At its most basic, Lords' music is pure American punk rock, following
in the footsteps of the Circle Jerks and Black Flag. However, laid upon
that punk foundation are layers of everything from Fugazi to the Pixies
to Le Shok. At the heart of nearly every discordant, abrasive track is
an up-tempo rock beat, as suitable for dancing as it is for
headbanging. Lords have tapped into an energy so fresh and pure that
enjoying Swords wasn't even really a matter of taste or choice; From
the first listen, I was hooked. - Lambgoat 9/10
Due to an unforeseen maintenance problem found just briefly ago, we
have no choice but to close the Red and the Black effectively
immediately for at least 48 hours until we can correct the problem. We
sincerely apologize for the inconvenience to both our loyal following and to the hard working bands.
Thank you for your understanding and it's just a silly snag, so we'll be back in no time.
The bar is open, but due to an unforeseen maintenance problem there is no show tonight. We

Jeremy Jay YOU TUBE "Very excited about music, Jeremy's writing is influenced by dreams and
the more fantastic surrealist sensibility linked with the French New
Wave. The Art deco era storybook romance of the movies like " Our
Modern Maidens" & "My Life To Live" held aspecial fascination.
There's also a strong '50s Rock n' Roll sensibility happening; Buddy
Holly is one of Jeremy's favorite singers along, with Richie Valens and
'60s era Yea-Yea Francois Hardy" - K Records
