The Burning Nerve Ending Magic Podcast :: A Sun City Girls Story

The Self Portrait Gospel

The world doesn"t necessarily need another podcast, or maybe it does, who"s to say? It"s hard to tell these days, but one thing is for certain: if something is worth doing, it"s worth going all the way. An indescribably specific band and spiritual institution of sound comes to mind that not only deserves a poetic platform to be consistently celebrated but also acknowledged for its atmospheric alchemy, which continues to push the boundaries of music, art, and the cosmic nature of the world.

If Alex Coxen, the madman behind all things Milk Music/Mystic 100's/Graffiti Phallico/Worn Spiral, were alive during te Sun City Girls' radioactive reign on society's senses in the 1980s, his iconic illustrations would have been all over the band's bootlegs, t-shirts, show posters, and other various alchemical artifacts without a doubt. Bridging the gap and endless distance between the parameters of punk and the enlightened ecosystem of the hippie generation, Coxen's influences have connected him

It's hard to say, if at all possible, where the Sun City Girls would be if they hadn't released their groundbreaking self-titled LP on famed Phoenix, Arizona-based label Placebo Records in 1984. As a prolific powerhouse that would later go on to self-release a treasure trove of metaphysical material, the band's harmoniously humble days in the 1980s were marked by their cosmic connection with local hero Tony "Victor" Beram, who attended an open mic a few years before the release of the band's first

Before his long-running career as a legendary stand-up comedian, Neil Hamburger, Gregg Turkington was a prominent fan figure in the highly influential Tempe/Phoenix, Arizona music scene of the 1980s, which ultimately gave birth to such notable acts like the Meat Puppets, Mighty Sphincter, skate punk legends J.F.A. (Jodie Foster's Army), and, of course, the Sun City Girls. As a young teen, Turkington's connection to the Sun City Girls, in particular members, the Bishop brothers, and late drummer

Have you ever wondered about the deranged details and mind-numbing narrative behind the Sun City Girls' infamous comic "The Brothers Uncconected" that was featured alongside the 1992 7-inch "Napolene & Josephine"? If there was some graphic novel, and I do mean graphic, to come out of the collective's consciousness that ultimately demonstrated the poetic possession of demonic dynamics between thought and expression, then maybe we could finally wrap our heads around the freak flag pole that has stood

Together for a short four months in the early 1980s, the band took atmospheric advantage of the time given together by relentlessly recording their feverish findings until the desert moon faded, the spell lifted, and each member moved on to other respective avenues
