NIGHT OF THE BEATS
We’re sure most of you are already aware that there’s a party going down this Saturday night over at The End, but we’re figuring it’s worth an extra mention. Night Beats are on tour rolling across the nation right now and it’s bringing them to our fair city this weekend. It’s been a nice while…

SLAUGHTER’D
We honestly do our best to try and not gab away about Ty Segall all the time – seriously – but it’s kinda tough since he’s so productive and all over the place. In The Red just unveiled the artwork and some details surrounding the new 2×10″ record coming this June that has Ty doing…
GOT THE DEATH GRIP
We’ve been going through a little Useless Eaters withdrawal lately since Seth’s been out on the road with Heavy Cream and he’s about to pack up again with Peach Kelli Pop, but a couple of new music videos are holding us over until we can get some more Eaters action. The first video [which you…
KNOCK ‘EM DEAD
Tic Tac Totally was a definite contender for Record Label of the Year in the 2k11 – and that was largely in part to releasing the debut OBN IIIs album – The One And Only OBN IIIs. If you haven’t given the record a spin yet – you are highly encouraged to go out and…

THE KIDS GOT CULTURED
One of our favorite shows that went down last year was when San Francisco’s Culture Kids rolled through around Thanksgiving. If you were there, then you probably understand what we’re saying. That shit was brutal and punk and borderline scary – which we really don’t get enough of  around here. On that tour and at…
HAMMER’D AND DRIVER’D
Hammer Screwdriver from London Daily Press on Vimeo. As much as we try and stop them from happening — bad things still happen. Sometimes it’s bad luck, sometimes it’s bad timing, but whatever bad it is – we’ve found that the only thing to really do is keep going and do your best. The friends…
SIC TRONIC
Looks like we weren’t the only ones who fell hard for the recent Tronics reissue from What’s Your Rupture!? [which you can still pick up right here] San Francisco’s Sic Alps have a brand new 4-song EP prepped for release from Drag City called Pangea Globe that has Mike Donovan covering some of Ziro Baby’s DIY pop…
