Medusa (mem. Racebannon) - album out, streaming, free MP3
by Black Bubblegum
DOWNLOAD: Medusa - "Transform" (MP3)
DOWNLOAD: Medusa - "En Raga Sul" (MP3)
Meet Medusa from Bloomington, Indiana. They may not be quite as frightening as the mythical snake-haired devil-woman responsible for turning men into stone, but damn they (tunes) be ugly!
Medusa combines the noise rock asthetic that could only come from 3/4 of Racebannon (or possibly Jesus Lizard), along with an angry pre-Big Business-era Melvins thunder. Medusa's debut record En Raga Sul is out today on Hawthorne Street Records and streaming in it's entirety at punknews. The band also hooked us up with a little gratis action in the form of the very Stoner Witch-y title track, and "Transform", both of which are available for download above.
Racebannon dropped Acid or Blood earlier this year and toured with Light Yourself on Fire. The Jesus Lizard is getting back together.

Bloomington, IN is the bitchenest berg you never been to. It's also the only place in the Midwest where-- during the school year-- a guy can get turned down for dates because he's not Jewish. Jersey license plates ever'where!

What the fuck is post-screamo? You really should know a little more about a band before you try to pigeonhole them into an imaginary genre. Is Melvins post-screamo? Didn't they come before screamo? Would that make them pre-post-screamo?
