No story, but I will take this time to vent a little.  The Brooklyn Social Security Administration office is the worst run office I have ever seen.  Whoever came up with queueing system is a fucking idiot and should not be allowed to participate in normal society any longer. 

 

Abe Vigoda is CA based no wave, surf punk, pop, BLAHHHHH band from the Smell scene (No Age, HEALTH).  They remind me a bit of what Times New Viking might sound like if their production wasn’t so shitty.  But there is still plenty of lo-fi grit on these tracks.  The Smell scene gets its name from a dingy club in downtown LA with no liquor license or concessions of any kind, basically just a place to see live bands.  Maybe not one of the more accessible groups to come out of that scene, but with a recent 8.3 rating on pitchfork they may be poised to become one of the most successful.
