Destruction Unit                                    http://www.facebook.com/pages/DESTRUCTION-UNIT/111553368888795

All it takes is one. One man/woman/human can shatter your world. Destruction Unit is that one. Developed by Ryan Wong in the Arizona desert sometime in the past, the Unit unleashed the “My Disease” recording on Discos Cagados. The out-of-control beat met with electronic keys, a deafening guitar and damaged vocals that wanted you dead. A series of live performances were also carried out. Then, Phoenix met Memphis. Jay of Lost Sounds had shared wounds and scars with Ryan during the rise of the Reatards. Naturally, Jay and Alicja of Lost Sounds latched on to the thud that was breeding in Arizona. Lost Sounds released tastes of things to come with “Do You Wanna Kill Me” and “Let’s Lie” sometime in the present. Fueled by an unknown disease that mutates in the sun, Destruction Unit prepares for more. Ryan (Wongs), Jay Reatard and Alicja (Lost Sounds) will deliver new damage sometime in the future (Jan 2004) on Empty Records. So, stay in the shadows. Go out at night. Destruction Unit is coming. And it wants you dead.

Rock n’ roll from the hot hot desert

 

 

Lenguas Largas             http://www.facebook.com/pages/Lenguas-Largas/223539766616

“A bunch of dirty DIY dudes playing stony, pleasant, intricate music that builds tension then releases. It’s subtle, yet pleasant; thick, swirling, and as fingering as white smoke exhaled deeply from a pipe. I don’t mind weird if it rocks. I don’t mind psychrock if the “rock” part’s not just a handy post-it note whacked onto the side of masturbation. Lenguas Largas has the Roky Erickson Weird-O-Met…er pegged. They’re also carrying a mile-long locomotion’s worth of quarry-grade rock, freshly blasted from the earth.” – T.Taylor,
“Razorcake gloom/psych rock from Arizona. Lo-Fi minimal tracking fill these tunes with a graveyard like spooky haze.”  – Nate, Weekly Tape Deck
“An unholy union of dudes from other great bands” – S. Seigel, Tucson Weekly
“Dreamy Garage-pop from Tucson, AZ. The more I listen to this, the more I like it. Lenguas Largas has created and original, exciting sound” – Maximum Rock & Roll
Employs cold, minimal, post-punk stylistic leanings and tosses them through everything in the kitchen sink.
