If your impression of one-man bands is limited to Dick Van Dyke banging cymbals with his knees in Mary Poppins, Monday is a good time to acquaint yourself with some folks who don’t need a full band to rock. Making his own damn rehearsal schedule and travel arrangements is Oklahoma’s El Paso Hot Button, a lone tornado from the Dust Bowl who kicks up a furious concoction of blues, punk, and metal like he’s The White Stripes. Also trimming dead weight is Austin’s Daniel Francis ZDoyle, a drummer who wrings throbbing spazz-metal out of frantic skinbeating and a looped, perpetually feedbackging guitar. The Unwound-esque unraveling of Ume and the GSL-like skronk of Arkansas’ Church of the Snack requires more than two hands, so don’t be surprised if they’re casting jealous glances at the other acts’ full supply of drink tickets.

In the decades between 1880 and 1900, American Indians underwent significant cultural transformations as a result of European settlers who thrust them into reservations and Euro-American customs. During this period, William J. Lenny and William L. Sawyers opened a photo studio in Purcell, Okla., near the reservations, and photographed American Indians in both their traditional dress and the current fashions of the time.read more at austin360.com

Punk has been denying the rumors of its demise since at least 1981, when The Exploited released the seminal Punk’s Not Dead and launched a million backpatches. Since then, the genre, while not dying exactly, has seen its fair share of respirators and bedsores, with aging godfathers gamely trotting themselves out for creaky reunion-tour cash, Johnny Rotten and Henry Rollins turning into reality-TV stars, and snot-nosed ignoramuses forming bands “influenced” by Blink-182. On the 30th anniversary of the year that punk broke, filmmaker Susan Dyner’s exhaustive documentary takes a razorblade to that fat and bloated subject, ripping it up and starting again by interviewing nearly evry band that ever mattered (including members of The Damned, Ramones, Subhumans, Black Flag, Minor Threat, and Dead Kennedys) and combining them with vintage and modern performances for a probing, philosophical look at the punk movement and its sociopolitical context. Far from just another self-congraulatory tribute, Punk’s Not Dead puts the music through the prism of history, giving it life one more time.
