Lou Miami Dancing with Death (via MrEdLemos)

Sexton’s been all fired up about discovering Lou Miami & the Kozmetix, Boston punks from about 1980. Miami put out one album and was apparently a great live show. I think the best description I can come up with is that he was an aggressively homosexual punk that was probably a few years too early to catch on.

This video was just uploaded this past month and is new to us - it’s got a great do-it-yourself feel and an appropriate amount of weirdness, especially the Bergman-inspired figures wandering around the cemetery. This is probably his best song; the lyric “i’m dancing with death - don’t look at my face” is great, especially when he’s screaming it at the end. Also appropriate, considering his eventual death by drug overdose.
