Just picked up the new Tennis album that’s out on Fat Possum records and wanted to say it’s pretty good. Full review in the April Beatroute. I guess this single has been out a few months, but it’s top notch and produced by Patrick Carney from the Black Keys to boot! The album came out [...]

I really dropped the ball on Real Estate. I kind of ignored their album “Days”, I’m not a snob, but I’ve kind of been out of it recently, not seeking out new albums as much as I used to. For me, Real Estate had to start at the back of the line, where a number [...]

LA girl band WARPAINT plays their dream pop and has a pretty good time. This was the last band, at the last factory party. My arm was so tired, so this video sucks, but I think you’ll enjoy it. Who thought that a band called Warpaint from Los Angeles would have such a dreamy sound?

-The Famines @ Factory Party #8- So while some DJ spun some remix of some song everyone loves, Garret and Raymond of THE FAMINES wait like jaguars in a tree. They are far too polite of dudes to start out of turn, so while the last beats of the tune fade out, they hit the [...]
