Words by Gordon Lamb and photographs by Mike WhiteBefore we even got within 20 miles of The Eastern, I looked over from the passenger seat and told Mike White, whose photos are all around these words, “You know, there’s just one too many bands on this bill.”And, yeah, I meant Düsseldorf’s Die Krupps.

FRONT PORCH FACTOR: The second single from the upcoming album The Limiting Factor by Hunter Hoskins is out now. The follow-up release to his single from last year, “Nazi Down The Street,” this new track is named “Break Of Day,” and longtime local listeners will find favor with this one. Hoskins’ band on this includes decades-long Athens stars Kevin Lane, Matt Lane, Jay Gonzalez, Brandon Reynolds and Neil Golden.

NO PARKING ON THE DAN’S FLOOR: The only Athens artist you can always rely upon to continue to provide pop-punk anthems to you is Phantom Dan, and he’s just done it again. The brand new track “Maria” came out Apr. 18, and Dan reports that this song, along with the previously released “FANGS,” represents a turning point for this longtime solo project. Both these songs were whole-group compositions, and the project is now much more of a band than a solo outing with selected players.

THE ACTION INDEX: Affectionately, and possibly with tongue in cheek, self-referenced as “5th wave emo,” local band Hambear just released a new four-song EP named Mandible. Before I get into any specific criticism, let it be said that this is the best realized collection of tunes so far from this young combo. Now, even back when it was a brand-new genre, I always had little patience for screamo. That’s mainly because its aggressively willful obscurantism renders any messaging utterly impotent.

Spending the night with Uncle Billy and Aunt Joan. https://t.co/ZBVtoY3SMr

Amazing how I keep paying for premium @AAACares service but it never works. Waiting on a tow which was requested well over an hour ago and zero drivers have called. The chat ppl are nice but damn what am I paying for?! This is just the latest in a long line of AAA disappointment

In case you didn't feel like showing up. https://t.co/MdI3ezc0BU
