Ptolemaic Terrascope has been to us what the monolith in 2001 was to the apes. Thanks to its influence we now know to beat each other with jawbones when settling arguments. But seriously, we love the zine and all it stands for so we were happy to see a belated review…

I’ve never been particularly emotional about the death of loved artists; people die, and 9 times out of 10, most of the artists I’ve cared about have been way past their prime by the time they died, so while it’s sad someone died, it’s not like sad because you were…
We would like to bestow an honor on Texans Quarterback Matt Schaub. Yes, there are a lot of talented players on the team but only Schaub has come through to fill a niche for how to tell people they’ve fucked-up a guitar solo in the worst way possible. Now guitar solos are pretty tricky and they often require…
So yes, we’ve finally finished up the recording work on our upcoming release “C is for Cthulhu”, quite possibly the heaviest thing we’ve done in a long while. Of course, no ice cream sundae of RAWK is complete without the metaphorical cherry on top, so at last night’s practice, we…

I know we said that the next thing we were going to do was going to be heavy…not JUST heavy but Higgs-Boson heavy. Work in the rock and roll particle accelerator is still progressing well and except for vocals and continued guitar experiments by the crazed Doctor Heider, I can…
The second weekend of September, the Houston music community will be rallying around one of its pillars – Pam Robinson. It’s no exaggeration to say that she is someone who has fought for Houston music. Back in the days of Walter’s being on Washington Avenue, she was always fighting noise complaints (complaints…
No rest for the geeky! Even though we just released an EP last month, we’ve been pretty busy in the studio over the last few weeks working on “C is for Cthulhu” and while we’re in no rush we’ve gotten quite a bit done. Charlie knocked out his organ duet…
It’s never to early to prepare yourself for the worst and every year people along the gulf coast do just that. What? No, I’m not talking about Hurricanes, fool! I’m taking us playing CCSD‘s Novemberfest again! Forget , hurricanes, zombie apocalypse, and all that jive. The undead and nature won’t come for your…
