Looks like the Leg Sweeper boys are taking a bit of a hiatus to, you know, not over-saturate the market, or whatever. But fret not, because in the meantime the dudes have made their tunes available for free download via their Bandcamp page . Go do it already. MP3: Leg Sweeper - High Flying Madonna -w-

Josh, Max, and Thomas of Sleepies sent us these answers to our questions in this next installment of the q and also a series. q: What is the last song you (really) heard? j: I've been listening to "Oh!" by Sleater-Kinney on repeat for a few weeks now. We went on a Northwest tour back in January and I've kind of just stayed there. m: "Poor Unfortunate Souls" by Ursula the Sea Witch from The Little Mermaid. t: Beck [...]

Day 2 of 35 Conferette I opted to skip most of the daytime shows (besides Dr. Dog) and instead headed into the night at Haileys to see the closest thing to a "punk show" 35 Conferette had put together this year - that being Leg Sweeper, Record Hop, and Japanther. Leg Sweeper got things started with their 2-man brand of Wavves-style nerd rock, its all partying, drinking, and girls - so I guess its the natural evolution of subjects the Beach Boys started so many years ago. This band has great potential to blow-up if they [...]

Slutty Sleepover This Dallas, Texas duo's innate cheeky suggestiveness is immediately noticeable from their name and their song 'Sexy Weekend'. But this and the rest of their latest EP is more reigned in, no brainer punk that hits the right buttons in a blank-faced Weezer kind of way. Their earlier demos on the other hand are all raucous, fast-paced, gritty punk rock jams. Taylor Stolly and Justin Gomez's songs are for the most part incredibly simple, consisting of no more than guitar, drums and [...]

Don't get us wrong, there is still a Giggle Party-shaped hole in our lives, but the pain has been somewhat dulled by the Leg Sweeper-shaped clump of Spackle we've haphazardly globbed over it with. It's almost as if a changing of the guard has occured; with Giggle Party heading to San Fran earlier this summer and the carefree duo of Leg Sweeper relocating to town a mere months before. In our minds at least our two favorite good-timing party punk outfits will be forever connected. So it only seems fitting that both debuted songs this week [...]

Date 5/13/10 Location Red 7 Doors 9pm Tickets Tickers @ Door I will personally guarantee that the Japanther show at Red 7 on Thursday night will bring the damn house down. Mark it down. The lo-fi garage rockers will bring Muhammadali , Legsweeper , and Come and Take It while DJ Timmy Hefner spins [...]
