Teenage Werewolf” by The Cramps, which was eventually featured on the compilation Really Bad Music for Really Bad People (Three One G, 2020). This unlikely-but-in-retrospect-perfectly-sensible collaboration continued on in spring 2021, when Carrie recruited Sal and John as the rhythm section for a new instrumental composition. The result was “Prelude in Terror,” a sonic partnership so thrilling and intuitive that a full project as a trio seemed like the only rational next step. Nonexistent Night formed soon after, and the three musicians began writing the songs that would become the new LP In The Middle of A Boiling Sea over the subsequent 12 months. The band made its live debut in June 2022 and then, with the blessing and support of the label Three One G, began production of their record throughout late 2022 and early 2023. The band recently added Alia Jyawook (Scary Pierre, ex-Hot Nerds) as permanent cellist and guitarist and are already working on new songs for a follow-up record. Influenced by bands like Three Mile Pilot, Rachel’s, Slint, Chelsea Wolfe, King Woman, Kate Bush, June of 44, PJ Harvey, Nick Cave, Om, Low, Converge, and Tristeza, Nonexistent Night is elegiac, dramatic, and tinged with dread: post-rock for a drowning world.
Cult & Culture Podcast Episode 35 feat. Rob Moran of Unbroken, Some Girls threeonegrecords 2024-01-25 | Episode 35 of Cult and Culture is a conversation with Rob Moran, filmed and recorded in one of San Diego's best bars/restaurants, Kindred. Rob is a musician in bands such as Unbroken, Some Girls, Over My Dead Body, Narrows, and others, as well as co-owner of Heartwork Coffee. Luke, Justin, and Rob discuss the formation of San Diego hardcore legends Unbroken, and the unconventional influences (such as The Smiths, The Cure, and Depeche Mode) they pulled from to bring something different to hardcore/straight edge aesthetics and sound. Rob also talks about the feeling of "otherness" that is common in San Diego, finding it hard to find the cultures that you truly identify with, remembers the overwhelming emotions that came with the Unbroken reunion shows, and recalls how San Diego formed its own scene in the shadow of Los Angeles and right alongside Tijuana. They wrap up the podcast by talking more about Heartwork, the coffee shop Rob is co-owner of, and the connection it has to the punk community. Ultimately, Rob shares his overall viewpoint of life which is to acknowledge that life is a meat grinder that everyone is sucked into, but that it's important to make the world a kinder, more beautiful place while we're here through our art, whatever that may be.The concept of Cult and Culture began as a short segment created by Justin Pearson, an internationally known musician, record label owner (Three One G Records), author, and actor.

NONEXISTENT NIGHT Unofficial Soundtrack to the Unconscious threeonegrecords 2024-01-25 | Nonexistent Night "Unofficial Soundtrack to the Unconscious" from In the Middle of a Boiling Sea LPAvailable here: threeoneg.com/archive/vinyl/in-the-middle-of-a-boiling-sea-lpCarrie Feller (who creates gloom-synth earworms under the moniker Hexa), Sal Gallegos and John Rieder (of the instrumental noise-rock duo Secret Fun Club) first began working together in mid-2019. The odd, left-field idea was a cover of “I Was a Teenage Werewolf” by The Cramps, which was eventually featured on the compilation Really Bad Music for Really Bad People (Three One G, 2020). This unlikely-but-in-retrospect-perfectly-sensible collaboration continued on in spring 2021, when Carrie recruited Sal and John as the rhythm section for a new instrumental composition. The result was “Prelude in Terror,” a sonic partnership so thrilling and intuitive that a full project as a trio seemed like the only rational next step. Nonexistent Night formed soon after, and the three musicians began writing the songs that would become the new LP In The Middle of A Boiling Sea over the subsequent 12 months. The band made its live debut in June 2022 and then, with the blessing and support of the label Three One G, began production of their record throughout late 2022 and early 2023. The band recently added Alia Jyawook (Scary Pierre, ex-Hot Nerds) as permanent cellist and guitarist and are already working on new songs for a follow-up record. Influenced by bands like Three Mile Pilot, Rachel’s, Slint, Chelsea Wolfe, King Woman, Kate Bush, June of 44, PJ Harvey, Nick Cave, Om, Low, Converge, and Tristeza, Nonexistent Night is elegiac, dramatic, and tinged with dread: post-rock for a drowning world.

Angel Hair - Live at Bronco Billys Pizza in Walnut Creek, CA on 3/23/94 threeonegrecords 2024-01-12 | Angel Hair - Live at Bronco Billy's Pizza in Walnut Creek, CA on 3/23/94(The show was arranged by Sarah Kirsch who finagled Angel Hair onto an "open mic night" type thing with a few other mostly metal bands.)Angel Hair began in late 1992 in Boulder, Colorado, and as PunkNews.org described them: “Angel Hair was a five-piece from Colorado whose music would grow to be associated with the chaotic, inventive San Diego scene of the early nineties. Bands such as Heroin, Antioch Arrow, Swing Kids, Clikitat Ikatowi and Mohinder are good reference points, but Angel Hair had a unique intensity that not even their West Coast peers could match.” After many changes the lineup solidified in early 1994, issuing a split 7" EP with Bare Minimum on Titanic Records, and touring the west coast. The lineup included guitarists Andy Arahood (Red Sparowes) and Josh Hughes (The VSS, Pleasure Forever, Rabbits, SSOLD), bassist Todd Corbett (Stiffwhiff), drummer Paul Iannacito (Generalissimo), and vocalist Sonny Kay (The VSS, Year Future, Mind Rider). During that tour, they recorded the 4-song Gravity EP with Matt Anderson in Chula Vista, which was released in time for a six week summer tour around the US in 1994. In that time they also released a split EP with The Fisticuffs Bluff on Unleaded Records. In the fall of '94, they traveled to San Diego again to record the "Insect Mortality" 12" which was released on Gravity in May 1995, four months after Angel Hair had broken up. Drummer Paul Iannacito moved away abruptly following a west coast tour over Christmas, and the band, feeling he was irreplaceable, called it quits after a little more than two years. During this time, they toured with peers such as Monsula, Clikatat Ikatowi, Spitboy, Garden Variety, J Church, Bare Minimum, Antioch Arrow, the Yah Mos, the Fucking Angels and the Vicious Ginks.The band explains of the release: “‘Insect Immortality’ combines nearly all our previous releases, certainly all the ones worth hearing. Most were recorded by Gravity's Matt Anderson in San Diego in a variety of DIY spaces and setups, none of which would qualify as a studio per se. They were recorded quickly, mixed immediately, and often available on tour less than 2 months later. It was an incredible time in our lives and those recordings really do capture the energy and momentum of what we were creating. But three decades later, after our ears and minds have evolved along with technology, it became evident at some point that all the music we released could be made to sound much better. Thanks to Matt's foresight and diligence, obtaining the original masters wasn't difficult. We handed them over to Pete Lyman, a giant in the mastering world, and our old chum from Boulder, present at the first and last Angel Hair shows and many in between. Pete remixed the tracks from our 12" and most of the EP's from the ground up, and the difference is huge. These songs have never sounded so intense and everyone in the band is very well represented.”Purchase the album here: threeoneg.com/archive/vinyl/insect-immortality-lp
Nonexistent Night One Year threeonegrecords 2024-01-09 | Nonexistent Night "One Year" from In the Middle of a Boiling Sea LPAvailable here: threeoneg.com/archive/vinyl/in-the-middle-of-a-boiling-sea-lpCarrie Feller (who creates gloom-synth earworms under the moniker Hexa), Sal Gallegos and John Rieder (of the instrumental noise-rock duo Secret Fun Club) first began working together in mid-2019.

Cult & Culture Podcast Episode 34 feat. D-Styles of Invisibl Skratch Piklz threeonegrecords 2023-12-14 | This episode is a conversation with producer, DJ, and turntablist D-Styles (Invisibl Skratch Piklz, Beat Junkies, Third Sight) They talk about the connection between death metal and turntablism, Mix Master Mike and the Beastie Boys, creating grimy beats from 50 cent records, and letting music do the talking over expensive gear. They also cover the Beat Junkie Institute of Sound, which is a DJ school in the Los Angeles area open to people of all ages started by D-Styles and the Beat Junkies. Finally, they discuss how innovators pull from different worlds, grabbing from what's around them to create something new, and the hunger that comes from artists who start out with broken homes and broken gear.The concept of Cult and Culture began as a short segment created by Justin Pearson, an internationally known musician, record label owner (Three One G Records), author, and actor. He is perhaps best known as bassist for bands such as Dead Cross, The Locust, and Some Girls as well as vocalist for Deaf Club, Swing Kids, and Planet B. Having traveled the world touring in hardcore and punk bands since age 15, Justin has come to know and work with a broad spectrum of captivating personalities and brilliant minds, many of which are key figures in the realm of popular culture and cult followings alike-- from being on the soundtrack to John Waters’ Cecil B. Demented, to acting in an Asia Argento’s Incompresa, to playing in Dead Cross with Mike Patton and Dave Lombardo. Cult and Culture arose as an opportunity to document bits and pieces of the DIY-driven, subversive world of art Pearson identifies with- one that many are not aware of or perhaps have misconceptions about.Eventually, Pearson joined up with producer and bandmate Luke Henshaw (Sonido De La Frontera, Planet B, Satanic Planet, First Power Crew) to build the idea into a proper podcast, now recorded at his own PengOne Studios in San Diego. Henshaw has collaborated with hip hop legends such as Invisible Skratch Piklz’ D-Styles and Q-Bert, Kool Keith, in addition to being immersed in the world of Cumbia alongside Sonido De La Frontera bandmate Karlos Paez (B Side Players). He also recently scored the music for upcoming documentary Sk8face, which tells the history of skateboard graphics. In this way, both Justin and Luke are influenced by a diverse array of subcultures that all have connected roots. John Waters was one of the first people interviewed for the podcast- an icon of both cult and culture. Since then, guests have included a broad scope of musicians, producers, authors, and anyone passionate about what they do-- anyone from Grammy-winning musician Juan Alderete (Mars Volta, Racer X, creator of Pedals And Effects) to actor Michael Malarkey (Vampire Diaries, Project Bluebook), from San Diego Black Panther Party members to longtime partners Nicola and Adam in electro-punk band ADULT. or The Satanic Temple cofounder Lucien Greaves (who would go on to form Satanic Planet with Luke and Justin as a direct result of their podcast conversation). The focus is not intended to be solely on people in any one realm, and because guests are friends and family, the conversations are frank, informal yet well-informed, and genuine. Pearson and Henshaw seek to achieve a casual openness, blurring lines between traditional guest and host.

Netherlands D.T.A. [Official music video] threeonegrecords 2023-12-14 | Netherlands "D.T.A." from the album Kali Corvette available here:threeoneg.com/archive/vinyl/kali-corvette-lp"As a young person I only had a latent/ vague sense of possibly how rotten our country’s history had been… But it was 9/11 that more or less dramatically accelerated my desire to try to develop a rigorous historical understanding of US foreign policy and the grotesque legacy of colonialism and US imperialism. But for whatever reason…over the years I haven’t ended up regularly writing songs directly about this stuff… I guess I didn’t wanna sound too bitter/ strident, etc.- however, during the Trump presidency my rage and despair about the complete catastrophe of US politics started unavoidably bubbling its way to the surface…and in late 2020 I wrote this song, as a means of downloading my disgust at our out of control imperial hubris and exceptionalism. The current Israel/ Palestine mega-catastrophe compelled me to spontaneously put together a sort of “found footage /conceptual lyric video” for the song, which, sadly, the message of the song, (IMO) couldn’t be more applicable/ timely than in this horrific moment of US sponsored genocide- even though the message of this song is pretty “on the nose” (lol) I feel like there is a fair amount (important!) nuance, compassion, humor and humanity, if, um, you listen closely. haha! HO-KAY." - Timo EllisVideo edited by Chris Carlone and Timo Ellis.Lead singer, multi-instrumentalist, compulsive creator, and unrepentant volume addict Timo Ellis (Yoko Ono, Cibo Matto, Sean Lennon, Joan As Police Woman, Spacehog) formed NETHERLANDS in 2010 in NYC. The band has since shared stages with Napalm Death, Melt Banana, Mutoid Man, Yob, Retox, Black Flag, Eyehategod, Flipper, Martin Rev, The Death Set, Moon Tooth, and Witch Mountain, among many others. Now with drummer David Keith (Rainbow), the band continues to reject restraint in favor of maximum impact: shredding chops, soaring vocals, and maddening hooks. Netherlands crushes decades' worth of bombast into psychotropic nuggets of evil sludge-rock bliss, with nods to the dirtbag rituals of 70’s acid rock and punk, the grandeur of 80’s arena rock, and the guttural intensity of 00’s posthardcore. KALI CORVETTE is Netherlands’ 6th full LP, and features all the hallmarks of Ellis’ work; blistering guitar heroics, primal drumming, and searing caterwauls. However KALI CORVETTE veers bracingly into the realm of electro-noise-punk, ratcheting up the intensity into a uniquely weaponized form of rock that reaches towards high art. The record features guest performances by Gibby Haynes (Butthole Surfers), Michael Kubacki (Car Bomb), Tim Dahl (Lydia Lunch Retrovirus, Child Abuse), Daisy Press (Steve Reich) and Suzanne Von Aichinger (The Suzannes.) KALI CORVETTE is another chapter in the book of a band that’s consistently released heavy music on its own terms and with its own undeniable personality. There’s a reason contemporary heavy luminaries like Joe Duplantier of Gojira and Bill Kelliher of Mastodon count themselves amongst Netherlands’ biggest fans, and KALI COREVETTE’s 7 tracks effortlessly demonstrate NETHrock’s potency once again.
Planet B Dick On The Dance Floor [Official music video] threeonegrecords 2023-12-07 | Planet B "Dick On The Dance Floor" from the album Fiction Prediction available here: threeoneg.com/archive/vinyl/fiction-predictionPlanet B’s second LP has been a long time in the making. Obviously, over this span of time, there has been an almost unimaginable amount of surreality and insanity to pull from when creating the band’s unique hip-hop-punk-meets-sci-fi-horror-movie sonic aesthetic. As always, the sound is as confrontational as it is catchy, the lyrics scathing and the beats bizarre. Earworms abound. As with the band’s first release, there are a host of guest collaborations on the various tracks, from Josie Cotton to David Scott Stone (ex-LCD Soundsystem, Melvins), D-Styles (Invisibl Skratch Piklz), and more. Perhaps most personally meaningful are the instrumental contributions from Gabe Serbian (The Locust) and Eric Livingston (Mamaleek), both family to the band, who have each passed on from this dimension and back to whatever radical planet they came from since the creation of the album.Video featuring Valeria Catalina, filmed by Becky DiGiglio, and edited by Displaced/ Replaced.
Cult & Culture Podcast Episode 33 feat. Bobby Bray of The Locust, Holy Molar, and INUS threeonegrecords 2023-11-21 | In Episode 33, Justin and Luke talk with Bobby Bray of The Locust, Holy Molar, and INUS. Bobby is a guitarist, a sound technician, and teacher. The three start the conversation with the formation of The Locust, Bobby's trajectory branching out from death metal as a teenager, and the eventual goal of being a “brutal Residents”/“brutal DEVO." They dive into the business side of music, the legal aspects of streaming, the intersectionality and evolution of technology and music, the invention of the term “pedal tone for guitar,” and Bobby’s experience for a decade teaching classes like experimental sound, live sound, business, and recording arts. Finally, Bobby shares his new hobby/passion of cycling with a crew of noise musicians, and some of the trips they’ve recently taken.The concept of Cult and Culture began as a short segment created by Justin Pearson, an internationally known musician, record label owner (Three One G Records), author, and actor.

Cult & Culture Podcast Episode 32 feat. Chris Slorach of METZ threeonegrecords 2023-10-27 | This episode is a conversation between bassists with Chis Slorach (Metz, The Armed). The discussion touches on topics like how Metz has operated over the years, favorite drummers and the importance of them to a band, the jazziness of Nomeansno, and how being booed sometimes is more memorable than the positive highlights.

Cult & Culture Podcast Episode 31 feat. Jose Palafox of Swing Kids threeonegrecords 2023-10-05 | In this episode of Cult and Culture, JP and Luke interview another JP, one of Justin's oldest and best friends, Jose Palafox. Jose is a drummer who has been in bands such as Struggle and Swing Kids with Justin, has been a college professor, and now works as a social worker in drug rehabilitation in the Bay Area. This episode focuses heavily on mental health, with discussion of suicide. The conversation is a heartfelt one that touches on concepts like what it means to be "punk"-- to avoid the nihilistic side of it and embrace empathy, to focus more on your actions than your words or your aesthetic. Jose speaks from a place of personal experience, as someone who has dealt with addiction and suicidal ideation, and has now been sober for thirteen years.The concept of Cult and Culture began as a short segment created by Justin Pearson, an internationally known musician, record label owner (Three One G Records), author, and actor.

Cult & Culture Podcast Episode 30 feat.

Tad recounts his beginnings in music in school, playing percussion with power and theatricality in a way that influenced his “caveman” approach to drumming in his band. He also notes the perhaps seemingly unlikely impact on him of genres like prog and funk, as well as his connection to punk over metal. Crossed Out’s formation and subsequent time before calling it quits, as well as its legacy and importance to others is discussed, with the caveat that you can never count out the possibility of their eventual terrifying return.The concept of Cult and Culture began as a short segment created by Justin Pearson, an internationally known musician, record label owner (Three One G Records), author, and actor.

The two discuss their start in music, from learning it in a more classical sense and going to school for it, dropping out, and transitioning to the drum-bass DIY noise duo they have become. They talk telepathy, parlor tricks, and future collaborations wherein they will join forces with a second pair of twins to create a new musical project. They also share some of their influence, their approach to performance, and their uncanny ability to Jedi-Mind-Trick cops into allowing them to play on abandoned bridges next to Zoos directly over highways. The concept of Cult and Culture began as a short segment created by Justin Pearson, an internationally known musician, record label owner (Three One G Records), author, and actor. He is perhaps best known as bassist for bands such as Dead Cross, The Locust, and Some Girls as well as vocalist for Deaf Club, Swing Kids, and Planet B. Having traveled the world touring in hardcore and punk bands since age 15, Justin has come to know and work with a broad spectrum of captivating personalities and brilliant minds, many of which are key figures in the realm of popular culture and cult followings alike-- from being on the soundtrack to John Waters’ Cecil B. Demented, to acting in an Asia Argento’s Incompresa, to playing in Dead Cross with Mike Patton and Dave Lombardo. Cult and Culture arose as an opportunity to document bits and pieces of the DIY-driven, subversive world of art Pearson identifies with- one that many are not aware of or perhaps have misconceptions about.Eventually, Pearson joined up with producer and bandmate Luke Henshaw (Sonido De La Frontera, Planet B, Satanic Planet, First Power Crew) to build the idea into a proper podcast, now recorded at his own PengOne Studios in San Diego. Henshaw has collaborated with hip hop legends such as Invisible Skratch Piklz’ D-Styles and Q-Bert, Kool Keith, in addition to being immersed in the world of Cumbia alongside Sonido De La Frontera bandmate Karlos Paez (B Side Players). He also recently scored the music for upcoming documentary Sk8face, which tells the history of skateboard graphics. In this way, both Justin and Luke are influenced by a diverse array of subcultures that all have connected roots. John Waters was one of the first people interviewed for the podcast- an icon of both cult and culture. Since then, guests have included a broad scope of musicians, producers, authors, and anyone passionate about what they do-- anyone from Grammy-winning musician Juan Alderete (Mars Volta, Racer X, creator of Pedals And Effects) to actor Michael Malarkey (Vampire Diaries, Project Bluebook), from San Diego Black Panther Party members to longtime partners Nicola and Adam in electro-punk band ADULT. or The Satanic Temple cofounder Lucien Greaves (who would go on to form Satanic Planet with Luke and Justin as a direct result of their podcast conversation). The focus is not intended to be solely on people in any one realm, and because guests are friends and family, the conversations are frank, informal yet well-informed, and genuine. Pearson and Henshaw seek to achieve a casual openness, blurring lines between traditional guest and host.

Cult & Culture Podcast Episode 28 feat. John Reis of Drive Like Jehu, Hot Snakes threeonegrecords 2023-08-18 | On this episode of Cult and Culture, Luke and Justin speak with prolific San Diego musician John Reis of Pitchfork, Drive Like Jehu, Hot Snakes, Rocket from the Crypt, Plosivs and more. They discuss the idea of speaking through an instrument, trying to play every show with the goal of making it feel like the only place in the world someone would want to be, experiencing the chaos of a live GG Allin show, playing with both Fugazi and Danzig in short succession, and the formation of some of Reis's iconic bands. Reeling from the recent loss of long time best friend and musical collaborator Rick Froberg, John also talks about loss, legacy, and the final music the two made together in Hot Snakes.The concept of Cult and Culture began as a short segment created by Justin Pearson, an internationally known musician, record label owner (Three One G Records), author, and actor.

Julie Robbins and Jamie Stillman of EarthQuaker Devices, dives into the history of one of the most highly regarded pedal companies among musicians right now. Julie and Jamie share their approaches to running a business placing DIY ethics above all else, the importance of valuing their employees/team over profit, and often draw comparisons in their day to day operations to being in a band or functioning as a touring musician. Continuing to be at the forefront of innovative ideas and always embracing their products being used in unconventional ways (for example, in a symphony), this episode discusses the struggles and successes of the business, and always returns to the central idea of building community.The concept of Cult and Culture began as a short segment created by Justin Pearson, an internationally known musician, record label owner (Three One G Records), author, and actor.

Venamoris So Good [Official music video] threeonegrecords 2023-07-31 | Venamoris "So Good" from the album Drown in Emotion LP Available from Three One G: threeoneg.com/archive/vinyl/drown-in-emotionVideo by Dennis Bersales: instagram.com/ashotfortheroadVenamoris was founded in 2021 by what can only be called astral influence. Married couple Paula and Dave (Slayer, Fantômas, Testament, Mr. Bungle, Misfits, Dead Cross) Lombardo formed Venamoris as a result of some persistent persuasion on the latter’s part. Dave, who is in charge of drums and production on the record, explains: “Several months after meeting Paula in 2010, she hesitantly shared with me her past decade-long career as the lead back up singer for Wayne Newton. She later played me some of the demos she recorded throughout the years and I was floored by her sonically soothing, rich tone and natural, instinctive ability to harmonize. I was determined to persuade her to return to her creative self. It’s been a deeply gratifying journey witnessing this music come to life.” Canadian born singer/songwriter Paula Lombardo, who performs vocals and piano for this project, bursts with vulnerability and intimacy, addressing a broad scope of emotion: anger, healing, pain, hope. It’s evident that Venamoris was founded out of love, passion, communication, respect, and trust. One person thriving in music encouraged the other, who had abandoned music to find their way back. It is the result of many late nights with too much wine, and even more truth laid bare: an aural couple's journaling generously shared with the world. Drown In Emotion was recorded and produced at Ritmo Studio by Dave Lombardo. Drum Overdubs recorded at Studio 606. Mixed at Ritmo Studio by David A. Lombardo. Mastered by John Golden at Golden Mastering. Features guest appearances from Tyler Bates (Jerry Cantrell, Manson), Ra Diaz (Korn, Suicidal Tendencies), Jack Gibson (Exodus), George Pajon (Black Eyed Peas, Cairo Knife Fight), and Tim Stewart (Lady GaGa, Damnage).
The Locust: Live at London Forum 2004 threeonegrecords 2023-06-16 | The Locust: Live at London Forum 2004This was the first of two nights in support of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs at the London forum. The second night was way more brutal as far as retaliation from the audience and the violent energy in the air. For this performance, you can notice the umbrella on the stage next to Gabe's kit, which covered his sampler. This was to cover it from the pints of beer and garbage that was thrown at us during the set. The following night, the band has purchased a handful more umbrellas to cover pedal boards, synths, etc. The booing from the audience isn't as impressive on video here as compared to how it was in person. To achieve that much distain is a win for a band like The Locust.
Satanic Planet to Perform in State Capitol Buildings which Hosted Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht threeonegrecords 2023-06-15 | Satanic Avant Industrial Rock Act ‘Satanic Planet’ Seeks to Perform in State Capitol Buildings that have Hosted Christian Nationalist Performer Sean FeuchtIn response to Christian Nationalist musician Sean Feucht’s ongoing "Let Us Worship" concert tour, which has already found the musician playing within the Capitol buildings of several states, the experimental avant industrial band “Satanic Planet” has vowed to play the same public venues that have accommodated Feucht. According to Satanic Planet frontperson Lucien Greaves, “Feucht is openly a theocrat who courts the attention of politicians and seeks to proselytize through his performances. He has his opinions, and we have ours, but one thing the government can not do is preference his viewpoint over ours by giving him exclusive access to perform a concert on the Capitol grounds. That stage is every bit as much ours as it is his, so, in the name of pluralism and religious liberty, there are some state capitols that are likely soon to be hosting Satanic Planet shows.”According to law, the government must remain neutral regarding religious viewpoints when granting permission to parties seeking to take advantage of public accommodations. For this reason, the fact that public representatives have allowed Feucht to perform openly Christian Nationalist events within state capitol buildings, leaves little in the way of a legal rationale whereby Satanic Planet might be denied. Satanic Planet is a super-group which includes Luke Henshaw (Planet B, Sonido de la Frontera), Justin Pearson (The Locust, Dead Cross, Swing Kids, Deaf Club) and Lucien Greaves (The Satanic Temple co-founder and spokesperson), and other collaborators. Their first album debuted in 2021 with the single “Baphomet,” and their ceremonial live shows have attracted Satanists nationwide, incorporating “unbaptisms” into their performances. Their last performance, which took place in Cambridge, MA this past April, drew protesters.The band is hoping to raise the funds to perform at the state capitols that Feucht has played through a crowdfunding campaign. According to Greaves, “We will not be able to sell tickets to the capitol grounds, we will surely draw protests, the stage and sound will likely be difficult, and the cost will not be insignificant. That said, however, we can not stand by idly as theocratic extremists are given such an elevated public platform to spread their divisive message without reminding everybody that that stage is equally theirs as well. Feucht seeks to use the stage to announce a theocratic stranglehold over the United States government, and we seek to rectify that by re-establishing pluralism.” If Satanic Planet’s request to perform is denied, the fundraiser will be put towards the legal battle that will follow.Satanic Planet has already submitted a request to perform at the Indiana State Capitol on August 12th of 2023.

Microwaves Regular Magic [Official music video] threeonegrecords 2023-05-02 | Microwaves "Regular Magic" from the album Discomfiture AtlasPurchase here: threeoneg.com/archive/vinyl/discomfiture-atlas-lpVideo by Lori FelkerGuitar / Vocals: David KuzyBass / Vocals: Adam MacGregorDrums: John RomanOf innumerable bands that traffic in dissonance, the musick of Pittsburgh, PA’s Microwaves shears clean and hot as an oxy-lance through the defenses of even the most cynical noise rock aficionado. In this iteration of the band, which has been in existence now for 20 years, core members John Roman (drums, vocals) and David Kuzy (guitar, vocals) round themselves out with 2006 alum bassist/vocalist Adam MacGregor on one side (“Pyroclast”), and founding bassist/vocalist Steve Moore (Film composer and member of Zombi, Lovelock, Miracle, and more) on the other (“Plasma”). Over the years, Microwaves continues to pick up the loose ends left by Voivod, MX-80, Snakefinger, and some of their own Pittsburgh-area “math-rock” contemporaries, twisting them into a Gordian knot that at once rages and confounds.Microwaves’ newest LP, Discomfiture Atlas, features guest appearances by Eric Paul (Arab on Radar, Doomsday Student, Psychic Graveyard), Sarah Quintero (Spotlights), Rebecca Burchette (Exosus), and Todd Rittman (Dead Rider). Discomfiture Atlas will be available through Three One G Records on limited edition of 200 color vinyl, 300 black vinyl, and 50 cassettes, as well as digitally.Who among us doesn’t long for a “do-over” of our wreck of recent history? Maybe it’s that attitude that accounts for the ascendancy of multiverses, parallel dimensions, the “Berenstain/Berenstein” debate, etc., in public imagination. Whatever the reason, contemplating other planes of existence is no longer exclusive to the hard sci-fi wonk set. Apropos of all the above, Microwaves manifests their own twin realities over the two sides of Discomfiture Atlas, its second album on San Diego’s vaunted Three One G records. Though distinct, both sides of the album, “Pyrocast” and “Plasma,” salt the band’s terse alloy of thrash metal, no-wave, brutal prog, noise-rock, and math rock with a hint of pop brevity, if not the melody to match.Even at a curmudgeonly 20 years of age, (both versions of) Microwaves lean into the new material with the desperate enthusiasm of a 50-something peeling out in a midlife-crisis Corvette. Roman delivers his usual cyborg clatter, careening through odd meters and deconstructing rock drumming according to plans laid out by Beefheart and Devo. MacGregor complements with tortuous lines that invoke eastern melodic ideas at times, though they seethe with distortion and gurgle queasily through analog filtering. His vocal palette has widened to include an unhinged/unschooled falsetto and a Teutonic metal shriek, used to great effect on “Hammerspace” alongside Kuzy’s wavering, town-crier bark. Kuzy executes his trademark spindly atonalities with a draftsman’s precision, alternately ratcheting through all of the first-wave thrash-metal riffs he probably ever wanted to hear. Moore’s performances on side “Plasma” present a tighter and more reeled-in quality, focused on timbre and monolithic repetition over the flash of the past. In an all-time first for Microwaves, the standout “Your Dumb Guts” finds Moore serving up a vocal melody with stunning earworm potential.
Squid Pisser Fuck Your Preacher [Official Video] threeonegrecords 2023-04-26 | SQUID PISSER"Fuck Your Preacher" (Featuring Saint Anthony of Cancer Christ)From the album "My Tadpole Legion" on Three One G and Sweatband Records. Purchase here: threeoneg.com/archive/vinyl/my-tadpole-legion"Fuck Your Preacher" pulls focus toward pedophile preachers and the perverted power of putrid patriarchies across this pitiful globe. Turning the tables on the traditional church with a disgusting and vomit inducing vocal onslaught of venom and violence is SAINT ANTHONY (of the god-fearing serpantine-metal act CANCER CHRIST). The merging of SQUID PISSER and CANCER CHRIST is a natural one as the primary songwriter and guitarist of both bands is Tommy Meehan (also of: DEAF CLUB and SWEATBAND RECORDS)... "FUCK YOUR PREACHER" is the holy union of cephalopod daddies and snake boys that the world didn't know it needed.Lyrically, Saint Anthony spews his own life story of losing his mother at an early age, being forced to live in an orphanage, and violently exacting revenge on his preacher. All under 30 seconds...The track is a fresh take on Anti Chris and The Raped's "Fuk Ur Sister" which originally released to a small handful of kids in the Bay Area music scene over 20 years ago. (Anti Chris and The Raped was a local band from Tommy's hometown of Petaluma California.)"I remember seeing this band called Anti Chris and The Raped play at The Phoenix Theater, in 2002. I was 16 at the time. The singer cut himself on stage and was just spouting off all of the most offensive shit he could think of. His voice really reminds me of Doc Dart of The Crucifucks. I fucking love that whiney / disgusted with society ranting. "Anti Chris" was gushing blood all over the stage and the performance really spoke to me. The music was out of time and out of tune. It was just awful sounding and I loved it. The band lived mostly in my subconscious for the next 20 years and I was always bummed that they never went on to do anything else, but I was so grateful I got to witness that performance. The show I saw them at was actually their break up show... You can find some of their stuff on YouTube (and somebody recently put audio from that show up on iTunes and Spotify). I would occasionally revisit them over the years and always thought it would be fun to cover this song. When Seth and I were getting ready to record "MY TADPOLE LEGION", I suggested it as a cover and we just went in and banged it out." - Tommy MeehanShot and Directed by: Mike Manasewitsch ( @blockbustervideo.org)Edited by: Displaced/ReplacedRecorded by: Tommy Meehan at Dolphin Fucker Studiosand Cameron Acosta at Seahorse SoundsMixed by: Kurt Ballou at GodcityMastered by: Alan Douches at West West Side Mastering

Slamming down dolphin corpses at breakneck speeds, the duo, which is comprised of Tommy Meehan on guitar (Deaf Club, Cancer Christ, Sweatband Records, Cartoon Network) and Seth Carolina (Starcrawler), have constructed a fresh and mucousy new alien craft powered by tightly controlled noise-guitar, savage primal drum work, and gooped up vocal deliveries that might sound like a gaggle of frogs thrown into a garbage disposal (although the Squid boys wouldn't recommend doing this).Conceptualized and formed in 2022, the band decided to fully utilize planet Earth's viral slumber in order to gestate, write, and record 2 full length albums worth of material. Throughout the year, SQUID PISSER played a handful of shows in California and Nevada as a 2 piece as they continued the quest for further personnel and collaborators. Tommy Meehan's tightly controlled noise-onslaught of rainbow vomit (spat out of a guitar amp via manic pedalboard wizardry and sophisticated finger work) paired with the utterly brutal, breakneck, and savage drumming of Seth Carolina, merge to create a collection of tracks that have been forged in a totally fucked and sonically chaotic storm of pus and goo. Their debut release, MY TADPOLE LEGION, is a mutated smorgasbord of songs and guest vocalists from projects like: MELT BANANA, NEKROGOBLIKON, CANCER CHRIST, PUNCH, THE LOCUST, WACKO, and more. Also featured prominently is John Clardy of TERA MELOS on drums for 3 of the songs. My Tadpole Legion was mixed by Kurt Ballou (CONVERGE, GODCITY STUDIOS) and mastered by Alan Douches (West West Side Music).

Now with drummer David Keith (Rainbow), the band continues to reject restraint in favor of maximum impact: shredding chops, soaring vocals, and maddening hooks. Netherlands crushes decades’ worth of bombast into psychotropic nuggets of evil sludge-rock bliss, with nods to the dirtbag rituals of 70’s acid rock and punk, the grandeur of 80’s arena rock, and the guttural intensity of 00’s posthardcore.

He is perhaps best known as bassist for bands such as Dead Cross, The Locust, and Some Girls as well as vocalist for Deaf Club, Swing Kids, and Planet B. Having traveled the world touring in hardcore and punk bands since age 15, Justin has come to know and work with a broad spectrum of captivating personalities and brilliant minds, many of which are key figures in the realm of popular culture and cult followings alike-- from being on the soundtrack to John Waters’ Cecil B. Demented, to acting in an Asia Argento’s Incompresa, to playing in Dead Cross with Mike Patton and Dave Lombardo. Cult and Culture arose as an opportunity to document bits and pieces of the DIY-driven, subversive world of art Pearson identifies with- one that many are not aware of or perhaps have misconceptions about.Eventually, Pearson joined up with producer and bandmate Luke Henshaw (Sonido De La Frontera, Planet B, Satanic Planet, First Power Crew) to build the idea into a proper podcast, now recorded at his own PengOne Studios in San Diego. Henshaw has collaborated with hip hop legends such as Invisible Skratch Piklz’ D-Styles and Q-Bert, Kool Keith, in addition to being immersed in the world of Cumbia alongside Sonido De La Frontera bandmate Karlos Paez (B Side Players). He also recently scored the music for upcoming documentary Sk8face, which tells the history of skateboard graphics. In this way, both Justin and Luke are influenced by a diverse array of subcultures that all have connected roots. John Waters was one of the first people interviewed for the podcast- an icon of both cult and culture. Since then, guests have included a broad scope of musicians, producers, authors, and anyone passionate about what they do-- anyone from Grammy-winning musician Juan Alderete (Mars Volta, Racer X, creator of Pedals And Effects) to actor Michael Malarkey (Vampire Diaries, Project Bluebook), from San Diego Black Panther Party members to longtime partners Nicola and Adam in electro-punk band ADULT. or The Satanic Temple cofounder Lucien Greaves (who would go on to form Satanic Planet with Luke and Justin as a direct result of their podcast conversation). The focus is not intended to be solely on people in any one realm, and because guests are friends and family, the conversations are frank, informal yet well-informed, and genuine. Pearson and Henshaw seek to achieve a casual openness, blurring lines between traditional guest and host.

Having traveled the world touring in hardcore and punk bands since age 15, Justin has come to know and work with a broad spectrum of captivating personalities and brilliant minds, many of which are key figures in the realm of popular culture and cult followings alike-- from being on the soundtrack to John Waters’ Cecil B. Demented, to acting in an Asia Argento’s Incompresa, to playing in Dead Cross with Mike Patton and Dave Lombardo. Cult and Culture arose as an opportunity to document bits and pieces of the DIY-driven, subversive world of art Pearson identifies with- one that many are not aware of or perhaps have misconceptions about.Eventually, Pearson joined up with producer and bandmate Luke Henshaw (Sonido De La Frontera, Planet B, Satanic Planet, First Power Crew) to build the idea into a proper podcast, now recorded at his own PengOne Studios in San Diego. Henshaw has collaborated with hip hop legends such as Invisible Skratch Piklz’ D-Styles and Q-Bert, Kool Keith, in addition to being immersed in the world of Cumbia alongside Sonido De La Frontera bandmate Karlos Paez (B Side Players). He also recently scored the music for upcoming documentary Sk8face, which tells the history of skateboard graphics. In this way, both Justin and Luke are influenced by a diverse array of subcultures that all have connected roots. John Waters was one of the first people interviewed for the podcast- an icon of both cult and culture. Since then, guests have included a broad scope of musicians, producers, authors, and anyone passionate about what they do-- anyone from Grammy-winning musician Juan Alderete (Mars Volta, Racer X, creator of Pedals And Effects) to actor Michael Malarkey (Vampire Diaries, Project Bluebook), from San Diego Black Panther Party members to longtime partners Nicola and Adam in electro-punk band ADULT. or The Satanic Temple cofounder Lucien Greaves (who would go on to form Satanic Planet with Luke and Justin as a direct result of their podcast conversation). The focus is not intended to be solely on people in any one realm, and because guests are friends and family, the conversations are frank, informal yet well-informed, and genuine. Pearson and Henshaw seek to achieve a casual openness, blurring lines between traditional guest and host.
