Weekends:

Sunday, July 11th, 2010

Weekends has a three with Lightning Bolt and Japandroids and things get saucy. Huge tracks with in your g-r-i-l-l face melters and echoed out vocals. Would have liked to hear some more bombastic drumming but hey, I’ll defiantly take what I’m given. Each of these songs are from a different Weekends release but make sure to check out their up and coming album this summer.

Weekends – Psychedelic Mice

Weekends – Raingirls (short)

Weekends – UMBC

Thee Oh Sees:

Sunday, May 30th, 2010

Opening your album with a 14 minute song that takes up the entire first side of a 12″ vinyl seems quite ballsy, but if there’s balls in Orange County, Thee Oh See’s have got ‘em. The first track Warm Slime is far beyond what I could have expected, fuzzed out almost past audio recognition building a repetitive chorus of “I believe in the summer time…” which probably takes up 3/4 of the song. Declining and building again in an almost post-rock fashion. But hold fast avid reader, by no means does this every get boring or tedious. More so it feels like your brain is bursting from the inside out. The entire album, as short as it is, is a constant blitz of insanely catchy psych-thrash. Incredibly noisy in a way that makes the geese under your skin stand up, dance and die.  Driving, like a Camero barreling down Hi-way 66. Enchanting like some fucked up voodoo you cant quite grasp. Dig these mp3′s below but do yourself a favor and pick up the clear and orange marbled vinyl, it’s super cheap and needs to heard in that format.

Fair Ohs:

Monday, May 24th, 2010

Fair Ohs are a quirky and jangly english indie punk gem. Picking up more steam than Thomas Newcomen’s first engine. It’s like being at the beach and rinding the Eye of London at the same time, half cut and having the time of your life.

fair ohs – hey lizzy

Almonds, Cohen:

Monday, May 10th, 2010

Brock used to play in a small band called The Cosmetics in early 2005, I remember fondly. Those where the days of my heavy fructose consumption. The streets ran red with fruit punch. A greasy teenager does a darkslide down a gnarly rail. At a underground venue called The Grid in tiny Courtney B.C I would assume many people where on shrooms. A standout moment may have been The Cosmetics playing a cover of Kaos’s “Crab Bucket”. Brock then played in the Victoria death metal band ,Colourbook for a few years. During this time I imagine Almonds, Cohen was formed out of a need to sometimes, play something a little more rag time. He tell’s me that his band of Baker Street boys could be playing shows in toronto in the near future. Maybe with some favourite like Slam Dunk, or maybe some sort of kissing vhs tape. All in all Almonds, Cohen is best served with a mug of steaming chamomile and some Roozbeh for good measure.

Almonds, Cohen – Backgammon
