Cloud Nothings - Didn't You 7''

Garage rock wonders Cloud Nothings blew me away with their Record Store Day Performance. They are true rock n rollers. Their album 'Turning On' has been in OA's Albums Always Spinning column almost since this blog came out. It's irresistibly catchy and innocent. They are putting out a new 7'' on Old Flame Records. 'Didn't You' and 'Even If It Worked Out' is the groups best work to date (except for Cant Stay Awake). They use the same successful formula of hooking you in with catchy as fuck riffs and lyrics, jangly guitars, reverb soaked vocals, and killer drums. Their drummer is a bad ass mother who don't give an F about nothin. And wouldn't you know it, you can download the entire thing once your done reading this sentence....butttttt you should own the vinyl.

Girls - Lysandre

Girls are still riding the wave of one of 2009's best albums. 'Album' was the first record I ever bought on vinyl. Here they are with the debut of a new song in Vancoover at the tail end of May. Looks like Chris chopped off his long hair!

Dum Dum Girls 'I Will Be'

The Dum Dum Girls are a indie pop rock group out of LA made up mostly of Kristin Gundred but she has added friends to bring her material to the stage. They have a bunch of tape compliations, but their debut LP  is due out at the end of march via Subpop records. The album leaked on the internet yesterday, and I must say that it's a little more polished then their older lo-fi stuff

Check out their Website or Myspace for more info. They are opening up for Girls April 1st in Boston. I will be there with some pretty cool doods, very exctied.
