All music gets revived: especially blues and 60’s garage of the late. You can hear it in The Black Keys, Jay Reatard, even the back beats in Beck’s new album “Modern Guilt.” With bands like Blue Cheer and The Electric Prunes playing shows once again, many newbies have come into the light fusing the music of the past with their own dirty garage steez of today. Check out Mondo Hollywood, August 9-10 at Crash Mansion LA for some oldies and a whole batch of emerging kick ass bands that will rock your socks off! And yes, it’s taken from the name of the low-budget 1967 documentary “Mondo Hollywood.” I highly recommend checkin’ this flick as it was banned in France as “a danger to mental health.” Peep the trailer below. And don’t forget to go to the show!
