3 Feet High & Rising: Members of ASPIGA, Graduation Speech, Public Serpents, Reunions & Seeing Snakes Form ERRTH & Share Control / Sleep All Day EP (self-released)


Kevin "Part Time Kevin" Day from Part Time PR often sends me press releases, which I've used for tons of coverage, as well as interviews, here on The Witzard and for an array of sites for which I contribute; some of those acts including Crossed Keys, Dirty Shrines, DIVIDED HEAVEN, Elway, and more. So, now, it's been a pretty cool, full-circle momemnt to be recieve press from/for and be able to cover one of Day's own bands. It's my pleasure to introduce Philadelphia's newest Punk band, ERRTH. Showcasing both current and former members of ASPIGA, Public Serpents, Reunions, and Seeing Snakes, ERRTH takes their love of bands from The East Bay & Chicago and adds their own Northeast attitude into the mix. ERRTH, actually, just played their first show as part of Crossed Keys' Believes In You record release show back in May. Their debut EP is made up of two blistering tracks that showcase two of the band's three song-writers. "Control," written and sung by Kevin Day, is a punchy number that is accented by a bouncy bassline and bursts of group vocals. "Sleep All Day," conversely written and sung by Eric Saylor, is more anthemic in its approach and allows the guitars to shine.


The songs were recorded by Arik Victor (Plow United, KILL YOUR IDOLS) at Creep Recording Studio, then, sent to Scott Goodrich (Culture Abuse, Broadway Calls) to be mixed, and finally, handed off to Dave Downham (Beach Slang, mewithoutyou, Into It. Over It) for mastering at Gradwell House. Control / Sleep All Day is available now on all of your preferred streaming platforms. ERRTH will be performing at Philly's own Kung Fu Necktie on Wednesday, July 19th with Arms Aloft & Guerilla Poubelle. Formed in December of 2022, ERRTH is the newest addition to Philadelphia's vibrant Punk scene. Including Kevin Day (ASPIGA, Graduation Speech,) Eric Saylor (Reunions,) Tim DeMarco (ex-Public Serpents,) and Brian McClure (Seeing Snakes,) ERRTH mixes the influences of East Bay, Chicago, and Northeast Punk bands for an end result that is familiar yet refreshing. With three different song-writers at the helm, each identity has a moment to shine, but is strongly reinforced by the group as a whole. Since its inception, the band has spent every opportunity writing together and their debut EP, Control / Sleep All Day, is just the beginning of what they have to offer. So, stay tuned and keep an eye out for their debut album in 2024.

"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby , Herbie Fully Loaded , Georgia Rule, Machete , and Freaky Friday . Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of...

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra...

Liberty Bell Cracked In 1/2: Ween - "Freedom of '76" (Gene Ween's Final Send-Off)

Chocolate & Cheese (1994) was one of the first albums I bought with my own money. I was in some sort of BMG Music Club , where you'd buy 5 CD's and then get 10 for "FREE." It was all sent through mail order and you picked the titles from some special booklet. I'm almost positive that Chocolate & Cheese's side boob-baring album cover was what initially drew me in... mind you, I was 12-15 and the zany Ween logo/middle finger CD graphic really didn't hurt either. Honestly, I forget how I really felt about it @ the time, but a few years later, my older cousin Josh told me that Ween were this BIG college "jam band." CKY did some sort pf 93.3 radio takeover to promote their new album and played "Freedom of '76" late that night on air. Needless to say, I re-visited Chocolate & Cheese @ about 20-something this go 'round and I fucking loved it! Ween were really weird, yet talented... almost too talented. I can vaguel...
