Leg Lifters remix the Shark

By Afflicted Wolf on June 18, 2010

What do you get when you pair electronic music and the boys from All Leather, Nathan Joyner & Justin Pearson, a little number like to call Leg Lifters and with the giant teeth of the Shark Attack these boys are feasting on an awesome song to remix. Now all the Boppers are well aware of Shark Attack, but let us repeat the biography of All Leather for the ignorant.

Shark Attack - Second in Line at the Used Needle Exchange (Leg Lifters remix)

“ALL LEATHER is what one would find on the (dance) floor of a seedy gay bar… the sonic perception of the last true socially accepted prejudices. One can hear, “fuckin’ faggots”, being yelled over and over as the poor brown and white trash trio make their way to the charts among the slew of what has already been done a million times over. You know, the thievery and legitimate trash filling the mp3 landfills of yesterday. The band calls for more irony, more distortion, more annoying tones, as well as bleeps, zips, snaps, and glitchy jabs. If you take a look at the world we are living in, it only makes sense.”

Now I had the pleasure of seeing Shark Attack [Live], with Bloody Beetroots [Live] & All Leather [LIVE!] So if Leg Lifters is anything near the energy of these detrimental three…then we are in for one hell of an Audible Attack. Words can only travel so far, lets see how all of you feel about the essential remix of Shark Attack’s ‘Second In Line for the Used Needle Exchange’ by Leg Lifters.

Deathpit 77

By Afflicted Wolf on April 28, 2010

I’ve been to Ozzfest, Slayer & Slipknot concerts and I’ve never had any problem lasting the whole show, or at least a whole set in the front, buried among the many sweaty, swaying bodies. However, at the Beetroots performance in San Diego, House Of Blues..I found myself for the first time ever having to TAP OUT! The crowd was so horny for the roots…and with their Deathcrew 77 LIVE set…who couldn’t be.

That night we were all victim to the energy each song carried and when every song echoed throughout the venue, we were all puppets on a string, forced to jump, chant and repeat. Warp 1977; 1 , 2, 3 MOTHER FUCKERS!!!!!!!

The Bloody Beetroots - Warp 1977

Bob Rifo is a spider. There is no other way to describe him. Skinny body, 1977 etched into his chest..arms outstretched across the keys playing the song, with the guitar on his back…he swings the guitar around and plays along to the song, then he begins to sing into the microphone. While Tommy Tea up at the controls playing along, jumping off the stage and providing the dying fans with bottles of water. And lets not forget the drummer, who kept up with all the electronic madness playing on a real borrowed House of Blues set.

If one was ever curious what it is like to be in the recording studio with the roots when they make their music..all of us got just a taste and feeling that night at the House of Blues and it was mind NUMBING! And thank god San Diego had the balls to respond to it *(the last show I had watched in San Diego was more commercial than a fucking superbowl sunday…people standing around with champagne glasses looking pretty and snorting coke behind the scenes)..give me a break…this place had literally had BLOOD and when I exited the venue there were cops…girls in handcuffs and more than enough noise to make me more satisfied than an electric pig plugged into the biggest power outlet! I felt like the audience in Rome exiting the Collesium, and I hope those Italian Basterds, the mother fucking Bloody Beetroots, felt like glorified gladiators causing a great bloodbath of music….and it was only Friday for the roots, they still went on to play two more shows back to back in Los Angeles at HARD with great success!

*Deth Hertz, what a pleasure it was to finally meet the two men behind the music. More than awesome set and glad to see the boys got a fair amount of time up on stage. Opening up with the doors to the venue and wrapping up right before the start of Shark Attack’s LIVE set. Which opened with ‘Second in Line at the Used Needle Exchange’ followed by ‘Northern City Riot’ two songs I’ve only heard digitally and never seen physically strewn out before me with live instruments.

Shark Attack, Shooting Judas Album [Review]

By Afflicted Wolf on November 19, 2009

shooting judas review 51mp7k+gZ4L. SS500 Shark Attack, Shooting Judas Album [Review]

Shooting Judas by Shark Attack

Shooting Judas was released in June of 2009 and nearly five months later tracks are still being remixed and making headway on the scene. The first track, ‘Creation ex Nihilo’ is the perfect opening track. ‘Northern City Riot’ is a perfect reflection of helplessness and fear with it’s high pitched and violent screech..but so much maturity with the breaks placed in between. One moment its rough and mean and then we are catching our breaths again!

I slowly feel the waters turning and by the time, ‘This Way, I know a Short Cut’ comes on can already feel the rhythmic circling of the dorsal fin as the Shark begins to move closer. I found the CD/Album/Release (whatever’s more appropriate these days) to be very well balanced. The first half is mainly without vocals and contains the heavy set dance beats us electro junkies crave, but with an original twist..find me another group like Shark Attack, I don’t think you can.

Once you reach the first hump and start heading over the other side of the tracks starting with ‘Tonight the Ambulance is Not for Us’ the waters are calmer and beautiful vocals emerge and I almost forget how completely different the first part of the album was until ‘Ghost Knives’ comes on and now we are mixing the 1st parts heavy dark tones with the second halves lyrical soul.

Talking about coming full circle..I miss albums being put together so professionally and illustrating so much thought in their creation. I usually have to go dig out my Pink Floyd albums if I want a compilation of tracks to tell me a story!

Shooting Judas Track List:

1. Creation ex Nihilo
2. Holy Smokes
Shark Attack - Northern City Riot
4. This way, I know a short cut
5. Dead Last (ft. Sex Mannequin)
6. Tonight the ambulance is not for us
7. Shooting Judas (ft. Jon Piotrowski)
8. Ghost Knives (Ft. DJ:EJ)
Shark Attack - No, You Clap (ft. Memo RX)
10. This is the Shark Attack (ft. Aron Blomberg)
11. Holy Ghost

Quick little Background Info:

Shark Attack hails from San Diego and has played with many great performers including, but not limited to mstrkrft, steve aoki, deadmau5, mgmt, nadastrom, toxic avenger, bloody beetroots and chromeo! In 2008 they won the San Diego Music Award for Best DJs and their album was nominated for the SDMA for Best Recording!

Mike Delgado, Patrick Heaney operate Shark Attack as DJs and when they play live as a band they add Aaron Blomberg. Their live set is Mike Delgado – bass, Patrick Heaney – keys, Aaron Blomberg – guitar/vox. Live Band and DJ duo, sound like a unique, but familiar thing? (soulwax/2manydjs)!

*Bonus
One thing I shouldn’t at all fail to mention is that many artist have been having a go at remixing the tunes from the release ‘Shooting Judas,’ one of those we had the exclusive for previously on the site ‘Ghost Knives’ (remixed by Disco Villains) [click here if you missed it]
