Tonight Also Tonight: Extreme Animals, Cousin Cole

Posted by Eric Grandy on Thu, Jul 9, 2009 at 9:58 AM

Two more happenings tonight that are well worth your attention even if they didn't make it into the paper:

NYC DJ Cousin Cole is playing Bangers & Mash at the Seesound Lounge tonight. Cousin Cole is one half of the Flagrant Fowl label, along with DJ Pocketknife. His tastes in tracks range from hip hop to indie rock to electro and beyond, and his way with a remix is impeccable. I think my favorite thing of his is his dancey re-edit of Jesus & Mary Chain's "Just Like Honey," but this rework of the Boss' "I'm on Fire" is pretty fun, too:

Also tonight, Paper Rad-related 8-bit thrashers Extreme Animals are at the Hedreen Arts Center (901 12th Ave, call 206-296-2244 for more info). I had the distinct pleasure of catching the Animals a last year at SXSW, and it was awesome—there was a pretty hardcore feedback knob solo and an inspired cover of Archers of Loaf's "Web in Front." About this tour, the duo says:

This summer we are taking a new approach to our tour. We will spend two days in each city we visit. One night we will perform as the Extreme Animals. The other night we will present videos with live performances by Jacob Ciocci and David Wightman (Fortress of Amplitude). These later events will take place in theaters and comfortable galleries, spaces in which the audience can feel free to sit back and relax.

Tonight's show is billed as a screening, which means maybe you won't get to see the band do this (but just maybe they'll still bust out a few songs—please!?):

See Sound does this every week - I don't know when solid acts are playing Bangers and Mash until the day of. Advertising a show a week out would be extremely helpful, just saying.

DAMN! I've been loving the Cousin Cole edits i've come across. That Bruce mix has been one of my anthems at the Grey Gallery night we've been doing.
