One comment

Date 4/10/10 & 4/11/10
Location La Zona Rosa
Doors 8pm
Tickets $15 for Sat or Sun

Unless you’re currently brain dead, you better be making a point to go see Yeasayer at one of their much anticipated shows this weekend.  Since I am currently gainfully employed with an early wake up time, I’ll be heading out on Saturday.  Now I know some of you people may be gettin’ all hot for that Vampire Weekend show, but let’s be straight here, Yeasayer is a killer live act you can’t pass up.  Be smart.  Opening support on both nights will be provided by buzz band Javelin.  If I haven’t sold you yet, check out their latest single “Ambling Alp” and tell me that doesn’t do it for ya.

New Tunes from Klaus & Kinski

Leave a comment

You’ve probably never heard of Klaus & Kinski, and that’s okay, as I don’t really think too many people have.  I’ve been tracking the Spanish group since their last album, and now that they’ve got new tunes coming out on their new record, Tierra, Tragalos , I really wanted to share them with you.  If it weren’t for the fact that the band sings in Spanish, you’d probably find them right alongside a group like The Postmarks.  This song is all about not wanting to college, and you should trust us, as RayRay teaches Spanish.

New Tunes from In Tall Buildings

Leave a comment

Erik Hall has had his share in the music biz, playing with NOMO and Saturday Looks Good to Me.  Now, he’s set to release his own album under the name In Tall Buildings, which comes out this week on Whistler Records.  This track sort of has the old feel of Rogue Wave, but you can tell that Hall spends his time dabbling with every instrument possible.  It’s full of layers, but in the sort of way that doesn’t weigh you down. Listen up.

New Music From Maps & Atlases

Leave a comment

I’ve recently really been enjoying this poppy new jam “Solid Ground” from fairly new band Maps & Atlases.  It’s a quick little pop song that’s showing some promise for these up and comers from Chicago.  The first release after signing to Barsuk Records, Perch Patchwork, will be dropping in stores June 29th.  Good times.

New Music From The Oh Sees

Leave a comment

Yesterday P4K alerted us to this sweet new jam “I Was Denied” by San Fran band The Oh Sees.  The track is set to appear on the garage rockers latest LP Weird Slime, set for release May 11th via In The Red Records.  Maybe this effort will finally earn the veteran band some well overdue fame?  Only time will tell my friends.  I’ll keep giving them spins regardless.

New Tunes from Blank Dogs

Leave a comment

Blank Dogs is the project of Mike Sniper, and while much is unknown, the guy likes to put out a fair amount of material.  Speaking of new material, he’s got a new 12″ coming out titled Phrases, which should be in stores real soon (slow vinyl production) according to Captured Tracks.  Having listened to several tracks, the vocals are a little bit more clear than they were on Under and Under, his last full-length.  This tune shows Blank Dogs delving into the darkness of nostalgic dance pop, with a touch of oddball artistry. It takes a bit to kick in completely, so stay with it.
