Earlier this year, Geoff Geis , solo artist and principal provocateur in the band Pizza! , launched his own (cassette/digital) label, Vanity Projects, to release his album "Princess."

By way of introductions, though, Vanity Projects has just released a free 20-track sampler, "Vanity Loves Company: Autumn/Winter 2011."

come again

Aug 30, 2011, 4:23pm Fmly
come again This weekend, we held the first "Thank You, Come Again" on LA's East side, at Tierra de la Culebra park in Highland Park. We had a tremendously nice time eating potluck, chilling in the shade on one of the hottest days of the summer, and generally enjoying the gorgeous atmosphere created by the people at Arts Corps LA . We're really grateful to them for all that they do, and we hope that they'll host us again! At the top of this post is a picture of Mary and Eli Monolator, who performed a frantic medley of [...]

Something occurred to us when we were asked to help out with tonight's show at The Smell: We love The Smell.

THE MONOLATORS RECORD RELEASE SHOW @ PEHRSPACE

Nov 16, 2010, 11:23am L.A. RECORD
On Saturday, November 6th, 2010, The Monolators put together a silver and ruby gala at Perhspace in Echo Park to celebrate the release of their double EP, Silver Cites/Ruby I'm Changing My Number . The stage area was decorated with string lights and cloudy fabric, creating a dreamy look, while a spread fit for prom kings and queens was set up with punch and snacks. Opening up the show was Hot TV , three guys, a girl, and maybe a pizza place or, in Echo Park's case, a taco truck. Their fun breezy sound reminded me [...]

Download: The Dig, 'You're Already Gone'

Oct 28, 2010, 3:32pm Buzz Bands
Download: The Dig, 'You're Already Gone' Dig this: New York City four-piece the Dig — not to be confused with old '90s faves Dig — named their band in honor of the movie "Dig," the Brian Jonestown Massacre/Dandy Warhols documentary. (I know, that's a lot of Digs in one sentence.) The Dig's sometimes-atmospheric, always-hooky indie-rock only has a little bit in common with the movie's purveyors of psychedelia, though. "Electric Toys," the debut album from singer David Baldwin, singer-bassist Emile Mosseri, keyboardist Erick Eiser and drummer Jamie Alegreir, has the radio-friendly pop-step of bands like the Strokes and Editors (with whom they've [...]

Help The Monolators

Sep 6, 2010, 12:40pm The Devil Has The Best Tuna
Help The Monolators The Monolators From: Los Angeles, California, United States The Monolators were featured on the first ever Devil's blog ( I've Started Something ) and have been regulars ever since. The LA band are looking for a little support to help them finish the production of a 12" vinyl record. They remain unsigned (a travesty that makes me despair of the music industry) and have put out all of their records, since [...]

COBRA LILIES @ AMERICAN LEGION HALL

Sep 23, 2009, 4:10pm L.A. RECORD
Cobra Lillies are a free-for-all freak folk band made up of several Eastside bands. The band began as a side project for The Monolators, and every time I see them they have new members and routines, which have included stomp dancing, cheerleaders, and tonight a flamboyant fashion show sketch to open the show. There were bicycle bells ringing throughout the night and all sorts of weird, down-homey folksy instruments.
