I wish I could explain why Reflections is the best record ever, but in case you hadn't noticed, this is a live review of their set at Kimo's on Friday night and not a record review, so that's all I'm going to say about it. - (Mike McGuirk)

their rep as sexiest band in the world by releasing a debut 12-inch that is without a doubt the best record ever printed on vinyl and sold to the general public!
Total Shutdown have slowly but surely assumed a spot as my most favorite band in the city. Their shows are becoming legendary , a week ago they hammered down
back when Weasel Walter first appeared touring w/ a five- or six-piece unit and playing the dive-bomber jazz metal that freaked everybody out. Total Shutdown are even more insane than those early Luttenbacker formations were Anyway, between that night at du Nord so long ago, & the Friday-night gig
a thread about the band Total Shutdown (Load Records, Rock Is Hell Records, Estatic Yod).......
"Total Shutdown are playing a type of music heard nowhere else. The only band they come close to are the earliest incarnations of the Flying Luttenbackers....
damn thats wild. yes there was "the bus" run by jho0n benson from a minor forest which would park under overpasses and have rock/noise/ounk/exp shows. miss the bus alot. that. staten island ferry show. sounds insane howd that happen
