Shrines (formerly Sundress, This Old House, ODDYSSEY) played their second show ever under their new moniker at the Sound Dessert SXSW Day Party. The guys entranced the audience with their shoegazey electronic sound that's just as laid back as they are. Based in Austin, Shrines added some cool local Tejas flavor to the lineup. If you too are a local, then swing by the Mohawk on April 4th to see them in action. Also check out the videos below! Who Do You? Untitled

Esta semana nos tendremos que contentar con el [...]
Today's music was found using Google Maps. Enjoy. : Chelsea Light Moving - Frank O'Hara Hit : At some point this Thurston Moore-lead project is going to put out an official album, and I'll be there to throw my money at them. The three tracks released so far (this one arrived in celebration of Moore turning 54) have all been great pieces of indie rock. If anything does come out, it'll by way of Matador. : Letting Up Despite Great Faults - Visions : I wasn't aware of this, but apparently this act is now largely [...]
Let's talk about local music. Do you ever feel like you're obligated to support local music even though the scene really sucks? [Or to be PC, isn't quite your cup of tea?] It's one thing to support local venues, especially the independent ones; that's kind of a no-brainer. But adhering to the ethos that just because a band exists in your city/town, you have to like it? I don't follow. I
Monday, July 30, 2012 Today's Quick Mention: It's been a bit since I've directed you to my Tumblr creation, Confessions Of A Dangerous Mind, so that's what I'm doing now. Go there and do some reading, friends. Today's music was found using Google Maps.

Here is our regular round-up of the recent best of the inbox, blogs and internet for you to peruse, scrutinise and download for your undoubted listening pleasure and aural delight. First up is a second taste from the forthcoming Two Gallants long player The Bloom And The Blight . While previous offering Broken Eyes was a gorgeous, folky delight, My Love Won't Wait indulges the band's heavier side with a rollicking tune that is equally thrilling in a very different way. She Keeps Bees also keep the [...]

So after a few weeks to gather myself and edit the plethora of photos I foolishly thought I could power through in a few nights (No. Nope. Not at all) here is the official SUPER LATE SXSW coverage from Kata Rokkar. Yup, remember that music festival last month where everyone in the business came to Austin TX and watched 20 bands, drank free beer, ate free brisket, and slept three hours every night only to wake up and do it all over again? Yeah well while everyone else is getting ready for Coachella, I am still reminiscing over the overly [...]
So we typically toss a video onto a post when highlighting a new band or a show preview or something and let you draw your own conclusion about it. Sometimes we throw a change-up... strike that - let’s call it a round up. Most of these videos are of bands we have previously talked about here on Draw Us Lines, so we won’t be telling you much about those bands themselves, just some musings that really aren’t worth a damn. If a picture is worth 1000 words, then a video must be worth a million. Hold on to your hats! [...]
