With Gang Wizard , it's best to Catch as Catch Can. They put out so much product you could throw your back out trying to harness it all, so take it easy, Jack. If one were forced to give GW's brand of evil a Name, I'd say they are essentially a noise-freak improv troupe with one foot in the gutter and one in the No Fun Fest. They never shirk their duties, delivering the dungeon-dwelling dregs album in, album out, and The Atlas of Cancer [...]
Monday: The Death Set, The Mae Shi, + Ponytail @ Market Hotel 8pm $8 Three awesome bands playing under one roof and I'm still stuck here in Chicago. Sigh, it's cool I'm heading to the White Sox game out here today but you guys should go rock out and get sweaty watching these super energetic bands. Seriously, get out there. The Death Set - "Heard It All Before" The Mae Shi - "Run to Your Grave"

There's no good way to do this. I could spend a couple hours trying to truly mix this and make it sound good, or I could post if alphabetically and go watch the Celtics beat the Lakers. Hmmm... Alex and the Horribles - "Eskimo Girl" Autodrone - "Through the Backwoods" Bell - "Echinacea" Bridges and Powerlines - "Half a Cent" Brilliant Sweaters - "Sexy Genius" Bryan Scary and the Shredding Tears
Who: Monotract Location: Brooklyn, NY (via Miami, FL) Listen: Monotract - "Cafe y Kaka" ATJ Slot: Galapagos Front Stage, 4:30pm Monotract began their existence as an improvisational band. On stage they would pulse and pound with the best of them, and they still do just with a bit more of a song structure. Sure, it may not be the structure you're used to but it is still considered structure.

Ladytron - "Ghosts" With only limited exposure to the new Ladytron album Velocefiro , it seems that the Liverpudlians are still painting from their usual neon black palette. But "Ghosts" feels a bit different, straining in schizophrenic directions. It starts with an unexpected tough guy swagger but is then upended by maybe the sweetest, most playful vocal Helen Marnie has ever committed to wax. Usually she's H-242 the robot girl, but even singing of guilty ghosts and solo drinking sessions her nimble melody line is almost, dare I say, flirtatious? The knobs [...]
