Check your April calendar… anything going on the 11th? Well cross that shit out, cause you’re gonna go see yourself a rock and roll show. The Mystery Lights play at The Shop with Pittsburgh’s own The Nox Boys and Dream Phone.

Somehow I missed this when it came out a few weeks ago. Grimes refers to this as demo-quality, but it sounds just fine to me. At the very least, the video (shot mostly in Japan, China, and Southeast Asia) should ignite some sort of wanderlust in you, which is certainly never a bad thing.
Featuring special guest Macklemore!
Tune into the show tonight, as there’s a special substitute-Jim coming in to play some of his favorite soundtrack music. I’ll also be there playing whatever’s caught my ear this week. Normal time and place, 9PM til midnight on 88.3FM if you’re in the city, or streaming at www.wrct.org anywhere else in the world.
11 minutes well spent, I say.
I was holding off on posting this one cause it seems up Jim’s alley, but now I’m swooping in and putting it up. Loud loud LLLOOOUUUUDDDD pop(pish) punk, shame they’re calling it a day.
Generally speaking, I tend to be drawn to songs about specific places or times far more than, say, songs about some bro who had his heart broken during his sophomore year of college. Maybe that’s why this single by Animal Collective’s Avey Tare clicked with me right away. Or maybe it’s because it brings to mind the solo work of a certain one of his bandmates. Either way, I can’t stop listening.
You might recognize Moses Archuleta from his day job drumming for Deerhunter. Here, his contribution to Geographic North’s “Sketch for Winter” series leads me to believe he might have had more to do with the ambient/stranger parts of Cryptograms and Weird Era Cont. than I originally suspected.
