Antlered Aunt Lord at Austin Town Hall
I’ve spent the last month listening to Antlered Aunt Lord and his new record Ostensibly Formerly Stunted (and on fire). While I already love many of the songs, it was the album that really burrowed into my soul. On one hand it has the oddity and the brevity of early Elf Power, but on the… Continue reading Antlered Aunt Lord at Austin Town Hall
Try the Pie at Three Imaginary Girls
I’m a sucker for lo-fi confessionals. Having someone more eloquent than myself detailing my ownself-conscious inner dialogs comforts me and cushions my own nervous conclusions and assumptions. The new Try the Pie album, Rest, hits all those chords of hopes and fears and longing and lust.Imagine the minimalist beauty of early Kim Deal demos after… Continue reading Try the Pie at Three Imaginary Girls

Try the Pie at Innocent Words

Remember this Tunabunny review from 2014? If not, take a quick scan then come back (we’ll wait for you). Intrigued? Well, yes, so were we when offered this latest single from that band’s enigmatic, prolific, uncontainable mad genius of a drummer Antlered Aunt Lord (his mother named him ‘Jesse’) – and cohorts – from his/their… Continue reading Antlered Aunt Lord at Stereo Embers
Noon:30 at Raised by Gypsies
If you’ve never said “Noon:30” before then you probably have never talked to me in real life. Yes, I like to say that because it’s not just funny but it sort of just works, you know? And a lot of what I like about that idea of time is also what I like… Continue reading Noon:30 at Raised by Gypsies

Antlered Aunt Lord at Collapse Board
Antlered Auntlord. Antlord Aunt Lard, Aunt Lured Antlered. With every encounter, you faced a different creature. The first time I met some Antlords in Athens, they were a trio, and they set up right in front of us, no need for a stage – Brent with the heavy metal drum face, Ted the really tall… Continue reading Antlered Aunt Lord at Collapse Board
