Football, etc. & Amy Kasio
































One's a band, one's a musician, both are pretty awesome. Football, etc. hails from Austin, TX & creates a wonderful indie-emo. They bear resemblance to Pohgoh, Jejune, and Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate). Fun thing about them? Two women, one guy-- uncommon for this genre. Anyways, they're pretty solid. Amy Kasio started her journey in Ohio, but has relocated to Portland, Oregon. She had her start on just a Casio keyboard, but recently incorporates other music programs & instruments. She blends electro, punk, riot grrl, and a bunch of other blanket term bullshit. She's great, 'sbout it.

So this is where I tell you that the files available aren't full albums. They're little snippets, because I cannot find releases. I'll have to buy them. SO SHOULD YOU! :D


Also, check out their MySpace's.

Kap Bambino

Kap Bambino formed in Bordeaux, France circa 2001. They have their own label (WWILKO), and are fucking insane as shit. Their music is pure electro-punk with crazy ass synths, loud & noisy fucking distortion, and catchy vocals. People compare them to Crystal Castles all the time, but there's really no comparisson. They're two different types of electric music, honestly. This is electroclash at its best, and my personal favorite electro-punk group. If you want to headbang & dance at the same time... check these two out.

Orion Bouiver (music), and Caroline Martial (voice/lyrics) combine to create this musical force.

What Are They Up To?
Touring! That's about it, so support them as much as possible. Buy their merch, buy their shirts, and buy their albums.
