The Best Bands with The Newest Bands! Every third Wednesday of the Month! And this month is The Valentines Hangover Show!
Basically, the Faded Handstamp shows are all kind of known for having a lot of diverse bands each night, yet they all kinda work as a line up. This night is about connecting the scene (bands, fans, venues) as much as possible. We have 3 or 4 killer, established bands playing with really 1 new band each time.
This months line-up: The Silent Treatment, Identity Crises, Life Skills and No.1 (debut show)
The Silent Treatment~ Classic punk rock noise from Minneapolis. All the subtlety of a car accident. This four piece band's commitment to the stripped down noises of confrontation will leave you yearning for the days of glowering in disgust at your family's kitchen table. The group’s EP You’re Gonna Get It (2018) and Everything's Just Fine (2021) are available on Bandcamp, and have received airplay on KFAI's Spin with Cyn. The Silent Treatment has played the Turf Club, 7th Street Entry, The Cabooze, Uptown VFW as well as the usual suspects of the Minneapolis live music scene with acts such as Dave Rave, Ol' Yeller, Little Man, The Short Fuses, and the Fret Rattles. Always loud, always fast and full of energy, the Silent Treatment is Keely Lane (Ol’ Yeller, Trailer Trash, Rich Mattson and the Northstars) on drums, Dave Randall (The Boot R&B, Kinda Kinky, The Magnolias) on bass, Rob Sells (Low Rats, Loose Rails) on guitar, and Claire Luger on vocals.
Identity Crisis~The Kids are alright and punk as fuck!
Life Skills is a Minneapolis art-punk duo. They sound like Mo Tucker and Mike Watt drunk and playing songs about the animal kingdom, domestic chores and flying saucers. Life Skills existed briefly in 2007, who was Emily, Mason and Morgan, the remnants of The Cancer Kids. It then went into a pupal stage for ten years. When it emerged it was just Emily (drums/vocals) and Jesse (fuzz bass)
No.1 has no bio or photos yet because this will be their very first show. Come give them some love or some gentle hazing:)
