Daniel Rosen , of Texas hardcore band Bitter End , has put together a show that looks to be the first legitimate hardcore show in Lawrence in quite some time. Billed as "Gig #1," and announcing "HARDCORE IN LAWRENCE IS BACK," the show features Rosen's band, as well as California's Take Offense and Downpresser, along with locals Iron Guts Kelly and Backstabber . Rosen chatted with us about the upcoming show, how it came to be, and upcoming plans for Bitter End.

Eighties-synth loving Swedes Shout Out Louds are touring the fun new album Optica with a stop at Metro Thursday night. I predict there will be dancing.

Kurt Vile is that rare artist who is so confident and focused that he consistently puts out great albums by simply sticking to his knitting. His voice and guitar are unmistakably identifiable yet each new album sounds unique and fresh. His latest album, Walkin on a Pretty Daze , is no exception. Kurt and his band, the Violators, play a sold out show at Lincoln Hall Tuesday night.

Poster for GOAT's First US Tour BY PETER LILLIS Korpilombolo, Sweden is a remote "locality" in northern Sweden. With approximately 530 residents, Korpilombolo recently gained notoriety for being home to the mysterious GOAT, a fast rising and fantastic psychedelic rock band with a penchant for tribal drums, blues-drone freakouts and voodoo-like masks. Wrapping up their first US tour, GOAT played sold-out shows at some of our top venues, including The Music Hall of Williamsburg, Austin Psych Fest and the Empty Bottle. We were fortunate enough to catch their Chicago date, [...]]]> text/html 2013-05-11T18:54:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4945133/black-moth-super-rainbow-plays-metro/

CHAPPO + Nevada Color + Chupacabra 6119 Penn / 05.06 / 9:00 / $10 Words by Brendan Last time of Montreal came to town, I had to go. They're one of my favorite all-time bands, so I wasn't going to miss that. I met some friends there early on to catch the first opener, when the place still wasn't packed. Not having any expectations, I was kinda blown away by the energy of CHAPPO . [...]]]> text/html 2013-05-02T14:13:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4931513/disappears-on-live-from-studio-10/
We went to Chicago last weekend for C2E2, and as I do in every city we visit, I hit up a bunch of record stores. And as I do every time I visit a record store in a different city, I asked for the hook-up on the best band I've probably not heard of back home. The dude at Reckless in Wicker Park suggested Disappears , saying that they were "probably the best live band in Chicago right now." I'm currently spinning their first LP, Lux (out on [...]]]> text/html 2013-05-01T06:07:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4924872/our-live-life-vol-4-april-concerts-in-chicago/

As seen below, April includes two of their favorite sets of the year.

This is exactly the kind of news I needed to hear today. Jeff Mangum will reunite Neutral Milk Hotel later this year for a tour! Only five dates have been announced so far, but considering the last tour was in 1998, this is a great start. It all kicks off October 22nd in the band's hometown of Athens, GA. Stay tuned for more. 10/22 Athens, GA @ 40 Watt Club (w/ Elf Power) 10/23 Athens, GA @ 40 Watt Club (w/ Half Japanese) 10/25 Asheville, NC @ Thomas Wolfe Auditorium (w/ Half Japanese [...]]]> text/html 2013-04-28T17:22:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4919683/show-review-893-the-current-presents-cloud-cult/


Yesterday was easily the most beautiful day we've had in Minneapolis this year. So, why not bike to the Cloud Cult CD Release Show at First Ave ? The band would have wanted me to enjoy the weather and protect the earth. I mean that. Craig Minowa and the rest of his earth-loving, big-hearted cohorts always seem so appreciative and modest that I wouldn't be surprised if they cared about each member of the audience individually. With a full house, Cloud Cult officially introduced us to the live experience that is Love .

The Central Social Aid & Pleasure Club , a beacon for live music west of the 405, will be closing in June, and the new ownership of the Santa Monica nightspot is expected to remodel the room and make it a lounge, multiple sources say. At the location of the former 14 Below, the Central SAPC made its mark in the rock, hip-hop and electronic worlds, hosting Tuesday night indie residencies and welcoming artists such as Skrillex, ?uestlove, Javelin, Penguin Prison and myriad others to its cozy room and offering shows precious few Westside L.A. venues could [...]]]> text/html 2013-04-26T17:02:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4917509/tonight-chapel-hill/
