Here is some sweet footage from the 2008 Ingenuity Festival. 9-Volt Haunted House were invited to perform on the All Go Signs alley stage. Many thanks to GAMERA THE INVINCIBLE and Lou Muenz for the great film work!
Also thanks to Chuck Karnak for facilitating our appearance at this fantastic event.
Cheers unto them!

I stumbled upon some photos I took a few years back.  These were from a show that Frass Accolades played at Tower 2012, also on the bill were Dead Peasant Insurance and Abiku.  I have fond memories of playing at this space with both Frass Accolades and 9-Volt Haunted House.  I have not heard about much activity at this space or many others in recent history.  Tremont has a void now without the Language Foundry.  All Go Factory is doing things and I look forward to future events there.  Never attended any shows at the “Pink House” in Lakewood.  Church of Ayler is long gone along with its predecessors.  It is wonderful when these spots turn up, tune out and reach their zenith.  Maybe we can call this critical mass.  They fizzle and fade.  We can all hold out breath I suppose for whatever happens next…

Looking forward!

what is 9VHH up to?

what is 9VHH up to?















I recently received a new batch of photos that have accumulated over several years (approx. 05-08). Lisa continues to be a proponent of many artists in the Greater Cleveland area.
These pictures include C. Randolph C., 9-Volt Haunted House and Frass Accolades, at various venues past and present. They include: Now That’s Class, Language Foundry, RR house party, Mocha Dreams Rocky River, Parish Hall, Town Hall Chagrin Falls and Verlie’s. The drummer pictured is Jonathan Hansen of Bling Kong sitting in with us. Enjoy!

I discovered an online article from the Oberlin Review where the 9-Volt Haunted House was name-dropped. Check it out, it’s from 2006. Those were the good ol’ days when DIY spaces were more abundant in Cleveland, or not. I miss the Inside Outside Gallery very much, good timez there!

Current mood: blustery
Category: Music

Out for drinks at Great Lakes Brewery with some old friends earlier in the evening to celebrate the completion and imminent release of the Impact;Woven (that semi-colon is for real, people) project CD that’s been in the making since Thanksgiving ‘05. Wow.

About 12 o’clock I kidnapped Mike and Dan and took them to Now That’s Class–a bit of culture shock for them perhaps, but ultimately I think that’s exactly what they needed.

Missed out on the Dead Peasant Insurance last-minute fill-in. Always seem to just miss any show Ryan K is playing. It’s not intentional. Just bad timing. Chief Bromide had probably just gotten onstage, so we got our refreshments and headed into the music room (head-bustin’ loud, as always). They had a mood going there–dark blue lighting and dark downer psych.

That’s a damn fine mood to be in.

I’ve seen Matt Valerino play with lots of different bands over the past few years, but this is the first time I’ve seen Chief Bromide, and I’m pretty sure that’s “his” band moreso than any of the others. If not then he should just say it is, because Chief Bromide is hands down heads above anything else he’s associated with. First off, there’s actual songs (though of course we’re talking about Now That’s Class, so no one could hear any vocals). Good old song structure…nice to have that every once in awhile.

Matt traded riffs with a lovely young lady on a red guitar and another lovely young lady on a low-end heavy keyboard (no electric bass, very much like another Cleveland indie-psych band–guess who?). She also played electric violin once or twice. Drummer was great, spot-on, power when required. The tunes sucked me in immediately–yeah, you could say I’m down with that psychedelic drone-swirl stuff. I don’t care if it’s been done a million times before, or that they jam on two chords like VU for 10 minutes at a time. There’s enough changes and enough going on with the drums to keep one engaged, if one pays attention to subtlety. I get off on subtlety. Don’t like being bludgeoned over the head.

Unless it’s 9VHH doing the bludgeoning. Which they did. They brought out the heavy artillery for this here slugfest, they brought out some f—ing attitude (that’s not far below the surface for Craig, I’m thinkin’), they brought out a cool Vox guitar (Matt) and they brought out a busted-in-half Strat (Craig), and yes, of course, they brought out a trash can. What 9V show would be complete with some sort of reference to garbage?

Yeah, I don’t what the fellas was drinking or eating, but they was filled with ANGST last night, and the music came screaming out with teeth bared and fists pumping too. Beats were fractured and broken, sonic shards of glass shredding tender ear canals (bring your earplugs, dummies). Craig hit the broken Strat pickups (no neck, just a body) with a drumstick or other implement, and he weren’t f—ing around, man he was beating that poor bastard. Matt’s keyboard was getting tossed around (pretty sure that was a cheapie, not the good one) and then he proceeded to abuse that Vox (Now That’s a Crying Shame) and then he got rough with the trash can and I think the Vox ended up in the trash can.

F—in’ yikes! The whole set lasted maybe 15 minutes, and everyone wanted more, but Craig looked like he just went 15 rounds with, uhh, some big boxer guy (yeah…I don’t follow boxing, so that simile loses), drenched in sweat, so that was it.

“It’s fun to have fun.”

And the related photos are by the Animographer and Laura the Red!
Cheers!
