UPDATE: 1,000 dead animals found in Montclair commercial building

MONTCLAIR, Calif. (KABC) --

Nearly 2,000 animals, including chickens, exotic birds, fish and snakes, were found inside a Montclair commercial building, police said. Many of the animals were reportedly dead.

Authorities made the discovery in the 4600 block of Arrow Highway while they were serving an arrest warrant on a suspect regarding an unrelated charge.

According to the Inland Valley Humane Society, their agency and the Montclair Police Department were originally called to take two dogs from the suspect.

They responded to the warehouse after hearing noises coming from the industrial complex.

By their estimation, between 1,000 and 2,000 chicks and chickens in addition to 100 exotic birds were being kept in what they called "appalling conditions."

Rescuers could find no food or water for the animals on the building, and there was little ventilation. According to the Humane Society, the warehouse was covered in feces and filled to capacity with trash.

The birds found alive were taken by the Humane Society to be evaluated and will remain there until the investigation is complete.

The owner of the animals now faces felony animal cruelty charges.

Janelane is a 4-piece garage pop band from South Pasadena, California consisting of lead singer/songwriter/rhythm guitarist Sophie Negrini, Shelly Schimeck, Jason Funston, and Timothy Franco. The group's self-described sound is a crossover of "all of the corny, nostalgic Monkees-esque melodies of the late 60's/early 70's combined with your favorite 90's teen romance movie soundtracks". The band's debut EP, "Peaches and Cream", came out on Danger Collective Records in March 2015 via bandcamp and cassette. Janelane just completed a two week tour for South by Southwest this past March and is currently recording their debut LP to be released later this year. Sophie also plays keyboard in punk band Peach Kelli Pop.

This event is all ages

A few years ago, while in a tour van somewhere in Idaho, the members of Chastity Belt—Julia Shapiro, Gretchen Grimm, Lydia Lund, and Annie Truscott—opted to pass the time in a relatively unusual fashion: They collectively paid one another compliments, in great and thoughtful detail. This is what we like best about you, this is why we love you.

I think of that image all the time, the four of them opening themselves up like that, by choice. It’s hard to imagine other bands doing the same. But beyond their troublesome social media presence—see: the abundance of weapons-grade duck face, the rolling suitcase art—and beyond the moonlit deadpan of say, “IDC,” lies, at the very least, an honesty and an intimacy and an emotional brilliance that galvanizes everything they do together. Which is a fancy way of saying: They’re funny, but they’re also capable of being vulnerable. “Giant Vagina” and “Pussy Weed Beer,” two highlights from their aptly titled 2013 debut, No Regerts, were immediately preceded by a sublime yet easily overlooked cut named “Happiness.” I saw a younger, still unsettling version of myself all across 2015’s Time to Go Home.

This June marks the release of I Used to Spend So Much Time Alone, their third and finest full-length to date. Recorded live in July of 2016, with producer Matthew Simms (Wire) at Jackpot! in Portland, Oregon (birthplace of some of their favorite Elliott Smith records), it’s a dark and uncommonly beautiful set of moody post-punk that finds the Seattle outfit’s feelings in full view, unobscured by humor. There is no irony in its title: Before she had Chastity Belt, and the close relationships that she does now, Shapiro considered herself a career loner. That’s no small gesture. I can make as much sense of this music as I can my 20s: This is a brave and often exhilarating tangle of mixed feelings and haunting melodies that connects dizzying anguish (“This Time of Night”) to shimmering insight (“Different Now”) to gauzy ambiguity (“Stuck,” written and sung by Grimm). It’s a serious record but not a serious departure, defined best, perhaps, by a line that Shapiro shares early on its staggering title track: “I wanna be sincere.”

When asked, their only request was that what you’re reading right now be brief, honest, free of hyperbole, and “v chill.” When pressed for more, Truscott said, “Just say that we love each other. Because we do.”

This is who they are, this is why I love them.
—David Bevan, February 2017

“They’re funny, and slightly goofy, and gently vulgar, and they play with an appealingly loose, relaxed confidence.” – Pitchfork

“In between pelvic-thrusting sexual innuendo and self-mockery, Chastity Belt filter feminist theory, cultural commentary and general intellectual bad-assery…Chastity Belt isn’t the band 2013 wants—it’s the band 2013 needs.” – CMJ

“The guitars on this record…have a nice ring to them, like Liz Phair’s recordings.” – NPR
