It sounds like every other 311 track, which could be a very good or very bad thing, depending on your current level of sobriety. In other news, 311 will host their view own music festival this summer. Set for August 4-6 at Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, FL, the Pow Wow Festival will feature four [...]

5th installment of the Gas Galaxy LP brought to you exclusively by www.yakballz.net Produced by Chapter 7 Design by Oliver Cartwright
Sonny Smith, of Sonny & the Sunsets fame (or by now, in our house anyway, I should probably say 'of Sonny & the Sunsets legend), has gone from my not even being aware of his existence in 2010 to suddenly becoming something of a musical icon, and we're only half way through 2011. I first heard about the 100 Records project when I was contacted about the absolutely brilliant Earth Girl Helen Brown EP (the 500 copies of which they seem to have torn through at a pretty brisk pace), and through [...]

Sonny And The Sunsets just released Hit After Hit (Fat Possum), and they are hitting the road to promote it with month-long North American tour starting June 27 in Vancouver. Until then, you will just have to keep yourself occupied with this video for album track "Reflections On Youth." The clever clip was conceived, directed [...]
Tonight, I'm headed to see the Shivers at Habitat House so in preparation I've been listening to their album Sunset Psalms on repeat. I don't know if this record will ever officially be released but it should. This album is a gem, like the band itself- nearly unknown to most people, but some of the most beautiful music I've had the good fortune to come across. I'd been listening to Charades for some time now so I was amped to hear this one. Keith Zarriello's voice has a weathered weight to it, like he's been through it all but [...]
We are winding down to the last few shows at The Ghost Room before it closes it's doors and tonight Knuckle Rumbler has a great one for you. Blank Fritz (formerly Sunset) , Missions , Spells (formerly MothFight) and Sorne all for only $5. I notice I have been doing a lot of (formerly)'s lately. What's with bands changing their names all the time? And while were on the subject why are they Sunset on the Gorilla vs Bear bill but Blank Fritz on this one? And when did they [...]

The night features all local and awesome talent in the form of Blank Fritz (formerly Sunset), Missions , Spells (formerly [...]
This starts out sounding like an contemporary Thom Yorke meander but then I figure it's still playing so it couldn't be. The original material is courtesy of Versailles textured pop act Phoenix (from their 2009 album Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, the follow-up of which is currently being recorded), a collective we should be all over but have stopped short of honouring on several occasions. Not sure why but it may be because in an odd way they don't quite make sense. How bloody blog-minded of us then to start bringing up their name just because Animal Collective are in to do [...]
Coming off of a highly successful first record, a song appearance on MTV's Skins, and a well-received 100 Records Project, Sonny & the Sunsets ' newest record, Hit After Hit, made a hefty splash when it was released earlier this month. Now, ready to hit the road, frontman Sonny Smith is finding himself riding a wave of much deserved praise, from both fans and critics. In an interview with Consequence of Sound, Smith discusses how the new record was made, and how he still doesn't quite understand the "West coast" phenomenon so many [...]
We're beyond psyched to announce that we're teaming up with our good friends at Dallas' historic Granada Theater this summer to throw the first ever Gorilla vs. Bear Festival , on the evening of Saturday, July 23 . The inaugural lineup couldn't be much more representative of the inspiration and history behind this blog, as it features our current favorite band ( White Denim ), the newest endeavor of one of my favorite rappers of all-time, and the creator of the best album of 2011 to date ( Shabazz Palaces ), the debut of [...]
State cercando il vostro disco per l'estate ormai imminente? Siete dei fanatici del garage pop? Se avete risposto affermativamente ad entrambe le domande, ecco quello che fa per voi. Sonny Smith , poliedrico artista della scena di San Francisco (è infatti sia cantante e compositore che scrittore per il teatro) rispolvera il suo gruppo di freak (che comprende, tra gli altri, gente dei Fresh & Onlys e John Dwyer degli Oh Sees ) e da alle stampe il secondo disco, dopo il debutto Tomorrow Is Alright . Come detto in apertura, qui si [...]
During the show, the band tries to fit in as many songs as possible and play until the sound-man calls curfew.
Charming, '60s-indebted garage-pop done right. Whether through innate temperament or calculated design (though it's likely the former), Sonny Smith is as charming a lo-fi frontman as you're going to find these days. Over the course of two albums billed to Sonny and the Sunsets -- 2009's Tomorrow Is Alright and now Hit After Hit -- he's already mastered the friendly-and-ramshackle-but-pe rfectly-idealized-garage-pop aesthetic. (And if you heard about his recent "100 Records" art installation, you know he's a busy dude and if...

Nicolas Jaar's Clown & Sunset has announced the adoption of 19-year-old Montreal native Valentin Stip into its family. His Anytime Will Do EP will be out May 31 and will hopefully carry on the C&S tradition of not giving a shit and chilling the fuck out. Talking of traditions, the label recently posted a sort of retrospective collection on SoundCloud, featured below. 18 tracks of minimal genius for those of us who believe being horizontal beats being vertical pretty much every time. Valentin Stip on SoundCloud + Lola [...]

Over the past week or so, music videos from a number of local bands sprouted from different soil, including two premieres on Pitchfork TV - the above video for "Reflections on Youth" by Sonny & the Sunsets , and "I Need Seed" by Thee Oh Sees ( viewable on Pitchfork TV ). Speaking of Bay Area bands' recent domination of Pitchfork TV, tUnE-YaRdS ' video for the song "Bizness" still remains in the top 20 most viewed music videos on the channel. [...]
