You'll leave with a new appreciation of Feist's talents. Tonight, local musicians from the Head and the Heart, Goldfinch, Redwood Plan, and the Courage put that theory to the test. It takes a real gift to create songs that catchy, and I've long suspected that if she didn't sing her own stuff-her voice is way too clean to like-she'd be the most in-demand writer in the music biz. But here's the thing that people forget: She's an excellent songwriter. I totally understand this impulse record labels love Feist because she works perfectly in the context of a dentist's office. (Triple Door) Even though she's appeared on Sesame Street and that automatically makes her cooler than you or I, everyone hates on Feist. Secret Heart: One Evening of Feist Songs Turned Inside and Out To get a further inkling of what Fungal Abyss have in store, check out their forthcoming cassette on Translinguistic Other, Bardo Abgrund Temple, at Shit is deep, heavy, and mind expanding. That's a cast you can trust to launch you out of the mundane. For tonight's edition, they've enlisted DJ Ampbuzz (Kinski guitarist Chris Martin) and Yada Yada Blues Band (consisting of Master Musicians of Bukkake members), with Dumb Eyes' rad image-generator Christian Petersen on visuals. The goal: to curate a night of mycological transcendence, which climaxes with Fungal Abyss improvising as psychedelically as they can. (Comet) Brainy Seattle metal band Lesbian's alter ego, Fungal Abyss, have been holding court every Wednesday in August at the Comet (full disclosure: I'm DJing at the August 24 event).
