Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Start – Last Show Ever!

Long-running, long-named indie outfit Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Start will be playing their last show ever tomorrow night at The Auction House in Audubon, NJ.

For all you wimps and sensitive types – or for that matter, anyone who can’t make it to Saturday’s festivities – the band will also be playing an acoustic pre-last-show show tonight at Tunes in Marlton, NJ.

Joining Up Up Down Down for both performances will be Lincoln, Nebraska’s Tie These Hands.

While Up Up Down Down’s touring schedule has been admittedly light over the past couple years, the early part of their career found them traveling the country at a time when indie meant independent and emo had nothing to do with jabbing yourself in the arm with your dad’s rusty screwdriver. That is what kids are doing these days, right?

According to front man Steve Poponi, “We have been doing this band with various line-ups for about 10 years, and after making Worst Band Name Ever, I am happy to go out on a good note and pursue other fun stuff (fatherhood, golf, taste testing).”

It’s unclear what the future holds for Poponi, Up Up Down Down’s one constant over the years. He’ll certainly be involved with indie rock in some capacity as he continues to record music for bands at his Gradwell House studios. It’s a good thing for me, since a big chunk of the Beartrap roster (Jena Berlin, Scream Hello, Braindead, Into It. Over It., Makeout Party, Brass) have recorded albums there. Either way, if you’re anywhere near the Philly area, it will be well-worth your time to attend these shows. After all, it’s the end of an era. A really great era.

ELECTRIC SIX’S NEW ALBUM DUE OUT 10/21!

Metropolis recording artists ELECTRIC SIX are gearing up for the release of their fifth album FLASHY on October 21, 2008. Produced by guitarist Zach Shipps and recorded at Hamtramck Sound Machine in Michigan, Flashy is a diverse journey in their absurdist, surrealist, and oftimes double entendre-driven minds. “Our modus operandi for this record was to use more horns,” vocalist Dick Valentine says with a sideways glance, “And also to write songs on synthesizers and then turn them into guitar-based songs. But the main thing was to get all these songs out of our heads and onto paper. They were in our heads. Now they are on paper.”

In advance of the album’s release, Electric Six will also be playing a handful of shows this week, supported by New York-based Tragedy, a heavy metal tribute to The Bee Gees, including boat cruises in New York City and Boston. In the Fall to kick off album’s release, the band will also embark on an extensive national tour with Local H, kicking off in their homestate of Michigan.
