White Mystery play The Hideout on Friday, May 10 Hey, folks! It's time to shrug off that work week and get ready to rock. We're itching to talk about some great shows this weekend featuring White Mystery, The Runaway Five, Metz and more. Ch-ch-check it out. FRIDAY WHITE MYSTERY It's post-4/20, so that means White Mystery has dropped another record for us to bash around to. This year, [...]
White Mystery burn some rare gasoline. Between frontwoman Alex White's magnetism and her brother Francis's fierce drumming, the ginger-locked duo have become a staple of Chicago's live circuit. Unlike the Stripes of the same color, White Mystery come across less like a pair of aliens and more like the garage band from next door. Their shows feel like basement shows no matter the venue, their records like something a childhood friend put down to tape. On their third LP, Mystery continues to find depth in absurdity and absurdity in depth at raucous volumes. While their sophomore effort [...]

In addition to being a day of note for some people, 4/20 also marks the band's fifth birthday. (Probably not a coincidence.) You can stream a track from the new LP below.

Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News Dan Reilly There were thousands of artists in Austin for SXSW , and I saw a lot of them. This year, I decided to challenge myself and write about every band I caught, no matter how much of their set I saw. Most of these "reviews" were pieced together from my illegible notebook scribblings, but that's all I've got. Enjoy... or something. Lord Huron [...]
We began the week with widgeted ditties courtesy of Bandcamp. To forfend jealousy from Soundcloud, we post the following loved ones. (These widget sites can wax pretty green, or so we've read/heard/fabricated.) Our Testing Lab reports that that first widget, of The Blank Tapes, doesn't show "Download," at least not yet. If you want the load, click here. Likewise with the Colleen Green song, so

We watched a ton of music videos from local acts this year. And we determined that music videos are cool, but cool music videos are cooler. So, in the great tradition of year-end listicles, we combed through the lot and have determined these 10 are a cut above the rest due to look, style and creativity. We probably missed a few, and if you think so, feel free to drop us a line in the comments. Onward... 10. SUMMER GIRLFRIENDS -- "Goth Beach [...]
If it had been any other lineup, I probably wouldn't have attended Chicago's Riot Fest 2012 - simply because of its location(s). For one, I loathe the Congress Theater. I'll never forget how their bathrooms look like set pieces from Seven or Saw , or how they let Man Man sound piss poor that one time, or when they closed coat check during a bitter cold New Year's Eve party. The latter which resulted in yours truly getting heat sores all over his chest, all from having to wear a leather jacket on the dance [...]
Happy three-day weekend! Yes, you have Monday off, but the better news is there's so much music to keep you busy.

FRIDAY LASERS AND FAST AND SHIT Much [...]

We're talking Rabble Rabble's epic video shoot at Cole's tonight, the 2nd Annual Rock and Roll Pig Roast at The Standard Bar and Grill on Saturday and The Cell Phones' four-year anniversary party at The Mutiny on Sunday. Let's bark to it, shant we? FRIDAY [...]
Absolutely Not deliver quite the wild ride in a minute thirty. The local rockers merge dance-y punk rock and glammy guitars with unbridled, synth-fueled garage rock for a sound that addictive as diet coke. Their latest release, 20122s Extended , bubbles over with frantic hooks such as on album opener, "Invention," buts it's also apparent on the record's not-as-spastic cuts like, "Hey You," with it's spooky keys and tasty handclaps. LISTEN: “Invention” | Also appearing: White Mystery , The Hussy [...]

Check out the pictures below and if you missed them on this tour be sure to check them at Riot Fest in Chicago or Gonerfest in Memphis this coming fall.
Sure, it's a bummer that both nights of Sigur Ros are sold out. But are you gonna go cry about it? No. You're gonna rock, because it's Sunday and that's what it's all about. First off, you can fill that Icelandic gap with some Japanese pop-rock goodness from girl group legends Shonen Knife, playing with ... Continue reading
