Trotsky Icepick story at Blurt

I had nothing to do with this, but, very cool, Blurt has a feature up now about the L.A. punk band Trotsky Icepick, who fell at the more melodic end of the SST spectrum and shared members with the Urinals. I got lured into the whole Trotsky Icepick experience a year or so ago on YoungMossTongue, mostly on the strength of the name, but damn, what a band.

Anyway, they're reuniting now...read all about it here.

Thanks for the kind words, Jennifer. Trotsky is indeed reunited and working on new material (and playing some of the old stuff, too). We have a Facebook page that we use to post videos and news and the other usual baloney that bands post. All 3 or the original members are involved, as are John Talley-Jones from The Urinals (and Trotsky) and Tom Hofer from The Leaving Trains.
