2013 Is A Clean Slate for SLC Musicians · 115 days ago

Give us something to write about

Everything We’ve heard as of early 2013 is commercially laced crap by cronies of venue owners and tape-op sages. __________ promised us an album two years ago. What happened? They flaked. ___________ is churning out generic crap, so is every other $invested$ salt lake band. Every DJ with any talent has left the state. Every “new” band that pops up it seems is just the same crap from 2009 with a different name. If you draw a free form spreadsheet with all the musicians performing and recording in 2009, you’ll find the correllation between then and now is pretty astounding. Quite frankly, WERE SICK OF THE SAME CRAP YEAR AFTER YEAR. Give us some new crap!!!! The only three areas in local music showing ANY signs of innovation whatsoever in the last two years

1. One SINGLE record label Exigent Records

2. I’d venture to say the survival of the musical species is mostly thanks to the development of a new all ages venue downtown called The Shred Shed

3. The controversial “Rave scene”

Now, the shed is growing and expanding, Exigent records is churning out new product and ideas. The Burner scene is…ugh. Is your music project doing what it needs to “grow?” I’ma up the anty a little bit right now: send a link of your music to:

theshredshedslc@gmail.com

and send a carbon copy to:

jane_guerrero79@yahoo.com

WE WILL ENDORSE YOU! This means you have a VERY good chance of being booked as a first time band, and much less of a chance if you’re the same crap with a new hat. There you have it! All you have to do is get to work, record something, email something, and if you bring a shit-ton of people to a show: WE WILL CONTINUE TO ENDORSE YOU! Thats ANY kindof music from Barbershop to Grindcore to Trap-beats to Folk. We want new music and if you bring it to us we will support you. No more excuses chumps, get to work.
