Live for Five

Adam The recent revival of noise rock has still failed to produce something as pulsating and painfully jarring as the pair of Johnboy records. The delirium induced by this band's noise is only enhanced in a live setting, thus this lost soundboard recording is essential listening of the purposefully uneasy variety. Favorite track: New Jersey Road Base.

about

Never released rare live recording from the Gargoyle in Warren, Ohio on March 12, 1994. Fresh off recording their second studio album with Steve Albini, johnboy played their hearts out to at least five people in Warren, Ohio. The ferocity of this recording makes the studio albums sound placid by comparison.

Barry Stone remembers it as one of the most fun shows on the tour. The Gargoyle also doubled as an old-time soda fountain or was it a coffee shop? Or did we just visit one that day? An intense game of checkers was played there for sure.

Proceeds go to Move Texas, which works to encourage young people to vote in Texas.
