Another Quarantine Video: Octopus

Yeah, well, we still haven’t figured out how to make a livestream video sound okay but we’re working on it. Meanwhile, we recorded this video last night using a drum loop from the demo session. This is legitimately us though and not robots. Sound is, eh, fine. It's fine. Stay safe and wash those paws! Octopus by After-Death Plan Another sad one brought by the sad tide that is my wasted sea Nature makes a bloom of just the right reach for the long-necked insect to feed An

20-yr-old Mal VU recording of Black Swan on Bandcamp

It’s the 20th anniversary of this Mal VU recording of Black Swan. The text is from an opera by Carlo Menotti about a fictive medium who makes her living pretending to contact the dead. During a fake seance, she feels a spectral hand gripping her throat and freaks out. She blames the mute servant boy (don’t we all?) who wasn’t even in the room. Her daughter calms her down by singing this super creepy, Jungian, Wagnerian, dark mythic lullaby. I'd sung this aria while studying v

Essentially Pop reviews Psycho Social Sexual

Enormous thanks to Matt Catchpole and Essentially Pop for taking the time to listen and to write this great review. We're big Peter Gabriel fans (and PJ and The Kills). It means a lot to reach listeners that would find common threads to these particular artists. Here's the review: BODY TALK – Ohio’s After Death Plan Release Follow Up To Debut Album ‘Literature’ Their first album was 20 years in the making, but US duo After Death Plan have wasted no time in coming up with a fo

Stereo Stickman reviews the ADP song Neil Harvey

"A stylish fusion of classic rock theatrics and grunge-inspired indie fuzz make up the audio experience that is Neil Harvey. Complete with a complex and captivating story-line, the song grows more and more fascinating as it progresses. Dashes of anthem-like togetherness flicker in and out of view, meanwhile the leading vocalist pours absolutely everything into the art of performance – a multi-layered, meandering melody-line suits the constantly evolving details and the growin

Starlight video screens at Gateway Film Center

Gateway is an independent nonprofit movie theater here that finds the best in indie and arthouse film to screen. We go here a lot and rely on them to keep us current on the film industry.

Columbus Underground premieres the music video for Walking

Kill The Music Unsigned Spotlight: After-Death Plan

For starters, what bands were you guys a part of prior to After Death Plan? How long has the band been around? I’ve been in bands since the late 80s. Most notably Our Flesh Party, Salt Horse, and currently Earwig. After-Death Plan is an organic offshoot of Lesley’s music collaborative, Mal VU, from her time in Chicago in the 90s and oughts. We liked each other’s approach to songwriting so much that we made ourselves an official band somewhere around 2012. What’s the origin

Music Video for Starlight by After-Death Plan

In light of last night's snow spanking, tomorrow's holiday, and the fact that we are careworn from pitching/promoting and ready to make more songs, we impulsively release the video for the song Starlight from the album Psycho Social Sexual. Starlight is a torch tribute to women of the golden era and past generations. A video with ritual burning and the evocation of the inner goddess or internal strength. Produced and Created by Lesley Ann Fogle and Constantine Hondroulis Movi
