The dirty, fi lthy garage scene is back in style, and there ain’t nothing quite so fi ne. Since grunge died out and douche-rock kicked in, it’s been a desert out there.

It’s crunchy, lo-fi pop, rock ‘n’ roll with teeth, and Eugene could use more of it. That’s why it’s so exciting that Paper Moon Photo Studio & Gallery is hosting not only King Tuff this week, but also The Spyrals — a super group featuring members of Thee Oh Sees and Ty Segall.
