Clock-Out Lounge Presents:  Hunx and His Punx  w/ special guest Slippers   Wednesday June 10th 8pm doors 21+  $27.50 adv/ $30 dos  https://hunxandhispunx.bandcamp.com/album/walk-out-on-this-world-2 Hunx and His Punx are a California band featuring Seth Bogart, Shannon Shaw and Erin Emslie. Since they got back together in 2019 it seemed like teenage dreams were coming true. First they played John Waters’ birthday party, then they toured with Bikini Kill, got to open for The B-52s at their favorite festival and started recording their first album since 2013. They never would have guessed that it would end up taking 5 years to complete. Or that they would soon be going through some very brutal times - a tragic death, a global pandemic and being impacted of one by one of California’s worst wildfires in history. Which brings us to NOW. Now is finally the time, On August 22, 2025, Hunx and His Punx will officially release their first album in 12 years, Walk Out On This World. It’s their first with Get Better Records, a label the band is excited to be working with due to their focus on queer and trans artists. Between 2010 and 2013, Hunx and His Punx released 3 albums - Gay Singles, Too Young To Be in Love and Street Punk, on Hardly Art and True Panther Sounds. They were celebrated and often associated with the queer core, punk and “garage rock” music worlds. From 2014-2019 they took a 5 year hiatus. Seth got really busy with visual art and recorded some solo albums. Shannon was equally as busy with her band Shannon & The Clams and releasing her first solo record. Now they have finally returned with their fourth album, Walk Out On This World. The end of the world is near and it’s filled with wild boys, rainy days, bad thoughts, death and grief, white lipstick, and doing acid alone in Hollywood. “If it’s the end of the world, I want to have some fun”. These definitely feel like end times. And no one knows better than this band, that for every tear you shed, you must laugh twice as hard and you will eventually be OK. https://slipperssss.bandcamp.com/music Slippers mastermind Madeline BB’s new record is a masterpiece. Like if you painted the beatles with a rattle can and wax pencil. Slippers’ last record was entitled “Do You Like Slippers?” More aptly it should have been “Do You Like Pop Music?” Because if the answer is no to either then what are we even doing here? In addition to being a longtime drummer who also performs in Le Pain and has previously played in Yucky Duster, BB’s other passion is animation, and the start of Slippers coincides with her time studying that trade in grad school at California Institute of the Arts. The band began in earnest in BB’s current home of Los Angeles but her love of animation and music go back to her childhood in Atlanta, Georgia. Powerhouse of pop, this Karen Carpenter incarnate is fresh off opening slots for The Lemon Twigs, Snocaps, and a rough trade exclusive 7" If you aren't humming this after two listens are you even alive? Dancing in the Street.
