RON SWARNER: MUSIC AND ART IN WRIGHT PARK PRIMER >>>
Tomorrow, Music and Art in Wright Park 2009, which began in 1993 as Music in the Park, returns to Tacoma â€" showcasing some of the best bands in the area, including Guns & Rossetti, Girl Trouble, Post Stardom Depression, Broken Oars, The Plastards, James Hilborne and the Painkillers, Zeke, C.F.A., Zook, Stone Axe, Starstruck, Tarek Wegner, Tallest Tree, The Coloffs, NeutralBoy, and Mico De Noche. Tomorrow's outdoor concert at Wright Park will be free.
As a sponsor of Music and Art in Wright Park, the Weekly Volcano has highlighted a band or two every day until tomorrow's show, which will run noon to 8 p.m.
Today’s Music and Art in Wright Park band I'm pushing on you is Zeke.“Sure, I could tell you about Zeke’s relentlessly high octane live show, and offer my own two cents on why they’re so good â€" but who would really care?†Matt Driscoll wrote in the Weekly Volcano in December 2003. “Sure, I could point out Zeke’s unique mix of metal and punk, interbred and homogenized at breakneck speeds, creating a crazed and frothing noise that’s both beautiful and revolting â€" but why? You already know about it.â€
You should know all about this band. They released their first single, "West Seattle Acid Party," in 1993, the same year Music in the Park was born in Wright Park. They have dropped more than 12 albums and countless compilations.
Zeke is one of the fastest punk bands you will ever hear. With their love of Sabbath and KISS prominently worn on their sleeves and playing at a breakneck clip, Zeke is hard to classify. Instead, here’s a taste of the musical stylings of Zeke:
