Bonnaroo’s Roo Clue Number 3!
•
Alright Bonnaroo, you finally might have stumped me. I’m positive Clue #1 is Japandroids. I’m pretty sure Clue #2 is Animal Collective. Clue #3, released yesterday, however, has me a bit stumped. If this was The Hobbit, Gollum would be allowed to eat me now (shoutout to my nerds!). (UPDATE: Andrew has a guess that…

The Young Rapscallions, Sol Cat, and The Kingston Springs | Tonight @ The High Watt
•
Hailing from Los Angeles, there’s one thing about The Young Rapscallions that you’ll probably notice right off the bat, so I’ll go ahead and get it out of the way: yes, that’s actor Chris Mintz-Plasse (from Superbad, Role Models, Kick-Ass, etc) on drums. No, this isn’t some Mintz-Plasse vanity project and no, it’s not some attempt for…

Floating Action w/ Natalie Prass & Bryan Cates @ The Stone Fox Tonight.
•
Floating Action, the moniker for the music of outdoor sportsman and red-bearded mountaineer Seth Kaufman, features tunes rooted in adventure, nature, distant travels, biking, snowboarding, and other outdoor endeavors.

Forgetters (Blake Schwarzenbach of Jawbreaker) Coming to Birmingham! | Thursday, 1.10.13
•
This show isn’t until Thursday, but since I’m about to make the case for a 3 hour drive through Alabama, I wanted to give you a couple of days to plan for it. You might remember how much I loved Forgetters‘ self-titled debut LP back in November. At the time, just the record alone…

Rapper Kitty Pryde Descends from the Heartcloud with Her New Single “Dead Island”
•
It’s kind of mind-blowing to think that the bulk of rapper Kitty Pryde‘s career ascent has occurred over only the past 6 months.
