That's all folks. The House Show III, your favorite show that isn't a show and hasn't been at a house in 5 months, is done. We've got the always excellent Pussyviolence and the always on The House Show Mugwump playing a full set at Beerland from a month back. No one fights a bull but it's pretty good. If you don't like us on Facebook already do it here.
God spited and smited us two weeks ago when he took Andie's mac book from this plane of plain existence. With Final Cut blue balls Acolyte is back to cutting with a new machine funded by the entertainment industrial complex and we promise to annoy the shit out of you with annoying and shitty music. First up, the first half of The House Show III.
Shit I wish there was a emoticon for reggaeton horns right now because The House Show DVD anthology has dropped. Happy Valentine's Day. Check out our bigcartel shop here. The DVD comes in two flavors. We've got a high end super limited edition version and a "bootleg," version that features a cheaper (but still hand made and awesome) cover that we plan on churning out as long as there's a demand. Check it:

The DVD features performances from MGWMP, a collaborative set with Breakdancing Ronald Reagan, Body Inflation Sequence, and Glasgow Smile, Jackyls, Mucophagia, Cronophage, Fox Island, and Pussyviolence. It also features an audio commentary with the creators of the show and a trailer for ACOLYTE'S new show APOCALYPSE DOWN. Show your support for local musicians and film makers.
Part III of the house show features Mugwump (with Jeffy from Fox Island on guest vox), who have some shows coming up next week that you should definitely check out. You can also catch a recording of them from Episode I right here. Parts IV and V coming soon.
Merry fucking Christmas. We've got two new videos from Episode II of The House Show for you. First up: Fox Island. Up next in the rotation: Jackyls, who make their second appearance.
I guess we're going for an animal theme.
I don't care if you really wanted a puppy.
The next videos will be up some time after the new year, featuring the second coming of Mugwump and the debut here of Mucophagia and Pussyviolence. We'll also be putting out an anthology DVD with episodes I and II sometime after that. There will be some surprising bonus features on it.
P.S.
The Austinist did a rad write up about us, featuring Fox Island so check that shit out!
Episode one of The House Show is now on DVD. $10 in person, $12.50 shipped anywhere. Limited edition of 13. Plays in an infinite loop for infinite enjoyment and satisfaction. Rattle canned finish so each copy is a unique and special snowflake. We'll be slinging them here tomorrow. Drop us a line at acolytebsa1@gmail.com to score via USPS.
Part II of The House Show features blackened thrash metal band CRONOPHAGE. They're fucking great. You can check them out if you're in the Austin area here ( It's two days before Halloween and ACOLYTE will be there dressed as sexy bees and drinking goats blood ).
Acolyte is proud to present THE HOUSE SHOW, a new series of rock n roll field recordings focusing on bands from Austin and beyond. The first episode was shot at an awesome house party thrown by our buddy Justin, and will be presented in four parts. Each will highlight an individual performer.
First up is JACKYLS: god fearing, ear destroying, weaponized reverb r n' r from the heart of Texas.
Big ups to Justin for hosting an awesome night of music, and to all the performers, especially Chronophage, Breakdancing Reagan, and Mugwump, who will be featured in parts 2-4 (in that order).
