Your guy Decoy Deloy is back with WASTOIDS Music News! As always, we’re brought to you by Hello Merch and this week we’re saying, “Hey, how are you” to Limbeck. Founded 25 years ago in California, the band crossed pop punk sensibilities with rootsy alt-country.

Limbeck recently dropped a brand new set of songs, “Kooks (Is What We Are)” b/w “Here Me For Free.” Don’t go looking for the songs on your streaming apps—you can only hear these via a limited edition hand numbered, orange flexi disc—limited to only 250 copies:

In other news: A new TV show based on the music of Rancid‬ is in the works; new music Freckle, a duo of Ty Segall and Corey Madden of Color Green; and Sunny War, who shares a new song with Steve Ignorant of Crass. And to close, according to a new deep dive from the online site Music Radar, more music is released in a single day in 2024 than the entire year of 1989. Is that too much music?

Did you know that possibly the most famous Ramones song didn't even come out as a single at first? On the episode, John and Marc drop the needle on their classic "I Wanna Be Sedated" b/w "The Return of Jackie and Judy," released not to promote the 1978 album Road to Ruin but rather the obscure 1980 movie Times Square.

Check out why it's great and why the Ramones are great (duh) on this episode of the Spindle.

On Friday, December 6th, WASTOIDS is hosting our first-ever movie screening at Hello Lincoln—our HQ and also home to Hello Merch & Hello Screenprinting. We’re beyond excited to screen the first Phoenix showing of Born Innocent: The Redd Kross Story.

Directed by Andrew Reich, the film tells the story of brothers Jeff and Steven McDonald, who founded Redd Kross as teenagers in the Southern California of the 1970s. Directed by Andrew Reich, this documentary makes the case that RK is the seminal West Coast band of the last half century, a “secret handshake” exchanged between punk, college rock, grunge, glam, power pop, metal, and indie rock fans.

Packed with archival footage, interviews with the McDonalds, and thoughts and stories from members of Pearl Jam, Sonic Youth, The Bangles, Dinosaur Jr, The Go-Go’s, Soundgarden, Black Flag, and many more, the movie shows why people like Thurston Moore called Redd Kross "one of the most important bands in America."

Come hang out with us to close out the year of Redd Kross, 2024, which has also seen a brand new self-titled Redd Kross album—you can get your copy from In the Red Records—and Now You're One of Us: The Incredible Story of Redd Kross, a book written with Dan Epstein. Come hang out and eat popcorn with us.

To get your ready for the show, you’re about to hear a talk we taped August 11th at the Valley Bar. It’s WASTOIDS chief Sam Means in conversation with both Jeff and Steve—covering not only the band’s history, takes on the hardcore scene, and Steve’s work with Sam’s band, The Format—but also, the saga of Tater Totz, the McDonalds’ strange Beatles tribute.

Call us anytime at 1-877-WASTOIDS.
