Ibex Clone — All Channels Clear (Goner)

Photo by Sara Moseley

All Channels Clear by Ibex Clone

Ibex Clone shares three (out of four) members with Hash Redactor, but their sound could hardly be more different. George Williford, the guitarist/singer, Alec McIntyre the bassist and Meredith Lones who plays drums here all did time in that clanking, lumbering Memphis post-punk band, whose slashing attack obscured ominous, muttering Fall-like chants. Their new project, Ibex Clone, slants considerably towards the new wave end of things, its shouty, jangly tunefulness recalling bands like the Alarm, the Call and Big Country.

The band can be excused, maybe, for reaching backwards for influenced. It is, after all, named after the only extinct creature ever successfully cloned (though the offspring died soon after). But while the lab-created Pyrenean Ibex stumbled only briefly into the new millennium, its namesake forges on, letting punching, rolling energy carry it past replication into something fresh and engaging.

“There Is No Light,” for instance, unspools the bright melodic clarity of guitars amid pounding percussion and bass. George Williford sings in a florid, anthemic way that might remind you, a little, of Ian McCulloch. There’s some punk DNA in the way that Lones whacks her kit, in how the guitar stabs through the mix, but embellished glittery dark drama. Think more mid-1980s Cure, less late 1970s Oi band, and it’ll get you into the neighborhood.  

It’s true that “All Channels Clear” rides a serrated bassline, one that could have hailed from Mark E. Smith’s neighborhood, but it is soon embellished with swells of jangling guitars and swooning romantic verses. “They say that violence is friendly,” sings Williford with a fine sense of drama, but it’s also hooky and fey. If you spent any part of your youth pining after pale young men decked out in eyeliner (or wanting to be one), Ibex Clone has got your number.

Ibex Clone – All Channels Clear LP (Goner)

Pretty solid debut from the remaining three-fourths of Hash Redactor, a fun Memphis band that didn't really have the directional pull of what they're driving at now, which points towards the historical re-enactment of a band that might've opened for R.E.M. at the Antenna Club way back when. The flangey guitar and wheedlin' stringbend technique, general slow-midtempo autumnal melancholy and Alec McIntyre's vocal decisions put this firmly in the wheelhouse of dogeared, clip-cornered, marked-up records that have survived college radio station purges (or survive today in private homes) since the '80s, evidence of some impassioned level of debate for/against (or in specific cases, debates on For Against) still affixed. There's a little Polvo in the slipperiness and southern-ness of these tracks, a lot of Bob Mould in the vocals, and the general demeanor of a band in the throes of the past, c/o Slovenly, My Dad Is Dead, Honor Role, the Middle Class LP, and so on. Ex-Nots and ex-Ex-Cult, Ibex Clone gives off a sense of the grandeur in finality that one wouldn't normally associate with the molotov of Goner Records, but it's set in stone now, decaying nature from which something new will surely grow.

Ibex Clone (Memphis, Tennessee) are very hard to describe.  The closest sound I can think of is You Beauty, a highly underrated Australian Band.  “Jersey Flegg” is still one of my favorite records.

This has aspects of psychedelic, folk, and post-punk.  Sometimes the guitar sounds like Andy Summers (The Police) or The Fall.  Members play/have played with Ex-Cults, and Hash Redactor.

This is a cassette release.

Public Interest — Spiritual Pollution (Erste Theke Tontraeger)

Spiritual Pollution by Public Interest

Public Interest, out of Oakland, makes dank, echoey post-punk a la Hash Redactor, FACS and Spray Paint. Its tunes live in a blighted netherworld, like ours but filled with foggy dread. Time ticks away in scrabbly eighth note guitar cadences, bass nodding its concurrence, drums steady mostly, but erupting in occasional outrage, a hollowed-out voice chanting ominous disconnected phrases. It’s the kind of music you imagine coming from cement rooms underground, walls wet with troubling moisture, doors closed and escape impossible.

The band has recently grown from a one-person project headed by Marbled Eye’s Chris Natividad to something more collaborative and live. Where 2019’s EP Between leaned heavily on synths and electronics, this one bristles with organic rhythms. Andrew Oswald plays drums with hammering precision and explosive release. “Why Bother?” slouches menacingly into view on a bass solo, corrosive and raw. Guitars, drums and vocals fall in line with the verse, a chugging machine of punk dissatisfaction. Yet though the verse is dogged, the chorus opens out into grand, anthemic drama, more Fontaines DC than the Fall. “Why bother?” asks Natividad. “Why bother at all?”

Indeed, the most compelling tracks open out expansively from their austere palette, striking larger, more militant postures. “Falling Ash” ponders climate change and California’s recent spate of wildfires, its red skies, its ashy precipitation, the catastrophe’s ability to afflict even the well-heeled with their “nervous laughter from meeting rooms.” And yet, as the song rumbles and clanks through surreal imagery, it gains force and power and even a dash of lyricism in its liquid clear guitar lines.

The title track is the album’s best song because of the way it expands to exceed disciplined post-punk structures with arching, keening guitars and agile figures of bass. It buzzes and hovers in a nodding, hypnotic way that reminds me of the late, great Prolapse, and its message is darkly profound. “Spiritual pollution/keep them down, keep them dumb,” sings Natividad in a song that grows from imprecation to rousing manifesto. Exciting.

GONERFEST 16:  9/26/19- 9/29/19, Memphis, TN (all photos by Slim Hiney unless otherwise noted...the good ones were by other people).

Why did it take me so long to get my ass down to Memphis and attend Goner Fest? I have no idea. The last few years my pal and I went out to Cropped Out in Louisville, KY and since that wasn’t happening this year we decided to do Goner Fest and that, my friends, turned out to be a great decision.

 We got lucky with a cool air bnb in a midtown spot right n the middle of all the action (walking distance to one of the venues).

We missed The Limes at the opening ceremony at the gazebo (spittin’distance from Goner Records who, of course,  are the fine folks who put this festival together……we made two trips to Goner to record shop, most excellent shop! Killer selection and friendly, helpful staff).

Thursday night at the Hi-Tone started with between band DJs Anthony Bedard and Mitch Cardwell revving the crowd up. Minneapolis’ Green/Blue, a band made up of folks from top-notch bands like The Soviettes and The Blind Shake, got the party started and their energy jolted me out of my sickness (my scratchy throat had just started…it was to get worse over the weekend).

Green/ Blue

Madison, WI’s, The Hussy, who have a new record out on Dirtnap, blazed through a set of hi-nrg tunes and were certainly having fun doing it. I met head Hussy Bobby later in the night and he was a most righteous chap.

Sweet Knives were up next and this band features Memphis legend Alicija Trout who’s got lots of charisma. Not my favorite band of the festival or anything but did enjoy most of it.

Louisiana’s Trampoline Team very well may have been my favorite band of the festival. A chant/ jitter punk growl that  sounded like the same song over and over. A totally freaking GREAT song so even if it was the same song I sure didn't mind. Don’t miss these folks if they blow through your town.

Trampoline Team 

Canada’s early 70’s psych band Simply Saucer (featuring Cleveland legend Craig Bell) bored me….well at least for the first half of the set then really turned it on and the 2nd half of the set and burned.

 At 1:00 AM I was still standing upright and thank god ‘cos the King Brothers took the stage and proceeded to ….well, dump a garbage can full of all kinds of muck all over the unsuspecting show goers (or maybe they were suspecting). They growled and grunted their way through set with the singer mostly in the crowd standing on hands and shoulders. These guys were insane.

King Brothers insanity 

 Friday 9/27/19

Of the afternoon bands at Memphis Made Brewery the ones I really enjoyed were New Zealand’s Vincent HL (Crazy Horse meets VU said I), Tucson’s Lenguas Largas (a few folks from Resonars) dripped and oozed rock and roll blood. Kelley Sanderson, who used to be in Those Darlin’s (a DAGGER fave) played a nice folksy solo set.

Vincent H.L. 

Kelley Anderson 

Back at the Hi-Tone on Friday night the DJs were Siltbreeze’s Tom Lax and Feeding Tube Records’ Byron Coley a few guys who know a thing or two about music. Good music.

We missed Mall Walker but caught Richard Papiercuts et Les Inspecteurs and I think I like the recordings a bit more than seeing them on stage. His Scott Walker meets Joy Division sound is certainly unique but again, gimme the records.

Paul Caporino has been doing the M.O.T.O. (Masters of the Obvious) machine for many years with a hundred hit songs and they played my fave “Dick About It.” Lots a energy and hooks and  rapid fire tunes.

Good-natured Aussie folks Thigh Master delighted the crowd with their wiry n’ wired pop sounds and they were among my faves (excellent, new record out on Goner).

The last time I saw Nots, was when they blew through Denver about 4 or 5 years ago as a quartet but think they’ve been a trio for quite some time and certainly delivered on this night with 30 minutes of pure RAWK (new rekkid out on Goner as well).

Headliners on this night was Oblivians (the band featuring Eric from Goner) and hey, having Quintron on keyboards was like getting extra whipped cream on your ice cream. Another one of my favorite sets at Goner as these gents barely had 4 walls and a ceiling left by set’s end.

Of the afternoon bands on Saturday the ones that converted me were the high energy of Opossums and New Zealand’s two-piece Na Noise (featuring one of the gals from Vincent HL) who plunked out a clutch of excellent songs. What can I say, I’m a convert.  Canadian punk band Priors seemed like they came to do two thinks, drink beer and play some great punk rock and succeeded in both (singer was a total character) while the Dixie Dicks gay take on country was hee-larious and loads of fun.

Tucson’s Resonars have been a fave of mine for a long while and they did not disappoint at all. Leader Matt Rendon has too many good songs to count and played many of them on this night while closing out the afternoon gig was Oblivions/Reigning Sound’s Greg Cartwright & the Tip Tops  doing a lovely set of gravelly/soulful tunes. Still love his vocals.

 Back to the Hi-Tone for Saturday night and the DJs were The Mummies’ Russell Quan and Bazooka Joe (Slovenly Records) and these cats had a bonafide dance party going on!

We only caught the last tune or two by Teardrop City (featuring Laurie Stirrat) but got front and center for Australia’s Parsnip and while I like their new record (out now on Trouble in Mind) the live set was even better. Lots o’ energy, charisma and fun, catchy songs.

Not sure why I expected to not like Giorgio Murderer in a live setting but really liked their set. Two guys on synths and a drum machine (at least from where I could see in the back of the club).

Memphis faves Hash Redactor drilled holes with guitars all night (the band also featured 2 Nots and one Ex Cult) and it was another one of my fave sets. Do not miss if they fall into your town.

Tommy and the Commies hail from the great white north and brought their mod fun down for a quick but catchy set while the kings of budget rock, The Mummies hit the stage at 1:00am (with a short film beforehand) and played all the hits (including their cover of Devo’s “Uncontrollable Urge”). What a night.

Sunday 9/29/19

Closing ceremonies in the sun was a nice way to end the festival with the Sharde Thomas & the Rising Star Fife & Drum Band who had the crowd raising their hands and shaking their feet.

 Gonerfest is a top notch Grade A. Eric , Zac and their team put on an excellent festival and the folks who attend really love and  appreciate it (ie: no dicks at all, everyone was cool). I got my ass out there this year so next year it’s your turn (and I plan on being there as well).
