Please don’t send messages to that page or try to contact us there. You’ll just be shouting into the silent and indifferent void if you do that.

Half Machine Lip Moves is Back, May 26, 2024
Half Machine Lip Moves is back! Tonight, May 26, 2024 at 10 PM-1 AM Central Time [11 PM-2 AM ET/8-11 PM PT/03:00-06:00 UTC]. We’re starting off with some new darkwave and post-punk tracks. Then we’re doing a tribute to the late Steve Albini (of Big Black, Shellac, and producer/mixer/audio engineer on many releases). This one’s going heavy on the noise rock, no wave, and experimental. Listen at the free worldwide livestream at kuhsradio.

Operator OT Setlist from Club Nevermore, 4/26/2024
I want to say thanks to everybody who braved the elements and came out to Club Nevermore’s fifth-anniversary show on April 26. And I want to thank Clusters of Fornication, Vampire Police, Alien Abstraction, and Summore, and Club Nevermore for having me!
My setlist from that night is below the cut.
We Hit Our Podcast Host Limit
I attempted to upload the next episode of our podcast and got a message from our hosting service telling us that we’re out of space. Many thanks to our current podcast host for the helpful advice that this was about to happen… Oh wait, there was no fucking warning at all that this was about to happen! What this means: the show won’t have a podcast for a while. We’re going to look at the options and figure out how to go forward.
