You only need one riff.
You only need one wasted, sex starved, stumbling riff, fumbling for its keys, falling into a trashed flat and crawling towards a soiled bed. You only need one apocalyptic scenario of a million unfulfilled power fantasies, one beast of a riff rupturing the chest cavity of awesome Angelinos Bipolar Bear with the viciousness of a thousand satanic anthems straight off Mudhoney’s himnary, or perhaps the Pixies. You only need a riff to take a turn for the worse, but hey, this game was never about winning.

This cracker is included in Bipolar Bear/Talbot Tagora’s “Abstract Distractions” 10” split out soon in OlFactory Records, massive love to Bianca Bracho.

time and time again comes to prove that YES, you really do only need one riff to rock. and in the same sense, sometimes, you only need one line of lyrics.

fuck riffs. just pound the shit out of your instrument at high volumes like a little boy who’s never played an instrument till your knuckles bleed. too much shit culls from the Fall sound anyway.

Pixies comparisons ain’t no lie. Still, good to see that LA can produce things that aren’t Crazytown.
