About a week ago I got a fantastic video submission from Chicago band, Filligar. They were kind enough to send along their album ‘The Nerve’ and I’ve listened to it a few times now and can honestly say these guys are one of the best straight up rock acts I’ve gotten to hear in a while. This is what rock & roll is supposed to sound like, its a modern sound paired with that classic rock sound we all love, a re-imagining if you will. Filligar has got a big show this friday in NYC if any of you are…

Blake Mills – Hey Lover :: Invisible Children Holiday Benefit Concert from INVISIBLE CHILDREN on Vimeo. Just caught this off of a post from Rollo Grady, it’s Blake Mills performing live with Taylor and Griffin of Dawes, at the Troubadour for the 2010 Invisible Children Holiday Benefit Concert. Being on the east coast, we’ve yet to see Blake Mills live and I’m totally drooling over this video. It’s awesome to see him play the guitar and I’m loving the slow jam aspect to this track. On the album version it had been a bit faster and heavier. I urge you, yet…
Leave a CommentCheck out the Dodos’ video for Black Night off their recently released album ‘No Color’ which I reviewed a couple of weeks ago. I’ve enjoyed this album and I am eagerly hoping they come to the East Coast (maybe?)

The Dodos will be on tour:
Check out the new track from the Antlers, Parentheses. This one as with a lot of the Antlers’ music is difficult to describe. This has got a more rattly sound that what we heard on Hospice, but their ‘slowcore’ styling and choir like vocals are entrancing. Its a great sounding song, and makes my mouth water at another album of it. Pre-order Burst Apart before it comes out on May 10th.

Bare Wires premiere “Ready To Go” on Altered Zones, a Two and Half Minute romp through 70’s High School parking lot rock. They’ve got a new LP Coming Soon, and are touring extensively throughout North America. Ready to go is a B-Side that certainly doesn’t sound like it should be; it comes off a new 7″ single they are selling here.
Last month, I posted their fantastic video for single ‘Don’t Ever Change‘ on the same 7″
They’ll be taking their lofi garage sound all over in support of their 2010 album ‘Seeking Love’ which is available here
Tour Dates:
The Felice Brothers recently released first track off their new LP ‘Celebration, Florida‘ entitled ‘Ponzi‘. The album will arrive May 10th & the band will be touring this album throughout the summer with Shovels & Rope. Ponzi has a little bit of a different sound from the normal Felice Brothers fare. The sound is a little more full from the normal stripped down nature of their music. Its got a choir background harmony, a smooth bassline, and a very epically big electronic finish (tough to explain…just listen). http://www.thefelicebrothers.com/
