BRINGING IT ALL BACK HOME
William Tyler has been Nashville’s favorite son for some time now. Of course he played in Lamchop and Silver Jews, but that’s not even really “that shit” when you’re talking about Willy T. When it comes to “that shit,” nothing tops his solo debut from a few years ago, Behold the Spirit. Beautiful, original, and true…
THE SECOND DANISH INVASION
Fun Fact: Christopher Columbus didn’t discover America, the Vikings did.* It’s been a millennium and a dozen since they’ve graced our shores with battle-axes and blonde hair, but they’re finally back! We haven’t talked about them before, but errbody who’s hip to the current jive has known about Copenhagen’s Iceage for the past couple years…
HANGOVER HANGOUT

As you can imagine, Ben’s presence will be especially missed here around Deadquarters. We’re all at a loss for words and still trying to figure…
WAY I WANT TO BE

Since the band’s inception back in 2003, we’ve witnessed the transformation and growth from noisy electronic-ish jams to warmer Spaceman…
SOUTHERN GNAR
A couple of our favorite local bands are about to hit the road together and if you live in the southeasterly United States, they’re probably coming to a town near you. Really though – packing 20+ shows into 8 southern states is a pretty hard thing to do. You can click way down there to…
