Aids Wolf

AIDS Wolf

This freaky looking bunch is called AIDS Wolf and they’re a Canadian noise-rock/punk band coming to Soundlab on Wednesday (March 26). So weird are they (this picture doesn’t even begin to do them justice), it may be best to let their own words describe them: As to their music, AIDS Wolf likes to quote Captain Beefheart and describes the sound as that of “a squid eating dough in a polyethylene bag.” As to their name, AIDS Wolf refers to an urban myth about infected wolves spreading AIDS to household pets, who in turn pass it on to their owners. As to their history, they say “We are a fucking cult and will cause you harm and ill will.” Finally, one of the 9 Principles of AIDS Wolf as posted on their website: “When In Doubt, Bum Them Out.” Sound good? Seriously, don’t believe a word of it—this band is fun. The show starts at 9pm with Science vs. Witchcraft and Cages
