That must the indiest channel in the world.
Mainliner, Dan Deacon, TV On the Radio...
Monotonix, Hawnay Troof...
What the fuck is going on?
I don't know!
It's the only clip of Mainliner i've ever seen. Plus they mime along with 'Dirty Water' at the end in the same sort of configuration as the actual Standells in their video:

Some sort of black magic going on here
Um...

Sleater-Kinney, Shellac, Fugazi, Built to Spill, Country Teasers and Sonic Youth have been on it too.
Amazing.

Mainliner are back!!!!!!!1
wooooo
no Nanjo though BUT STILL
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIn7sD5oOqk
UK Tour being booked also. YESS
I saw people talking about Mainliner touring and playing places in the UK
and I'm getting excited!
seems like a Newcastle gig is actually happening!
very exciting. This partial reunion is going to thrash the Black Flag partial reunion things
Such great news!
Shame there's no Nanjo but really pleased that Makoto Kawabata and Koji Shimura are getting a chance to play again - they've hardly done anything since Mainliner broke up
:D
If they start playing Pink Lady Lemonade again i'm going to smash the venue up
mug x 3 you star!
This is the best music news I've heard for ages!
Come on London show...
this new album is proper mint isn't it
the best track might be the cd only bonus one though, whassthatabout
kawabata's guitar playing might be the daftest/most glorious ever. It's like Sonny Sharrock with no notes all the way through the album
New album is so great - literally everything you could have hoped for
Have to admit I was a little bit dubious when I realised that it was the guy from Bo Ningen that was replacing Nanjo (Bo Ningen are great and everything, but, you know) but he slots in perfectly and Shimura and especially Kawabata are just monumental all the way through. The live shows should be something else.
Have you heard the new(ish) Green Flames LP dude? It's the old High Rise line up with Tabata Mitsuru (from Zeni Geva / Acid Mothers Temple & The Cosmic Inferno) replacing Nanjo (like this current version of Mainliner they changed the name of the band out of respect for Nanjo). It's properly great as well - think you'd dig it the most if you haven't heard it already. Someone should definitely arrange a joint tour...
I had no idea about green flames
really love the original high rise stufff, will check it out
yeah I saw them mentioned on Volcanic Tongue
needs to check em out. Weird that High Rise - Nanjo and Mainliner - Nanjo are releasing records at the same time.
Bo Ningen guy is different to Nanjo especially in the way he sings but it definitely works. And that guitar playing is just mad. I don't think anyone else would play in that ridiculous a fashion for an entire album. So good.
Full Mainliner UK tour is going to be announced this week I think
and talking of actual video clips of them playing (original lineup)
