Skeleton Premiere “Dystroy” at Austin Chronicle

Skeleton Dystroys

New EP precedes transformation into… metal

Following a pair of ferocious flexi discs, Skeleton returns with its third self-titled release in as many years: a pummeling, four-song 7-inch that arc welds menacing hardcore punk with D-beat, sludge, and metal influences.

The Austin trio, whose medieval imagery signifies a blunt force approach to music, cut the EP with homegrown DIY visionary Orville Bateman Neeley III (OBN IIIsBad Sports) at the controls.

“About eight years ago, a friend took me to see A Giant Dog play at the old Emo’s,” says Skeleton singer/drummer Victor Ziolkowski(PlaxNosferatuEnemy One), who plays alongside his brother, guitarist David Ziolkowski (ArmyResidual Kid), and bassist Alex Recide (NosferatuRecide). “I looked at Orville as being one of the only drummers I enjoyed watching in that whole realm of music. He hit hard and he was so solid. He recorded our first flexi, as well as an Impalers record I like, and I like the sound he got, so it made sense to go back.”

Ziolkowski confirms that after this, Skeleton will make an about-face and become a metal band.

“We want to stair-step into metal,” he says. “We’re already recording an LP that isn’t going to have a punk sound at all.”

Thus, enjoy their bulldozer punk in the short term. Today’s song premiere, “Dystroy,” blasts forth a breakneck beat, roaring vocals, and a prominent two-note, string-bending guitar riff that serves as the song’s hook. Skeleton’s first circular effort (the flexis are square) arrives via Super Secret Records June 30. You can pre-order it here and see Skeleton in action on that same date at Barracuda with WebbbEnemy One, and Filthy.

There was mayhem aplenty as Plax thumped Liverpool’s Bagelry and Getintothis’ Warren Millar was right in the thick of it.

Texas based garage punk band PLAX hit Liverpool Tuesday night playing at The Bagelry in Nelson Street, as part of their three week, and first, European Tour. And how they hit it. Hard.

Supported by Mincemeat and OHMNS, this was one treat of a line up. Just the sort of thing to get the Getintothis’ juices flowing.

It’s a small venue but there were big vibes. It looked like this was going to be a great night. And  so it proved to be. Even the pouring down rain in the shadow of the Chinese Arch on Nelson Street didn’t seem to dampen the spirits of the faithful who turned up.

Mincemeat opened the night in good form, even clearing a space on the small but packed floor for a jump off the table mid set. They call themselves a punk / techno band and we think they’re going places.

Next up where OHMNS, who rocked the place. They do what they do and regular readers will be familiar with their lack of respect for, well pretty much anything, really They set the night up nicely for Plax, who brought a similar attitude to the proceedings.

Plax then gave everyone a real high energy punk performance with lead singer Victor Ziolkowski getting the small venue really bouncing and lead guitar Samantha Wendel laying down some great punk riffs.

So although the venue was small and not really a true music venue this seemed to fit the style really well. As it should be with punk, raw and in your face sort of DIY sounds. A wicked night all round.

Plax is a new Austin band that shares members with a few veterans of the local punk underground: OBN III’s, Spray Paint, Dikes of Holland, and more. Their debut album, Clean Feeling, sounds lived-in too, despite the band’s young age. Singer Victor Ziolkowski–who can also be seen playing drums with Austin rockabilly queen Rosie Flores–is a gravel-throated force at the center of the Plax’s tightly-coiled songs. Despite the punk pedigree, Plax is a sharper band instead of an overwhelming one. “Boring Story” is quick and incisive, scratchy and catchy. It has the sound of a young band that knows exactly what it wants to do.

“Boring Story” appears on Clean Feelingout now via Austin’s Super Secret Records.

Supergroup. That overused term undermines the reality that most new local acts enter the scene already carrying a substantial pedigree. Plax’s Venn diagram touches important homegrown bands: OBN IIIsSpray PaintSkeleton, and Crooked Bangs to name several.

Frontman Victor Ziolkowski, 25, proved mellow and polite on the phone in contrast to his unhinged stage presence.

Austin Chronicle: How did Plax come together?

Victor ZiolkowskiChris [Stephenson] from Spray Paint and Michael [Goodwin] and Marley [Jones] from OBN IIIs had been getting together. They had an idea for a sound and about six songs already formed when they asked me to try some vocals. It’s funny because Michael described the band to me by listing some of their influences and I wasn’t familiar with any of them.

So it was me hearing what they’d already formed and doing what I do on top of it. I appreciate all the guys for having the vision, putting all the work in, then giving me an opportunity to try something new. They’ve made a sound that’s unique and not easy to pinpoint. That’s what I always set out to do.

Drums have been my primary instrument. I front the band Skeleton, but this has been a different approach because I didn’t write the music. Michael gave me some pages out of his journals, stream of consciousness writing, and said, “If you want some ideas, you can just sing these lines.” I used them as random lyric ideas, then found themes or a story and went from there.

This band’s opened doors to how I write and has been very welcoming in letting me do whatever I want to with the vocals.

AC: On Clean Feeling, I hear elements of all the members’ other work: nervy sounds from Spray Paint, tough rock & roll of OBN IIIs, and the DIY hardcore you’ve created in Skeleton.

VZ: Originally, a lot of Euro post-punk references were being tossed around by the band. Then it formed into something really their own. Bringing me in without much of an idea of what they were going for probably gave it a different spin. I often question if my part of the band is what everybody envisioned, but they’ve been very open and into letting it become its own thing.

AC: You’re a young guy, but you have a long history and lineage in Austin music beginning with your father.

VZ: Well my dad [bassist Vic Gerard] has been a longtime member of the Austin music scene for sure. He got me my first drum kit, a miniature set, when I was 2 and my parents put sticks in my hands. I would go to all my dad’s shows in bands like Two Hoots & a Holler, the DerailersChaparral. He’s brought me up as a working musician in town. You can see him playing almost every night of the week with someone. That was my introduction, growing up in this roots rock, country Austin music scene.

I had my first band at 8 with Misspent Youth and Margaret Moser and the Chronicle played a huge part in keeping that band going. I’d really like to recognize her for supporting the path of me and my little brother [David Ziolkowski]. He and I, growing up, would play any instrument together around the house. Later, we did that in bands. There’s been at least one band where we each played every instrument. I think all the time how fortunate I was to grow up in Austin and what a special town it is for music.

AC: What does your dad think of you in the role of growling punk rock frontman?

VZ: [laughs] I think maybe it took him a little bit to come around. I don’t know it’s the path he necessarily envisioned, but he’s always encouraged me to write my own music, so I think he’s happy I’m doing my own thing – carving my own path out.

Something that’s funny is how I have two sides to what I’m often doing. I have my bands that are more in this punk vein, then the next night I’ll get hired to play rockabilly drums with Rosie Flores or someone like that. I feel like I get thrown back and forth between different worlds.

AC: Many musicians here can’t see past their own scene. Most people who play at Hotel Vegas have no appreciation for what’s going on at the Continental Club and vice versa, but they’re both equally important.

VZ: In Austin there’s so much going on that every night of the week you can see something awesome if you’re open to it. Some people like to stay closed in the world that they know. That’s something I’m looking to explore more, branching out into different styles, genres, and scenes, and working to bring them together.

AC: I look forward to the DJ Victor EDM set.

VZ: That may be sooner than you think!

AC: What’s coming up for Plax?

VZ: We have a three-week European tour coming up and a release/tour kickoff August 18 at BarracudaSamantha Wendel from Crooked Bangs is playing guitar for us now [since Stephenson moved to Australia]. I can’t stress how thankful we are to Richard Lynn and Super Secret Records for putting out our record. They’re a very supportive label that’s made things possible for us and a lot of bands in town. We’re stoked to be on a local label as well.
