My name is Rob Barbato. I love music, good or bad, so Matzah has asked me to write on his blog from time to time. In my little entries that I'll be posting, I'll clue you in to what's going on in my opinion. So to start off I'm going to tell you about the best record label you've never heard of, Attack Nine Records.
So this label was started by Nick Huntington, to put out quality music by him and his friends. It started of with releases by Freescha, an electronic duo hailed by Moby (I know) as his favorite band. Freescha is more tones on tail meets horror films, than their car commercial loving champion. Anyways, Nick went on to put out records by Paris' Women and Children, the Drexon Field, John Webster Johns, LA's Winter Flowers and Casino vs. Japan. Nick Huntington is the master mind behind this collective, whether it's putting records out, producing his own records (Freescha , Canyon Country), or collaborating with Emmett Kelly (The Cairo Gang, Bonnie Prince Billy) on their ...the surf, the sundried...project...you're in for a treat.
Women and Children
Though women and children released their last record 2006 "Paralyzed Dance Tonight" on Narnack Records. They're a huge part of the Attacknine family. They're on tour right now with Bright Black Morning Light and then Sean Lennon in the U.S.A (Check the dates.)
John Webster Johns will be playing guitar with them.

John Webster Johns is one of the most original artists of our time; fusing lo-fi recordings with heavy lyrical topics, he's very hard to label. Just check his shit out and try to understand how much better he is than you.
Anyway, check all that shit out. You'll love it or hate it, but this is music in it's purest form, without pretense or money.
