We are barely getting used to these rather unusual cold days in Los Angeles and on a Sunday staying in is quite appealing. However, on this occasion, heading over to the Moroccan Lounge to check out Vikesh Kapoor was the best decision. Kapoor’s discography is not extensive yet, but his songs are profound and engrave […]

To celebrate their electrifying new record on Friday, Flat Worms hosted a rip-roaring show at Zebulon with support from Kaz Mirblouk and Automatic. For the entirety of the show, audience members were shoulder-to-shoulder with one another – allowing for some serious bouncing. Produced by Ty Segall, Flat Worms fractures through listener-comfortability with their frenetic ear-busting […]

The Woggles may not be a household name but they have been an active band for over 30 years and they are not slowing down a bit. The garage rock veterans consist of “The Professor” mighty Manfred on lead vocals, Dan Elextro on drums, Buzz Hagstrom on Bass and Flesh Hammer on guitar. I’m thinking […]

Recently, in the middle of Chinatown, a phoenix rose from the ashes at The Grand Star Jazz Club. It had been 40 years since the world heard Chip Kinman play songs from his legendary punk band The Dils. After the loss of his brother, founding member Tony Kinman (Tony 19), earlier this year and at […]

Last Friday at the Echoplex, concert attendees experienced an electrifying sold-out show with Seattle originals Mudhoney followed by L.A. Punk Legends The Flesh Eaters. The unsurprisingly packed house, filled with fans old and new alike, seemed to carry more of a subdued energy than the bands onstage — however, that didn’t stop a small mosh […]

Atlanta’s Deerhunter stopped by Lodge Room Highland Park Thursday night to celebrate their eighth LP Why Hasn’t Everything Already Disappeared? to be release the following day. The sold out crowd was calm, yet enthusiastic; the maturity fitting of a band that’s been around for 18 years. The merch table was remarkably empty. A hand-written note […]

Warbly Jets kicked off their latest tour at The Echo Friday night. We’ve been watching the guys for  a while and are always impressed by their growth. Grimy Goods interviewed Warbly Jets in 2016, and then we featured them in 2017 in our annual forecast for LA Artists to Watch. Last year, the band made […]

Check out Grimy Goods’ best concert photography of 2018 featuring photos from concerts and music festivals in and around L.A. Our team of photographers captured some epic concert photography in 2018. Their keen eye for energy, light, depth and action truly […]

Thom Yorke has been on a solo U.S. tour for a month and it’s not for the casual Radiohead fan. Last nigh, Yorke performed at the Orpheum Theater LA and his set heavily sunk into his solo work especially from the albums Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes and The Eraser. Also featured are songs off Atoms for Peace, […]

Conner Youngblood moves through time with the stillness of a forest. The quiet, wild-haired musician seems like a visitor to earth imagining what places might be like in a 5th-element-Leeloo-way, Googling an image searching to satisfy his wanderlust. These musings are then interpreted into his music which is layered like the sounds of the wilderness […]
