Alice Donut - new album out, video & a Brooklyn show
Alice Donut, a New York post-punk band that was founded in 1986, just put out their 10th album, Ten Glorious Animals, in September on Alternative Tentacles.
Alice Donut's lyrics take on what they view as the perversities, odd details, and petty humiliations of life. Their lyrical subject matter focuses on topics including depravity, domestic violence, sexuality, and eggs. Add in a trombone-based version of the Pixies "Where Is My Mind" and you've got a brand new Alice Donut classic!They'll play a show at Brooklyn's Southpaw on Thursday, November 5th with Retada and Free Electric State. Tickets are still on sale. It's one of two upcoming dates for the band. Both of them with their video for the song "Esophagus," off the new album, is posted below...LP is on 180 Gram & limited to 1,000 copies! [AT]

saw them at knitting factory maybe 3 years ago now.. surprisingly they were still very good. i always felt if things had been just a little different this band would have been on Mtv and the smashing pumpkins would be playing southpaw.

"this band would have been on Mtv and the smashing pumpkins would be playing southpaw."
nah... they were always too rough and weird (in a great way) for mainstream success. i join the sentiment though.

I saw them in Canada in 1992 and they were fantastic not to mention loud. Nobody writes lyrics as intelligent as Alice Donut has done over the years.
