One of my favorite post-…and Girls Club tunes by Austin’s The Strange Boys.

Not much I need to say here, right? Stone cold classic to kick off your abbreviated workweek.
Show starts at 9 tonight, per usual. Stream it at www.wrct.org.
Really not fair that Slowdive can just disappear for so long, then just magically show up again, still able to do stuff like this.
I actually opened up last week’s show with this one, and this is really just an excuse to post the live video below. My favorite comment on the YouTube link is:
“I talked to John Kunz, owner of Waterloo and co-founder of the Coalition of Independent Music Stores and all he said about this was ‘They caused a lot of damage.'”
Sorry, John. Waterloo Records’ web site can be found here if you feel helping reimbursing him for the band’s theatrics. Regardless, the show looks like it was entertaining as hell.
Leeds’ Hookworms just announced The Hum, their follow up to last year’s Pearl Mystic. If you’re a fan of Destruction Unit/Disappears/Cryptograms-era Deerhunter/etc…, you should really get on this.
Vashti is gearing up to release Heartleap, only her third album in nearly forty years. “Train Song” is a little bit older, originally released as a single in 1966.
Drone on, Thurston. Drone on. For those of you keeping track, Moore’s backing band includes both Steve Shelly (also of SY fame) and MBV’s Debbie Googe. Plus, you know, Thurston fucking Moore. I’m assuming “Forevermore” will be on Moore’s upcoming solo effort, The Best Day, out 10/21 on Matador Records.
Since I can’t compete with the absurdity/epicness of being attacked by a bear, I’ll direct you over to the always-spot-on Aquarium Drunkard blog, where they just posted this mixtape. They describe it as, “a choice selection of primitive sixties garage rock. Our second collaboration with Gothenburg, Sweden DJ/record collector Peer Schouten.” The whole thing can be found here:
