Episode 211 : Nikki Pickle (Frankie & The Witch Fingers)

Episode Summary

Working in graphic design for the internal communications department of Guitar Center, letting it ride, and building around the seed. Nikki Pickle (Frankie & The Witch Fingers, Death Valley Girls) "Frankie and the Witch Fingers have marked their triumphant return with “Bonehead,” their first new offering since last year’s landmark LP Data Doom. The thundering, fuzzy rocker begins with a formidable opening groove that quickly drops into a distorted, double-time cacophony of harmonizing guitars and blistering drums…. Over the past decade Frankie and the Witch Fingers have operated as an outright force of nature, offering up a revelatory form of psych-rock that hits on both a primal and ecstatically mind-bending level. In the making of their new album Data Doom, the Los Angeles-based four-piece forged a sublimely galvanizing sound informed by their love of Afrobeat and proto-punk—a potent vessel for their frenetic meditations on technological change run rampant, encroaching fascism, and corrosive systems of power. Animated by the explosive energy they’ve brought to the stage in sharing bills with such eclectic acts as Ty Segall and ZZ Top, the result is a major leap forward for one of the most adventurous and forward-thinking bands working today."
