Music News: Narthex Does It Themselves
In the Subdominion of Narthex.

M.Ace and Dean Sabatino have thoughtfully concentrated all their erstwhile Narthexualism into a single, blazing white-hot subdomain of post-punk goodness. Now you can easily browse through their fascinating collection of photographs, memoirs, and most importantly, free downloads of their tunage: big fat slabs of slashing power chords and chunky arpeggios, backed by Dean's intricate drumming, and topped off with M.Ace's hoarse, but not unpleasant vocalizations. Check out My Girlfriend Hates Me and Crazy Rhythms, for a representative sample.

This is the good stuff that came out of punk; the thousands of little bands that climbed out of their basements, threw out the stale trappings of arena rock, bypassed the shady business practices of recording companies, and instead, decided to do it themselves.
