Half Machine Lip Moves logo with ‘#105’ on it.

We started this show with some new post-punk tracks. That was followed with a set of mostly recent noise rock tracks. The third block started with some new Mortiis and we played some industrial metal tracks. Then we played a set of post-punk and new wave tracks by artists from behind the Iron Curtain, which were left out of last week’s show due to a lack of time. We got weird in the midnight block with a mix of requested stuff and goofy tracks. Then we ended the show with two songs made on the one and only ANS synthesizer.
