This month’s Wednesday Night at Kaffee Burger features a pairing of garage fuzz and post-punk riot grrrl rally mixed with synth tones.

This month’s EXBERLINER Wednesdays at the legendary Kaffee Burger feature a pair of acts fond of prowling the limelight of the darkest night, rummaging through your recycling for guitars and the occasional discarded rat.

Mon-Sun from 21:00

    Jimmy Trash and the Gunpowder Temple of Heaven, featuring Australian journalist Jimmy Trash and beatnik DJ Mohair Sam, operate in the sort of hollowed-out cultural garbage can much loved by Berlin since the 1980s, throwing up garage fuzz and decades worth of noise-ridden mondo culture into a rockabilly-deprived world. Their hair is fabulous.

    That said, glaring-lady duo Kool Thing (photo) gives the Trashmen’s tonsures a run for their money with a Youth more Cicconic than Sonic. Layered harmonies, distorted washes of guitar, driving beats and psychedelic synth tones mingle in a post-punk riot grrrl rally, though one with downcast eyes.

    As always, EXBERLINER'S DJ Shiner spins kiddie-Schlager afterward, deep into the daylight.

      I always admire the tastefulness of the exberliner bookings.
