3 OH SO GOOD BANDS //// and they are…
SILK FLOWERS (PPM // Brooklyn, NY) Ridin that dark synth wave straight to your heart, Silk Flowers will get us started on the road to the promised land. Their self titled LP out on PPM is some hot shit, and a favorite of our very own WVKR. every time you hear “Brooklyn three-piece,” you’ll think of them fondly. http://www.myspace.com/silkflowersnyc http://vimeo.com/5548443
KURT VILE & THE VIOLATORS (Matador // Philadelphia, PA) We proudly present “Philly’s Constant Hitmaker,” Kurt Vile, one of the finest songwriters currently gracing the internet (and record stores too, you thieves). AND for this tour he has his trusty Violators alongside to help us remember what rock n roll feels like. In the last 2 years alone, Kurt has put out three fantastic LPs. Check out “Constant Hitmaker,” to get started, and get ready for the new LP “Childish Prodigy” out this fall. http://www.myspace.com/kurtvileofphilly http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAyQ389cwtQ http://pitchfork.com/reviews/tracks/11188-freeway/
INDIAN JEWELRY (We Are Free/Lovepump United // Houston, TX) These cats bring us the stuff of noisy psych-out legend, straight outta texas. Wikipedia calls their live show “seizure-inducing.” They’re stopping at Vassar smack in the middle of their “Live Music” tour, which sees them share the stage w/ Faust and Psychic Ills among others. In the humble opinion of this reporter, they are a huge deal. With any luck, they will blow your fucking mind. http://www.myspace.com/indianjewelry http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AnOzqm0et_s
So there you have it, this is the big one.
