photos by Bryan Bruchman / BTRtv ; words by Bill Pearis No Joy / Weekend @ Glasslands, 5/17/2013 No Joy 's tour swung through NYC this week, with two shows for the Montreal shoegazers, first at Mercury Lounge (5/15) and then at Glasslands last night (5/17). The band's new album, Wait to Pleasure , is very much [...]
No Joy - E No Joy - Blue Neck Riviera If you happen to have the patience to peruse through the past few hundred or so of our picks, it will probably become more and more apparent just how much we enjoy the Mexican Summer roster and back catalogue, 'cause good god! they've put together a ton of quality releases over the years... Here are a few of our faves: Lilacs & Champagne and [...]
By now most folks know where I stand on the present sensitive folk movement. Mainly that I’m over it. So today I thought I would prove I'm capable of more than just bitching and post some bands I actually like. And no, none of them formed in the 90’s. In my latest search for bands [...] The post Songs I like: Ladies Night appeared first on Your Music Is Awful.com .
Denis Nazarov Though at least some of his current profile comes from being associated with the same Montreal scene that produced Grimes, those expecting more electro-pop cotton candy from Devon Welsh of Majical Cloudz had best adjust their expectations. His full-length debut Impersonator is electronic, yes, but is also spare, haunting, and unflinchingly emotional, circling heavy lyrical topics like death and desire. One would expect that at the Matador company picnic, he'll be keeping more company with Mike Hadreas of Perfume Genius than, say, Belle & Sebastian's Stuart [...]
Craig Kief Spring is only barely here - the past few days' weather notwithstanding - but the concert announcement machine is already making eyes at Autumn with the unveiling of a couple of pretty high profile tours coming through town when the leaves start to change and the days get shorter. Sam Beam, the walking epitome of bearded folk music, released Ghost On Ghost - his fifth album as Iron & Wine - last month, but until now only had Spring dates in the northeast and Europe confirmed [...]

Clinic have been around for a long time. Their debut album, Internal Wrangler , came out when I was just starting high school and I still remember my best friend Josh hyping them as a less bombastic, mellower version of our then favorite UK rock group, Radiohead. Skip forward some 13 years later and last night was my first opportunity to see Clinic live — albeit without Josh, who was forced to work late in Sacramento (adulthood? fuck) — at the Rickshaw Stop. Canadian show openers No Joy lived up to their [...]
Photos and words by Scott Sheff The get-up of surgical masks and scrubs may be a tongue-in-cheek poke at its own name (and homage to bands Crime and The Residents) , but the eclectic sounds of Liverpool’s post-punk revival /noise rock band Clinic were delivered with surgical precision Wednesday night at The Troubadour. With lead singer Ade Blackburn’s distinct voice and the band’s use of unique, non-conventional instruments such as a harmonium and melodica, the live experience is nothing short of enthralling and infectious. Early arrivers were treated to two bands ready to bust onto [...]

Nick Bostick That Arcade Fire will release a new record this year - possibly/probably produced by or at least involving James Murphy - is pretty much a given. But also a given is that it won't be out until Fall, at the earliest, because a) it's already Spring and it's not done, and b) Fall is still when all the big records come out and this is about as big as they get. It would be nice to be able to say that Arcade Fire violinist Sarah Neufeld will be able [...]
by Bill Pearis No Joy 's new album, Wait to Pleasure , came out last week via Mexican Summer. Produced by Violens' Jorge Elbrecht, the album goes beyond the group's pummeling shoegaze start, showing off previously unheard textures, melody and beauty. They can still attain tinitus-level volume, but they've got other cards too. You can stream it via Spotify, and check out their new video for the LP's almost Cocteau Twins-y "Hare Tarot Lies" below. As mentioned, [...]
![[Album Review] No Joy- Wait to Pleasure](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4928041_lg.jpg)
by Tiana Feng Rating: Release Date: April 23rd, 2013 Label: Mexican Summer Following up on 20102s Ghost Blonde, No Joy proved themselves more than just shoegazers with this year's release of Wait to Pleasure . In fact it's really hard to be gazing off while listening to this masterpiece in cacophony. [...]
May is looking almost as crazy as April on the show front. And this time there isn't a Coachella to blame it on. You just need to blame it on how awesome the bay area is! Now, got do some rocking.

You can see them perform at Showbox SoDo (tickets are available HERE ). [ CoS ] Wampire are coming up on the [...]
