Wristwatch
Wristwatch started as a pandemic recording project during the winter of 2020-21 by Madison guitarist-keyboardist-songwriter Bobby Hussy (with bass added by Tyler Spatz). The self-titled result first emerged as a very limited pressing from FDH records in July 2021, but now is back in a new pressing from Hussy's own No Coast label. For those familiar with Hussy's past work, Wristwatch lands somewhere between the guitar frenzy of The Hussy and the synth terrorism of Cave Curse, and is an energetic and entertaining listen (and especially lively in the four-piece live band incarnation). A heavy bill also includes a pair of other Madison bands who released excellent albums in 2021: House of Lud and Daughters of Saint Crispin.
Free.
media release: Heavy night of some big local. Let’s have a summer party.
Wristwatch is Bobby Hussy's new hyperkinetic punk band. Totally on-brand with an eye to the future.
House of Lud continues to pump out garage-doom as indebted to Earth as it is High On Fire.
Daughters of Saint Crispin are doom-laden, molten slow core that aim to sonically suck every last molecule of breathable air out of the room. Get grim.
