San Diego, California experimental punk four piece The Locust will join Providence, Rhode Island eight-piece Arab On Radar and Providence guitar/drums duo Lightning Bolt, starting Sunday in Chicago, for a month of US dates dubbed Oops! The Tour.
    The shows will feature a changing set of experimental/abrasive guest artists, among them Blood Brothers, Cattle Decapitation, Erase Errata, Get Hustle, Hella, JD & Friends, Orthrelm, Rah Bras, The Flying Luttenbachers, Mr. Quintron & Miss Pussycat, and Wolf Eyes. Check the Oops! Tour Website for details.
    Meanwhile, The Locust have two new albums in the works. One, a Peel Session LP to be released on Ipecac, will feature songs recorded at the BBC last year with John Peel. Those sessions included Moth-Eaten Deer Head, Priest With Sexually Transmitted Diseases - Get Out Of My Bed, Cattle Mutilation, and The Perils Of Believing In Round Squares.
    Also upcoming from The Locust will be a new studio album to be released on the rather respectable Anti Records, whose roster includes Tom Waits, Tricky, Merle Haggard, and The Promise Ring. | The Locust | | Oops Tour | | Ipecac Recordings | | Anti Records | | top of page |
