Ericka SimoneTelling my friends that my favorite bands name is “Heart Angina” has been one of the bigger challenges in my obsession with #music.
I feel like the #bonkwave kids will like this.

As I was telling @noondlyt, that KEXP performance looks like their breakthrough moment, finally. Should be interesting to see how this goes.
icasticoThey are getting good buzz amongst the 60 year old ex-punk set, I can report. Already shared with me on Facebook twice.
Phil Stevens 
@ErickaSimone OMfG does this slap or what.
@phil_stevens keeping it tight in 10/4 is impressive.
dryad@ErickaSimone Something about it _does_, admittedly, make me increasingly anxious :P
@aimee if it doesn’t make you feel SOME type of way…. Is it even art? 🤣
Steve's Place@ErickaSimone They're awesome.
@steter they are something else. Didn’t think anyone else would get it though.
@ErickaSimone I was checking them out a while back. The part of me that plays lead guitar gave 2 thumbs up back then.
KNova@ErickaSimone Great band. Very happy they are blowing up recently. My only complaint is they don’t have more music out. Their EP will need to suffice until next month.
@knova so the secret is, they had a band before this called Les Pontrines (sp?) or something close to that spelling. They have stuff on bandcamp that no one knows about yet. Go find it. 💜
@ErickaSimone Omg you made my night
@knova YAAAAS STAY MUSICALLY BLESSED
GhostOnTheHalfShellI feel like we should enter into an age of creating masks like that for the simple reason of defeating or mocking all the bloody surveillance we are subjected to
@GhostOnTheHalfShell we were just having this convo in class. The new wave of people using masks for privacy reasons. I love it and want to participate.
Fortunately, I have an artist supply store, not too far from me. Maybe it’s time to take up papier-mâché again.
Alternately, it’s to start using embroidering and start making some interesting things that way, but I’m so freaking rusty
CyUn...fortunately... and don't get me wrong your idea is awesome but... the more distinctive of a mask you wear, the easier it is to track you.
So you need to create your wildly creative masks, then meet in secret mask exchanges to mix them up.

It’s less about anonymity, because they don’t need your face to track you .
It’s the protest
I don’t carry my phone anywhere. I leave it at my house. The last thing I need is to be hooked into the fucking Internet when I’m taking a walk.
Jonathan HendryNew Daft Punk dropped.
Eric BonoOne of the greatest performances of all time!
Daniel LakelandBonkwave hunh? Not sure what that is, but I know what I like, and I liked that video.
Is that a microtonal guitar neck on that double-necked bass/guitar thing?
@dlakelan dude has a custom built microtonal DOUBLE bass and treble guitar. It’s insane.
GeePawHill@ErickaSimone DaFuq.
Well. I spoze now I feel less weird. :)
@GeePawHill or…. Is weird the new normal?
🤔
🤔
@ErickaSimone Zeitgeist baby, zeitgeist!
🏴☠️ regor 🐦⬛@ErickaSimone wow, love that! Adding them to my fave Quebecois artists along with P'tit Belliveau
@roger Quebec has all the cool kids right now.
Jon@ErickaSimone I prefer "angina pectoris" - rolls off the tongue better.
@freshstart is that Italian? Everything sounds better in Italian. lol.
@ErickaSimone not as sexy as Italian, it is Latin
@freshstart aaah Latin. The original Italian. lol.
@ErickaSimone before it got sexy, back when it was all just lingua franca and quid pro quo
@freshstart and numbers with letters. lmaooooo.
KimFunny. My music-head nephew just sent me links to them.
@QueenOfTheCroneAge yeah. They’ve been picking up speed recently. Nephew has good tastes.
EyeI like every aspect about this... a lot!
@grb090423 I figured they’d have a fanbase here. lol.
You were right 😄 👍
plasticine_era@ErickaSimone Thanks heaps for this. First time I've heard them. Kick Ass!! Listening to the Vol1 album now.
@ErickaSimone Oh they are really good!!!
@plasticine_era we love a good math rock band.
@ErickaSimone Good times. Thanks Ericka.
xs4me2@xs4me2 I think we’re hearing a new color. looool.
Jess F@ErickaSimone
Interesting translation. I'm not a native french speaker but i'd translate as "chest pain." I guess it's the same thing but heart angina is the clinical version. And sounds clunkier in english which may be the goal 🙂
Thanks for sharing! Hadn't heard them before.
@j_feral technically it would be chest pain but literally would translate to heart angina. Especially if you ever dumped any type of pre-med/med school. lol.
Glad you enjoyed. It’s really interesting work, musically.
John Wilson@ErickaSimone wow that’s awesome
@crazybutable crazy right? To be that technically proficient while wearing… whatever that is.
@ErickaSimone doing it live!
I play the bass and I can’t even conceive of the levels of technical skill it takes to layer two+ loop patterns and then solo on top of that
@ErickaSimone that was one of the coolest things I have seen and heard in a while.
@scotec65 it really is holding my attention on every level.
wobs@ErickaSimone You need to check out this performance/interview they did on Quebec TV last night - fully committed to the bit:
@wobs it won’t play in stupid America but I’m gonna find this. LooooL.
@ErickaSimone smdh this freakin' country. I also just realized my VPN is pointed towards Canada, so if that's an option for you, there ya go!
