HP Community Pick is a semi-regular blog series where community members have the chance to highlight a show they’re stoked about. This pick is brought to you by Lav Andula (Experimental Witch House performer and frequent HP volunteering behind the soundboard) on the band LustSickPuppy who performed on Thursday, June 29, 2023 with with Johnnascus and locals Baby Abielle. Read all about it below!
When Lustsickpuppy dropped “Cosmic Brownie” in 2020, my life was changed. Synth stabs, gabber kicks, breath as percussion – along with ambitious, empowering, energetic vocals way more punk than anyone I’ve ever seen wearing a studded jacket and playing a guitar. Lustsickpuppy’s feral beats smacked me in the face and gave me a reason to wake up in the afternoon. Their take-no-sh*t attitude inspired me to know my worth and stand up for myself when I needed to. I’ve crowd killed ghosts in my room and danced til I couldn’t breathe to their online performances during lockdown era. I feel so lucky and I can’t even explain how excited I am to finally see them perform IRL!
