Japandroids Exclusive Video – Art Czars
Japandroids’ debut release Post Nothing daftly negotiated through a lush and expansive soundscape of naivety and hopefulness. The theme of growth, gained while emerging from adolescence, is constant throughout the effort. In thirty five minutes Post Nothing manages to capture the sound of youth, love, beer, and a carefree attitude....

Les Savy Fav – Live @ Echoplex 5-9-10

Have a Nice Life – 2/28/10 – The Stone – New York, NY
This is fucking hardcore. Armor pieced together in stolen days and desperate nights. Chinked. Torn. Tatters of the New England winter. Four friends. New mountain men with amplifiers in a room not half the size of them. Their sound is a tower. A wave. A rogue dog with bloodied lips...
Cokie The Clown – SXSW 2010 – Fat Mike
Fat Mike’s ‘Cokie the Clown’ set at South By Southwest 2010 was graphic in nature. The stories Mike told and the things he did at Emo’s Annex during SXSW left me shaking afterward. Damian Abraham, lead singer of the band Fucked Up, later described this Cokie set as the most...
