BigBanonos' Favorite Songs by Weird War
Updated 2005 with "See About Me" from Illuminated By The Light. Highlights and #NotOnSpotify picks below:
"See About Me" (2005) - A groovy, swaggering track from Illuminated By The Light, showcasing Weird War’s funky, off-kilter approach to rock. Led by Neil Michael Hagerty (Royal Trux), the band blends sleazy glam with sharp, politically charged lyrics.
Bonus: Joanna Newsom, Smog & Weird War – "Ring The Living Bell" (Live at Bowery Ballroom, 2004)
And thanks to **BigBanonos** and his wonderful uploading, we have one of the best live recordings ever: Joanna Newsom, Smog (Bill Callahan), and Weird War performing a super fun cover of Melanie's *Ring The Living Bell* at the Bowery Ballroom in 2004.
Band Info
Weird War – A continuation of the chaotic, freewheeling energy of Royal Trux and The Make-Up, **Weird War** was formed by **Neil Michael Hagerty, Ian Svenonius, and Michelle Mae**. Their music blends funky rhythms, psychedelic flourishes, and biting social commentary, making them one of the most unpredictable acts of the early 2000s.
