> Hiromi totally fucking rocks! (Chick Corea does too, but since he’s an old fart, lots people know his name already.)

I agree! I had never heard of either of them before. I confess, I neglected jazz for many years, pretty much since I was much younger and dabbled with the sax. I’ve been totally entranced with her videos since then, though.

Can’t wait til August! I’m pretty much going for Hiromi and Chick Corea, but I suspect my eyes (and of course ears) will be opened a bit that day. 🆒

‘Hardcore noise terrorists’ is a good description. Not at all to my taste, but my son loves them, so that’s all to the good. He was looking for a new band to follow…

Sweet! Glad **Le Cadet de l’au-delà** liked them!

Another band I found earlier this year with more space in their songs (and more discernible vocals) might strike his fancy too:

[Fake Life](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tw9IUB7cr60) by Whores  
[Daddy’s Money](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1opngrmRKs) by Whores

They’re kind of a cross between **Jesus Lizard** and **Iron Monkey** (but much more heavily the former).

> And dude… I like Snakefarm

I may have asked before when Snakefarm has been mentioned, but have you and Snowboarder Bo heard much Anna Domino? My husband and I became fans in 1987 with her album This Time. It was a thrill to finally meet her many many years later, when she was touring with Snakefarm. We got her [autograph](http://wretchawry.com/gallery/HomePhotos/photos/Home_35.html), but I’m kicking myself that we didn’t bring a video camera or even a regular camera. Here’s a few favorite Anna Domino songs:

[Rhythm](http://youtu.be/kk_irDJQV70)

[“Lake”](http://youtu.be/Zd1K_7KObsE)

[“Land of My Dreams”](http://youtu.be/2fJ76bK_MLY) (here’s a [lip sync](http://youtu.be/10h6FItf4bY) version with not great audio, but you get to see Anna in action)
