Sunday, December 7Codefendants with Heart & Lung and Skuff Micksun at Grog ShopDoors 7 PM l Show 8 PMALL AGES$20 advance l $23 day of show+ $3 at door if under 21CODEFENDANTS:Fat Mike of NOFXs newly launched project, Codefendants, are the breath of fresh air and the steel-toe-cap kick in the nuts music has needed for too long. Get Dead vocalist Sam Kings graffiti crew were giving tattoos and making flash art to raise money to help rapper Ceschi Ramos when he was in prison. Months later they met at the Gilman Street Project in Berkeley, California. They bonded, talking about their love of hip-hop and punk rock, over a bottle of Jameson. They didnt know it yet, but they had just started Codefendants. Impossible to define by traditional standards, Codefendants were forged out of a desire to make an album that sounded like nothing else; a completely genre-fluid album, a cross between hip hop, new-wave, flamenco, and the Beatles. They call the genre Crime Wave.
