Veteran drummer Bob Bert (Sonic Youth, Pussy Galore, Chrome Cranks, Knoxville Girls, Lydia Lunch Retrovirus, etc.) is releasing his debut solo album, Beach Bongo Bloodbath, on June 12 via Bar/None Records.
The percussion-heavy, no-guitar release features several covers, including "Love Comes in Spurts," originally recorded by Richard Hell and the Voidoids in 1977.
In the video below, Hell, a longtime EV resident, makes an appearance... it also features Mary Hanley of Bunny X.
There's a record release bash at the Bowery Palace on June 15.
