HEADBANGER’S BALL
The Gnarwhal guys are about to hit the road again. Hopefully you caught them the other night over at The End with CAVE and Leather Nightmare and Mom & Dad — because, if you didn’t, you’ll have to wait ’til November for your next chance to catch them in the Nashy. They’re kicking it off…
OH TOTAL CONTROL
See – as soon as we bring up the idea that Thee Oh Sees haven’t released their normal quota of records this year – they announce a new single and a new LP and now a new tour-split LP. Yep. Dwyer’s Castle Face Records will be releasing a split 12″ for Thee Oh Sees and…
DIARRHEA NATION
Sorry for that title up there. We’re sure it left a pretty vile image in your head as opposed to getting you stoked for another Diarrhea Planet tour, but whatever. We’re still clocked in at a little under a month since their album Loose Jewels came out [which you can still snag from Infinity Cat]…
MIEUX QUE DE BIEN
It’s very likely this year that we’ll have multiple Useless Eaters records in our top tens. Really doubt anyone will come close to being nearly as productive at Seth Sutton has — 4 LPs in one year, 3 singles, a couple new bands to play in [Feral Beat, Heavy Cream] and probably more. His latest…
BUILD A CREAM ON
Few debut singles have come out this year that we think are as impressive as Creamers’ debut on Jolly Dream Records [also the label’s debut release] You may remember us gushing about it a while ago.

END IN SIGHT
The last time our buddies CAVE came to town it was back in June at The End with a short-notice cancellation from Mr. Quintron [it’s ok though, Quintron can do what he wants he’s the boss] They’ll be rolling back through this week fresh off the release of their new LP, Neverendless, from Drag City…

JUST A FRIENDLY REMINDER
Don’t forget! Tonight is the night! Last time we got to see JEFF play on television was when they were on public access a couple years ago. They’ll be hitting the national airwaves tonight on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. What song do you think they’ll play? Beastmaster 420? No. Cancer Killer? No. Noo Sixties?…
MIDWESTERN FLOWER
Finally getting a little taste of what’s to come from Dead Luke’s new LP, Meanwhile… In The Midwest, and it has us really really excited. We dug hard on last year’s American Haircut — but this one has Dead Luke sounding clearer than we’ve heard him before and you can check it for yourself below….
