Today is post 663 on the way to post 666. I recently found a used copy of Beehive & the Barracudas 2003 album "In Dark Love" at a great local shop in Denver called Drop To Pop. I had for gotten how quirky and fun they were. This recording is from the one time I saw them in 2002 at Tulagi's in Boulder Colorado. They opened up for Hot Snakes. What a great show.
I hadn't really listened to this since I recorded it 23 years ago. I finally checked it out briefly when I retransferred all my MD masters a year or so ago. Hearing the album kicked me into gear though. I went back and listened to all their albums. Kind of in the vein of The Spits or The Briefs. Punk rock but softer edged. They call it Plastic Soul.
Pretty nice sound on this and a killer setlist. Funny stage banter though out and right before Whip Out My Pistol some jackass starts telling them they suck and the lead singer makes swift work of putting him in his place. Fool didn't know who he was dealing with. Enjoy.
