Unlike the other one, Bastro, Grubbs wasn't a charter member of Bitch Magnet, nor was he the leader; that duty fell to bassist/vocalist Sooyoung Park. Much like Bastro, however, Bitch Magnet played a blistering and intellectual brand of post-hardcore punk, which often drew comparisons to Steve Albini's Big Black; they were also grouped with a more direct Squirrel Bait descendant, Slint, albeit more relentless and somewhat less nuanced. Sooyoung Park founded Bitch Magnet in 1986 while a student at Oberlin College in Ohio, joining with guitarist Jon Fine and drummer Orestes Delatorre (aka Orestes Morfin); despite their Oberlin roots, the trio was actually based in Chapel Hill, NC. Bitch Magnet signed with the indie label Communion and debuted in 1988 with the Star Booty 12" EP, which was produced by Steve Albini himself and earned the band some notice on the underground rock scene. For the follow-up, 1989's full-length Umber, they added second guitarist David Galt (a later CD issue appended Star Booty as well). Galt's place was taken by David Grubbs later in 1989, and Grubbs toured with the group in between commitments with Bastro. Grubbs appeared on the EP Valmead and on Bitch Magnet's final album, Ben Hur, both issued in 1990. After Bitch Magnet's breakup late that year, all four members went on to other projects: Park formed the acclaimed Seam; Grubbs returned to Bastro, which evolved into the seminal Gastr del Sol; Fine played with Vineland and Don Caballero; and Orestes Morfin resurfaced in Walt Mink. Bitch Magnet's three albums were reissued on November 15, 2011 by Temporary Residence Limited, as a deluxe limited-edition triple-LP set and as a triple CD. The reissues include non-LP tracks and previously unreleased recordings that were remixed with John Congleton in late 2010. http://www.discogs.com/Bitch-Magnet-Bitch-Magnet/release/3274661 KLV is the foreign music division of KALEVALA want us on your secure, non-rented, non-.de/.at/.ch site full of nice ppl and no dickheads? try to get a hold of us on irc... greets fly out to everyone we met over the years and many good grps like: BERC - GREiD - hUSHhUSH - mwnd - soup - SHELTER - FNT rH - GRW - DEF - BCC - DPS - AEROHOLiCS - SiNNERS SAiNTS - Razor1911 - gEm - ss - FiCO - WAGNER BLooDWeiSeR - UKi - FFNDVD - NGP - aAF . ... .. . _ __ __ _ _ __ __ _ . .. ... . : _//\\____ _/\_ ____//\\_ : .....: - -- -------\/--\--_((_oX_))_--/--\/------- -- - :..... : .... .. . \/ _\/_ \/ . .. .... : ..: ....: aBHO _ __\/__ _ -T! :.... :.. . .: ...: . _/\_ . :... :. . : : . ..: :.. .
