Tehran <-> Washington, DC 1970-1973 teen girl blog
Back in 1970, Hilary and Kathy were 14 years old and best friends in Washington, DC. Then Kathy moved to Tehran. They wrote to each other pretty often--and kept the letters--for your pleasure as a proto-blog from the 70s. The letters start here.

Commercial Break: New Urinals CD--and Release Party!

New Urinals CD: "What Is Real and What Is Not" release 28 October on Warning Label Records

Their songs have been covered by Yo La Tengo, The Minutemen, Butthole Surfers, Gun Club, Leaving Trains, Eleventh Dream Day, Halo of Flies, and The Dishes. Now Warning Label Records releases WHAT IS REAL AND WHAT IS NOT, the first album of all new material in over 15 years from one of the bands that helped build L.A.’s highly influential punk scene.

"The Urinals deliver cool musicality with critical intelligence. And they thrash on a high level."—Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth

"The Urinals had a profound effect on us Minutemen and inspired us much. This stuff both ignites my pilot light and blasts my boiler."—Mike Watt

"Twenty-three years after the last of their mindbending 7" trilogy, the Urinals finally get around to releasing their debut album, and not a minute too soon."—Ira Kaplan of Yo La Tengo

"The Urinals found an unlikely middle ground between PiL and Brian Wilson."—Steve Hochman, L.A. Times

Order the CD from Amazon.
