EWB 241 Eugene S. Robinson

Eugene S. Robinson returns! I always look forward to conversations with Eugene; razor sharp wit, funny and verbally engaging, it’s always a good time.   I first was introduced to his work back in the late 90’s, when I discovered Oxbow, a hard-to-classify band that combined razor sharp musical execution, unique vocals, controlled aggression, subtlety and a very cool narrative lyric style. Additionally Eugene is a journalist, author and podcaster whose work has appeared in Vice, Decibel, GQ, Grappling Magazine and a host of others.  He has two published books, “A Long Slow Screw” and “Fight” one of my favorite works about punching people in the face.   If you dig MMA and combat sports tune into his weekly podcast The Show Stomper.   Much to my chagrin, I learned recently that Eugene is also a member of Bunuel, a band that I have been sleeping on  for the past few years.  I fancy myself to be someone who is in the know when it comes to music, but I admit to be a Johnny-come-lately with respect to Bunuel Bunuel, has a brand new record called “Killers Like Us” available now on Profound Lore. Intro:     “River of Night” – composed and recorded by Mike Hill Outro:   “For the Cops” - Bunuel
