The Mallard (confessed friend and confidante) is steadily moving towards a Castle Face release of their first album YES ON BLOOD, and the tracks are slowly sliding on to the internet. "Vines", a long time staple of The Mallard's downright stellar live show is the latest and it lives up to the sonic squalor Greer McGettrick and [...]
If I can speak in broad blanket statements for a moment, I believe that San Francisco is putting out the best music of any scene in the country right now. I know, I know, you're reading a Seattle-based blog, and I certainly know, my bias is completely out of control as I wake and live [...]
Burnt Ones recently sent over this video for their original holiday instrumental, "This Christmas (Bury Me In Snow)." The song was written for The Holidays Don't Have To Be So Rotten: Volume Two , a benefit compilation released by Flannelgraph Records . Proceeds benefit Stepping Stones , a Bloomington nonprofit that provides "transitional housing and supportive services to youth between the ages of 16-20 experiencing homelessness." Stream the 23-track collection, which includes songs by Dirty Beaches, Candy Claws and more, below: The Holidays Don't Have To [...]
Manatee reminds me that sometimes the cyclical nature of the world doesn't just bring hardened pieces of poo back to the surface. That sometimes in our cannibalistic musical society a band emerges that actually takes the influences of the past and does something absolutely awesome with it. Manatee makes me think of the punk rock [...]

On Saturday, December 3rd, we'll be at The Verdi Club , for performances by Weekend , Sleepy Sun , Extra Classic , and Terry Malts , and unlimited local craft beer samplings from 21st Amendment , Anchor Steam , Beach Chalet , Drake's Brewing , Lagunitas [...]
Sunset Hill Bury Me In Smoke San Francisco's Burnt Ones pull from glam, psych, garage, surf and a tinge of girl pop. Sound impossible? Sound like much? It might seem so, but these San Franciscans are far from bad. They released the All Night Long EP in April of last year and followed it up with their debut LP, Black Teeth & Golden Tongues ( buy ) from Roaring Colonel Records , which has just recently [...]
Not to pop my own Dracula collar, but I thought last year's Halloween Mixtape was quite solid, from the movies quoted to the sequencing. Not wanting to disappoint my newfound tradition, I felt a little daunted this year... Thanks to a long night and two full bags of candy, I've put together my finest collection of Hallowe'en anthems yet, primed for later tonight or the weekend, wether you're prepping your gory zombie costume or drinking Four Loko to feel like an actual zombie. Citizen Insane's Halloween Mix [...]

I've always thought that the original version of "Money (That's What I Want)" was lacking in something. It's a song almost entirely about being a greedy prick. Take any prior version - the Barrett Strong original, The Beatles catchy hit, etc. - and what you have is songs about capitalist fantasy without the grit-filled smile [...]
Let me pull the curtain back from the magic show for a moment. When it comes to music and me passing music on to you, I'm less a bold explorer and more an aggregator. I'm internet obsessive. My girlfriend, sweet patient woman that she is, has to pull me back from the webs more times [...]
If you're anything like me, you know how difficult it can be to keep track of all of the new music that's constantly floating around the Internet. Here's our latest month-in-review mix collecting some our favorite new (or new to us) songs recently posted on the website. Gathered in the mix are eighteen (!) new tracks that were posted on TheBayBridged.com in September, with links below to download each of them individually.

Another week, another mess of videos. - Burnt Ones - Bury Me In Smoke from LaundroMatinee on Vimeo. Burnt Ones are on non-stop repeat in all facets of my life right now. This is an old video pre-SXSW, but "Bury Me In Smoke" is circling the top of my pile for favorite song of the year right [...]
Burnt Ones are very quickly becoming my favorite new band in San Francisco. Know this now: they sound like T-Rex - big, ballsy, beautiful T-Rex but injected with a penchant for even harder rocking and noisier layers. Know that and then forget it. Just dive in and let the throbbing guitars and intertwining melodies wash [...]
Burnt Ones are heading out on a West Coast tour with Cosmonauts , their SoCal-based Burger Records labelmates. This includes two upcoming local shows: September 22nd with the Younger Lovers at Sugar Mountain , and September 28th with Lilac at Engine Works . Burnt Ones - "Do the Spell" The Engine Works show also serves as a release show for Burnt Ones' new tape, out via Burger Records. The tape includes the band's LP, plus the songs from their 73 releases and [...]
Tweet It's not an official video but instead Burnt Ones lead singer Mark running through this new song on his own. It's the first new music we've heard from the Indianapolis/San Francisco-based band since last year's excellent debut album "Black Teeth & Golden Tongues" .

Here's a stripped down video performance of an unreleased song from SF's Burnt Ones . On Facebook, the band promises a cassette and at least one new 73, both "coming soon," as well as a forthcoming West Coast tour. Before that, though, Burnt Ones are playing tonight as part of a recommended all-local rock and roll bill at The Knockout (8pm, $5), with Wax Idols and Pow! . Below, listen to a half-hour mixtape Burnt Ones made for Mixtape Mountain : [...]
