Monday: Cheeseburger @ Knitting Factory 8pm FREE I still haven't seen this band and considering how often they play here I think that's pretty much a crime. Luckily, tonight the band will be hitting the Knitting Factory stage for free as part of the venues weekly Bloggers Delight free shows. Pretty sweet if you ask me, just hold the pickle. Cheeseburger - "Tiger" Tuesday: Dirty Projectors +

Cleveland, OH "Headlines" White Williams on MySpace White Williams on The Hype Machine
School consumed my life last week, so I was not able to get you your weekly release post. Fear not, because I have combined both weeks into one massive post. Week of 11/6: Last week was a week of EPs. It seems that a number of our favorite artists could not wait to give us some new music, so they put out EPs to hold us over while they finish their new albums. The first EP for the week is from one of my [...]
I immediately dismissed White Williams after noticing he was tabbed as the opening act on the Girl Talk/Dan Deacon Hipster Headache 07! tour (sponsored by Dewars.) Then I saw his album art, begging to be filed into the "why can't irony finally die?" category. But upon closer examination, wading into this American Apparel infested territory looked shockingly promising, considering the album art featured two people hitting a hookah and exhaling the word, Smoke. Good enough for me. Unlike his ex-tourmates, Williams' music doesn't sound like it was composed after an all-night snort-fest consisting of 4 Adderrals, [...]
Monday: The Pipettes + Ladybug Transistor @ Gramercy Theater 7pm $20 [tix] The lovely ladies of The Pipettes return to the States for another round of touring, and considering I missed them the first time around I think I pretty much have to see them this week. Too bad it's at Gramercy which is not my favorite of the new venues that opened in the past few months. Luckily, they do have the awesome
Earlier this week I checked out the White Williams record Smoke per a friend's recommendation, and since then the album has pretty much been on a steady loop while I'm at work. Part of the reason is because I've been too busy to pick something else to listen to, but most of the reason is because it's good. Laid back and electro-glitchy in a very Hot Chip kinda way, Smoke is pretty unobtrusive background music to play while you're getting [...]
Good stuff this week. J. Mascis is hitting the skins tonight with his doom metal project Witch at Luna Lounge. Dr. Dog and Delta Spirit play tonight in Hoboken and tomorrow at Bowery Ballroom, but tomorrow's show is already sold out so we'll have to take our pick tonight. What'll it be? Brooklyn or Jersey? With Friday open, you might check out Josh Ritter at Webster Hall. That dude is a
This past Tuesday was a day I was looking forward to for a long time. New music day! White Williams put out his full length debut Smoke on the Tigerbeat6 Label. His New Violence EP definitely had me excited about this release. There are always doubts. Is it going to have the same creative energy? Will I like a full album of this music? Both were answered yes. White Williams seems to put together a barrage of electronic, analog, sampled, and live instrument sounds that at some points come across as [...]
Sitting down tonight to put together this week's edition of The Daily Graboid (a day late, sorry), it dawned on me how close we are to the end of year already. It's hard to believe, but as each chilly night reinforces that fact, the more we'll begin to notice the dwindling amount of good album releases. I'm sure there will be a few gems here and there, but for now the geek in me is focusing on the onslaught of video game releases (hello Super Mario Galaxy , COD4 [...]
I guess I should have shared this when it was originally posted, but I've been too busy wasting my time on Facebook. It's number 92 of Festival City Radio . N ew releases for yesterday, November 6: Bob Trimble - "Night at the Asylum" (0:00) Jeremy Jay - " Light Beam " (5:00) Citay - " First Fantasy " (11:10) [...]
Will you be Grizzly Bear's friend too? As the year draws to a close, it becomes more and more evident that the big guns have already fired. While the number of highly anticipated new albums has dropped precipitously - just compare to a month or two ago - there's still plenty of time for the sleepers to ease on in. Grizzly Bear's EP of covers and re-interpretations and Sigur Ros' dual EPs released on one disc will be at the top of the stack for many record buyers, [...]
Grizzly Bear - Friend [EP] Grizzly Bear - Alligator (mp3) As we approach the end of the year the new release list seems to dwindle. Nevertheless there are still quite a few good albums being released on Tuesday. If you’re heading out to the record store here are a few that we are recommending. If we have left anything noteworthy off please let us know. More new releases and MP3's after the jump...
