If you want a "Contact High" from Architecture in Helsinki at the El Rey, we've got free tickets for that.
Stereogum has partnered with W Hotels to deliver a series of intimate concert performances from some of our favorite artists. First up is one of Stereogum's 40 Best New Bands Of 2010 , Active Child , who played an exclusive session for us at the W San Francisco . Over the summer Active Child released the delicately woozy debut album You Are All That I See , pushing his gossamer soul-inflected new wave to new heights. He's collaborated with How To Dress Well, booked a tour with M83, and as you'll see in the Session, developed [...]
While the summer is gone, I always look forward to the crispness of autumn. It's a time for changes, swapping tanks for sweaters, and flip flops for fun fall boots. While you may be pining for summer's music fest, you will be excited to know that with the passing of October brings another lovely event, CMJ. We are excited to be attending this year and wanted to share with your some of our picks for the 2011 festival: ANR Active Childe Ambassadors Art Vs.

Architecture in Helsinki is a self-described modernist pop group from Australia that has been getting rave reviews from both the American and Australian press. Their 2007 single, "Heart it Races" got them a spot on the ARIA charts and on Billboard's Top Electronic Albums charts as well as attention from NPR and the BBC . Their 2011 release 'Moment Bends' isn't doing too shabby either, hitting number 12 on ARIA already. You can buy tickets them on November 2 when they play the El Rey, or you can try to win tickets! And-we will [...]

Sitting on your laurels, much less hiding them from view, is notoriously difficult when you know you've got something amazing to share. That's why so many musicians are excited to see what the world thinks of their new material. But with the way the music world works, often holding on to a finished project for [...]

Back in May we brought you a very ear friendly indie-pop jam "Turn Around" by Massachusetts upstarts Lunch (which has since disappeared from their Bandcamp page but is still streaming over at Yvynyl ). continue reading >>

Studio cuts of "Crazy Girl" and " Things Change " were just posted by Dom after being performed live in prior shows. Dom has been on the troysnoise radar for almost a year now, enjoy the latest. And enjoy this one off their most recent EP. Dom is in Williamsburg tomorrow night, Glasslands 9pm.

Way, waaaayy back in the early stages on 2010 we were won over by the addictive chimes of DOM's "Living In America" single. continue reading >>

Want some more of Dom's pop stylings to cap off the summer? Of course you do. And luckily the West Mass group just dropped two new tracks this morning. The first is "Crazy Girl" which grabs at some classic tremolo surf guitar and plays more like a jam than anything Dom usually joins the conversation with. "Things Change" plays similarly to "Damn" off of their recent Family Of Love EP, but with a little room for the bass to do it's thing. Check them both below. Crazy Girl by DOM [...]

Dom have put a couple new tracks up over on their Soundcloud page. Take a listen to the guitar heavy track Things Change . Happy Thursday. things change by DOM

If you're in the Brooklyn, N.Y. area this Saturday and you're not at the Glasslands Gallery, you'll be missing out. Why? Because DOM, Adventure, and Vacationer will be playing for free (if you have the Rdio app on your smart phone). And if you don't have that app, well it's only $5 with RSVP . Yeah, you're not going to want to miss this show, if only because you just might hear some new material from DOM. Apparently the Worcester, Mass. natives have been playing previously unreleased tunes on tour lately, like "Crazy Girl" [...]

Tweet Yesterday evening DOM , the guys who brought us the party summer hit of 2010 "Living In America" dropped two new tracks. "Crazy Girl" has been played live numerous times before and you might've seen some of the live versions of it kicking around online, but this time we have the studio version. With a rumbling, thumping, 502s surf sound it's not like the electronic haze we've heard that runs through most of their previous work [...]
