Tuesday Double Feature: The John Butler Trio "Only One" & Red Fang "Blood Like Cream"

An oddly perfect metaphor for the changing years, zombies keep going no matter what happens. So this week's installment of the Tuesday Double Feature has some living dead videos for you to shuffle in 2014.
So enjoy and don't forget, two in the head and you know they're dead. 

John Butler Trio - "Only One"



Australian jam masters the John Butler Trio are known for their energetically upbeat music. With a rocking reggae vibe and a  folk heart Butler and his gang create some amazing tunes, while their live show is outstanding. Luckily we'll have a chance to see both with the up coming release of their highly anticipated album Flesh & Blood, which will bring them to the Crystal Ballroom for a show February 18th.

Red Fang - "Blood Like Cream"



The broody metal of Portland's own Red Fang has been steadily conquering the world one country at time.  Touring in support of their latest album Whales and Leeches, released this past October on the Relapse Record label, they are currently working their way through Europe. Unfortunately for us here in the Northwest the band won't be back home until the first spring rains. If we're lucky though, maybe they'll bring us back a travel-gift of new music and a couple of home town shows.

Tuesday Double Feature: Sweet Teen Killing Machine "City of the Shrieking Dead" & Peaches and Iggy Pop"Kick It"

I don't know about you, but as of late I have fallen in love with Zombies. I'm not sure what it is about the lumbering flesh eaters that has arrested my fascination so securely, but I'm hooked. From the classics movies of George A. Romero to Max Brooks' novel World War Z, theirs no brain munching, intestine devouring undead ghoul I don't like.
So in honor of the underdogs of the living dead ranks and the survivors that must fight to keep their flesh on their bones, this week's Tuesday Double Feature highlights two videos that feature these hungry corpses.

Sweet Teen Killing Machine - "City of the Shrieking Dead"

Zombie bashing femme fatal and horror punk rock, what else can you ask for.



I was hoping to catch Portland's Sweet Teen Killing Machine at this years Musicfest NW but unfortunately they cancelled their show last minute. Their raw horror punk is dark and gritty and I'm hoping that I can see them play live soon. Until then I have their digital presence to keep the things denizens of the dark at bay.

Peaches feat. Iggy Pop - "Kick It"

It seems totally natural that both Peaches and Iggy Pop fight zombies on the side. Don't you think.



Peaches and Iggy Pop are both artist on the edge and I can't think of any one better to have at my side in a zombie apocalypse. Peaches was just at the Roseland with her one woman DJ/MC act while Iggy Pop and this legendary band mate the Stooges are celebrating the special deluxe edition release of their album Raw Power.
