noodles - dance or food - it’s all good.
< author: david >Just some things We wanted to hip you to:
Diamond Nights | www.diamond-nights.com
this rock fest is coming Aug. 3rd and you don’t want to miss it. Click Here for all the amazing details. AFTER PARTY @ HELL’S KITCHEN w/ DJs [J-dub] and [Diamond Dave] rock-k-k-in you thru the night!
Herman Dune | www.hermandune.com
a friend on the other side of the country just hipped me to Herman Dune’s new album and I haven’t been able to find it yet but the video is great. Kind of a Belle and Sebastian meets Cornershop. I play it in the late hours and do quite the drunken dance. Oh so much fun. Here is their video for Not On Top.
Babyshambles | www.babyshambles.net
Pete Doherty’s new band isn’t really a secret but his music is hard to come by - you can download a shitload of demos from the babyshambles website, but here is the studio version of Killamangiro - reminds of rockin out when your parents aren’t home and you just can’t explain the broken antique Rayo lamp - “What do you mean it just fell over!”
Bloc Party | www.blocparty.com
we got a new single in for Pioneers and it has 2 acoustic songs “Plans” and “Storm and Stress” - this band is capable of the “mad riot” - I want to see some killer videos from these guys cuz the Banquet video was jus ah-ite.
The Double | www.thedoublethedouble.com
so they are coming in September and this is collectively the third post we have written about them and I am drooling over this shite. Just Listen to it. You really need to pick yo head out da sand now and hear da slang now. (By the way we have M.I.A. matches in the store for giveaway)
Something For Rockets | www.somethingforrockets.com
I don’t know when this band is going to blow up but given the state of music’s open arms to experimentalism, their time to shine is drawing near. Check out their delicious website as I imagine a fall luncheon in Central Park. She tore her dress, what a mess. I must confess… MP3
Mad Hot Ballroom | official site
If you were a fan of Spellbound then this is not to miss - it’s playing at the Naro now so check the showtimes and live a little - my sista saw that shite and said it was mad hot yo!
