by kevin diamond Here's my beef: If a set's supposed to start at midnight, and I get there at 12:20, that show should still be going on. Instead, I entered Public Assembly to see Screaming Females , the band I wanted to see most this weekend breaking down their gear, the dudes from pow wow! shaking their heads. "You missed 'em." How were they? I ask "They killed it." Of course they fucking did. I was disappointing, but I didn't have the time to dwell on it. I was [...]

What : Pop Tarts Suck Toasted's Northside Fest Showcase When : Tonight, 8pm! Where : Public Assembly , 70 N. 6th St. Cost : $10 What to Expect : With 12-bands on two stages this is simply the most bang for your buck throughout the entire Northside Festival. Not only is it big in terms of numbers it's big in bands as well with some true up-and-coming acts like Screaming Females, Dinowalrus, and Kilgore Trout Is Dead all getting time on the stages. Of course I've made [...]

Probably the best value of the Northside Festival is happening @ Public Assembly (70 North 6th Street) on Friday. The show was curated by Pop Tarts Suck Toasted and is sure to be filled with awesomeness. 7:30pm 21+? $10 __ The Front Room Lineup__ Brilliant Sweaters Description: I hear they like Green Day (and not in a bad way either) Listen: Sexy Genius (mp3) Screaming Females Description: Mind-blowing rock and/or roll from New [...]
Scouting Report : Since most of the big name bands I've reviewed recently have proven to be almost uniformly uninspiring, I've decided to scout the action in the minors this week. As fate would have it, I've also had the pleasure of seeing both bands in this upcoming match-up live, which is good because finding out anything else about these two "fuck fame" squads is some needle-in-the-haystack stuff. Lo-fi punxters Tyvek (or Tivjek, or Tjvek, or Tyvektyvektyvek, or whatever the whims of the polyethylene manufacturer presumably dictate) hail from the lovely city of Detroit, at least [...]
Screaming Females' album "Power Move" is one of those records that got me addicted from the first chord of the first track. They are the best thing to come out of New Jersey in a long time. The album came out back in April and it has been something I have wanted to talk about [...]

Click to enlarge. Finally pulling out the bullhorn on this weekend's permit-less backyard-and-rooftop festival, Hillstock, after initial concern for blowing up the event's spot. But, by now, you're e... Continue reading ""Brooklyn D.I.Y. Festival" Hillstock Takes Place This Weekend, With Screaming Females, the Eskalators, and Air Waves" >
Screaming Females are coming for your children.

Who : No Age / Deerhunter / Dan Deacon When : August 2nd Where : Williamsburg Waterfront On Sale : FREE (?)

"That 3 minute guitar solo was awesome." Believe it or not, I said that-aloud, to people!-about a month ago, during a set by Screaming Females at The Trumbelplex in lovely Woodbridge, Detroit, Michigan, USA. I'm not wont to pipe such an utterance aloud, nor under my breathe, nor think it in the least. Ever. But I did, [...]

Sigh. I really wish Meg White would start a solo project so that I could report on the activities of the other half of the White Stripes. I guess Jack White is just the prolific one. We've already known Jack's latest project is plotting a tour , but now we know the opening act. Screaming Females are all set to open up for The Dead Weather this July. We've posted the tour dates again below, just in case you forgot. Screaming Females/The Dead Weather tour [...]
So here are my favorites from this year. I haven't gotten to stuff like Fake Problems and My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult and Meat Puppets (when emusic downloads refresh, fuck yeah!), but here's what I have heard so far! Fuck that Horrors trying to mix shoegaze with bad vocals garbage! Everyone was like, "Oh hey, they've grown up!" So I was like, "Aight, I'll give this a listen." Sooooo not cool. Art Brut - Art Brut Vs. Satan | Sample Art Brut's always been a pretty entertaining little [...]

Treat Me Like Your Mother The second single from The Dead Weather's debut album Horehound is the stomping 'Treat Me Like Your Mother'. A more aggressive organ-ode than their previous single 'Hang You From The Heavens', this one has an almost Rage Against The Machine-rock out and rap by member Jack White in the final verse! Combining the aggressive energy of Jack White seen in The White Stripes' more rambunctious songs, with The Kills' Alison Mosshart's sexual tension in her stuttery, harsh vocals, with an awesomely retro-sounding [...]
